      I agree, I think he is a huge downgrade from Courtois, Chelsea are significantly weakened by this

      That's stating the obvious. Courtois is in an elite bracket with De Gea, Oblak and Neuer which obviously Kepa is not in.

      Has nothing to do with being blocked by De Gea. Kepa is 23/24 and has made 1 appearance, not even playing friendlies. His first call up came because Pepe Reina was injured.
      He isnā€™t in the potential bracket anymore, near on mid twenties isnā€™t potential, and for that money he has to already be performing at a top level. 6/7 clean sheets last season in a team thatā€™s relatively defensive and relatively strong. Heā€™s bounced around a few different clubs, to the lower division within the last couple years and is being vastly overrated by people that probably hadnā€™t even heard of him a few days ago. Oh, and his kicking is piss poor.

      Heā€™s not close to playing for Spain because he does stuff like this;

      LFCReds logic:

      A goalie from another team makes a mistake: He is not very good
      Alisson joins Liverpool: We need to remember all goalies make mistakes

      Bilbao finishing 16th out of 20 does not make them strong and at age 23 (won't turn 24 for another 7mths) has basically the same amount of starts (53) in a top league as Alisson does (59) at age 25. Alisson is not "proven at all levels" any more or any less than Kepa is, and both come with considerable amount of risk. Alisson giving up 3 goals on what, 7 shots? in the world cup is not saying much.

      I am not saying Kepa is worse, equal or better than Alisson, but people get a little butt hurt when someone is not calling Alisson world class.

      "Tottenham have become the first Premier League club to go an entire summer without signing a single player since the transfer window was created in 2003." :lmao:

      Pochettino must be wishing he did not sign that 5yr extension just a few months ago.

      Whatā€™s it got to do with Alisson and people apparently getting ā€œbutt hurtā€? Iā€™m commenting on Kepa, didnā€™t even mention our keepers... I know you are still upset over the love of your life Karius not being number 1 now and being replaced by Alisson but you have to let sh*t go and realise not every talk about a keeper goes back to him.

      I don't get people's obsession with Karius. When have i mentioned him in this discussion that he keeps getting brought up? and yes, Alisson is relevant because my original comment was in response to someone (Heimdal?) saying that Kepa's fee is "batshit crazy" while "at least Alisson had demonstrated his ability at the highest level", when in reality they both have played the same amount of games in a top league prior to their respective transfer and while Alisson did play in the world cup it's not like he did a whole lot in it either.

      Oblak Elite and Alisson isn't? You can't say anything good about Alisson. You only have 500 posts, you probably are Karius, Mignolet or Bogdan. Or maybe KarMigBog. Like ManBearPig from Southpark, but with bad goalkeepers.

      Does not being a top 5 goalie in the world mean Alisson is not good?  ???
