Krul is really overrated on here.

Sure, he used to be quality, but that was before his serious injuries. Last season he had the worst save rate in the Dutch league. There's a reason Newcastle let him go.

Whoever Ben Roberts recommends.

 

[LamieRobertson]

100% he'll start with Ryan.

Aye

 

[Albion my Albion]

Aye

Aye, Aye, Captain Lamie!

There really are some twats on here, it gets quite embarrassing.

Ryan all day long.

Mäenpää, Mr. Hughton will start with Ryan that's a given I would have thought.

 

[scousefan]

Krul.

Ryan is playing in Australia on Tuesday.

He'll need his kip.

I think this is a key issue. Ryan won't be at his best - whatever that is?

 

[Geestar]

Krul.

it will be Ryan.

whether it should be or not is another matter..

Krul all day long against WBA. They need to work on Ryan in coaching.

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Ryan. Did okay at Watford.

I agree Maennpa should be added to this poll.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

I thought the Flying Finn was the No. 2 keeper. Krul is third choice.

 

[HastingsSeagull]

Ryan for me. Krul is a project back from injury who MIGHT take over in a week or two once Ryan has had his proper chance not his half chance (so far).

 

[Weststander]

If Maenpaa was going to start PL match then Hughton would have already made that decision. Why would he do it after acquiring Krul?

To have three keepers in competition for the first choice slot. Hughton and Roberts have obviously planned this.

 

[Brugesboy]

Ryan should still be first choice but he needs to step up his game now.

Don't really understand his performances for the moment, at Bruges he was very reliable, in all his games I only remember him making one huge mistake.

He made some really spectacular saves, was very capable of distributing the ball and was one of the main reasons we won the cup and reached the quarter-final in the Europa league.

But since he left for Valencia it seems he hasn't really improved and lost his confidence a little which he had plenty of back then.

 

[Blues Rock DJ]

Not having a go at the bloke. Ryan makes world class saves and is better technically than DS imho. It's the fact that you know he has a potential simple mistake in him every game that's the worry. I really do hope he proves himself, but having a keeper with those kind of prone mistakes is the last thing we need if trying to stay up.

forget DS, he's history !!

I can't see Krul coming on loan to be 3rd choice here, so it will be interesting. Especially if Ryan is suffering from long flights after international duty.

 

[Ninja Elephant]

Tim Krul because we're playing against Tony HOOFBALL Pulis. Krul is taller and more dominant, Ryan relies on his reactions more which is fine for pretty much every game this season, apart from West Brom.

Ultimately, it's too soon to be talking about this. Ryan being away with Australia is a massive opportunity for Krul, he can train with just Maenpaa and Sanchez and really get his eye back in. It'll be thursday before Ryan is back, probably not even straight into training that day, or just a shorter session. I think Krul has the week to show Ben Roberts and Hughton by association that he's the man, he should start. We're going to spend the whole week working on defending set pieces, and hurling Shane Duffy at Krul as practice for what's to come. Ryan won't get the same preparation time and he's not seen West Brom before, or anything like what they're going to do.

I would pick Krul, 100%.
