    Voted as the Best player in Euro 2020? But somehow a bench player in PSG?
    That's not good.

    He started the season later because of the Euros. I believe (and I hope) this is the reason!

    PSG really likes Navas and he's been a great big game keeper. IMO they will rotate with an eye on Donna as the true number one next year or after

    I am beginning to think he made a mistake moving there.

    I think the bigger mistake was Juve not going all in on Donna. Szczęsny is a good keeper but he's not a top level guy imo, and Donna is the kind of keeper that can keep you in the league hunt if not win a champions league.

    Agreed just like Perin going to juve just to rot on the bench

    Yes, it was a pity that Perin's career was blighted by poor choices, from staying too long at Genoa to that move to Juventus.

    He just turned 23, give him a break. I don't understand why people act like he's supposed to be some phenomenal player, give him time.

    Cost psg and his country dearly. That should of been a routine save last night.

    But Dolla is a multi millionaire. I doubt he actually gives a shit.

    Donnarumma is the #1. He started the season late so Navas played the first 5-6 games, since then I believe Donnarumma has played 1 game more and has played in all the important games for the most part. PSG tried to move Navas but couldn’t due to his large salary, I believe Navas makes a bit more than Donnarumma and is on contract until 2024, so PSG needs to keep him involved in order to move him. I am sure he will be gone this summer as they learned the hard way that keepers need to play consistently and a 55-45 split is not ideal.

    out of anything we need to worry about.... goaltending is the last on the list (along with central midfielders).

    Donnarumma 23 yrs
    Carnescchi 21 yrs

    Our problem with Donnaruma is that he has no competition. Where are the Italian goaltenders? Serie B? Sirigu is still the backup at relegated Genoa. Cragno? Gollini is the backup at Tottenham and actually was on the list to be picked when Meret (another flop) went out

    There is no issue with Donnarumma. He will be our #1 for the next decade and will be a top keeper throughout the next decade.

    PSG was the wrong move for him. Should have stayed in Milan. That said I don't know what the issue is. Players can dip in form, what's important is that he bounces back. He just won MVP a major tournament last summer. Let's have a bit of confidence in him

    Meret isn't a flop.

    Cragno is serviceable.

    Cernesecchi is a very good prospect.

    Donna is staying at PSG and will play more games from the sound of things.

    Inter are looking at Onana (Ajax keeper). They want someone who can really pass the ball. Donna and Meret are weak only in that area.
