    Not really tested but you could see today he’s a couple of levels ahead of Joe Hart in terms of distribution.

    Played one or two excellent passes that put us on the front foot straight away. Very promising.

    He is the perfect Hart replacement. Has all the leadership skills that Hart had, but I do think he is a better keeper than Hart overall. He is so comfy with the ball at his feet and that makes a huge difference to us.

    As comfortable a debut as a keeper could dream of, but as said his use of the ball is several levels above hart which will be invaluable this season.

    Best signing in the league this summer. I am very confident in this. More to come from him as well.

    Only really had 2 shots right at him, one powderpuff and one quite powerful.

    Should get him a chair to sit on and rest inside the goal, he is old and if we play like that might not need to get up too much.

    Sometimes you just know you’re onto a winner. Haven’t felt this confident about our keeper for years.

    Not got a clue what your talking about, we were that good his Dad could have played and kept a clean sheet, thought that was pretty obvious what I meant considering I already praised the whole team today.

    Was told he wants to play in the world cup which is 2 years away, so could well do, maybe could be his swansong though, so hopefully all well he is here till then.

    He said in his interview with sky before the game that he doesn't feel anywhere near close to retirement. I hope we have an option for a 2nd year. He could easily do a Buffon and play to early 40s.

    Kasper Schmeichel here for 10 in a row.

    He's only a year older than McGregor when he went to the huns and he played for them for 5 seasons.

    Not felt this secure in our goalie since Forster's second stint.

    Rodgers confirmed that we do have an option or another year.

    Even if we didn't, there's nothing stopping us offering him an extension.

    Let the man fall further in love with the club then hopefully Matt O'Riley has developed a Danish man crush on him and stays as long as Kasper does :56:

    If O’Riley stays as long as Kasper, 5 year deal anyone? :BR1:
