If he went to Seria A and started growing his hair and wearing a head band, he might end up with a wife like Buffon's

Given def the man for the moment but for the first time in a while I don't think that Shay being injured is a complete disaster. Looks like we might have two quality keepers!Smile

When QPR get promoted Paddy Kenny will be playing in the EPL to so heres hoping he gets a recall , if Given doesnt leave Citeh during the summer Westwood has to take over the number 1 spot!!! If Shay gets a move to a lower EPL team or even if he gets a random notion to play in the MLS or wherever he'll get games week in week out id have him number 1....

I've been watching Westwood improve at Coventry during the past couple of years. He is definitely EPL standard and will be a great replacement for Given. That said, I'd rather that Given remains as our first choice for the next couple of seasons allowing Westwood to mature a bit more.
Westwood is certainly getting lots of practice at The Ricoh thanks to a dodgy defence (ok, also a dodgy midfield and a dodgy attack).   He would have been at an EPL team last season, but Coventry couldn't get any money for him due to his short contract. I suspect he may go to a 'big' club, possibly as their second choice keeper, which isn't the best for Ireland.

I'd prefer him to go to an EPL club then to Celtic anyway - the higher the level he's playing at the better obviously.
 
I do fear for Shay's future though. He's now banjaxed both his shoulders which is clearly a pretty big problem for a 'keeper - I'm afraid he's going to be very injury prone during the twilight of his career. I hope I'm wrong of course, but I don't think it looks great. And his club situation hardly helps either.

Apparently Leeds have made an early approach for him - Which I would beleive as I have heard rumours that Kasper Schmeichel is off to Villa for 5m - and of course he is the perfect price for Leeds....free.
 
Even though I am a Leeds fan I wouldnt be sure its the best move. Premier League is where he should be although it would be better than going to someone like Wigan etc IMO. Villa or Sunderland off the top of my head may want him

Everton and Leicester apparently going at it for him, it's a tough call. He could potentially be the Toffee's number 1, but if Howard's stays on form he could face sitting on the bench all season. A number 1 place guaranteed with Sven and a promotion push, although risk involved with that as well.

Just wonder does he regret not choosing England now? There would only been Hart ahead of him and he was poor at times this year

Its simple really if Everton want him that badly , Westwood will have to ask Moyes will he start the season as number if not Leicester would be a superb option.....This move could define his career for the better or the worse , he is a big fish in a small pond at Coventry!!! Howard has had a good solid season again so its hard to know where he will end up!!!

He was playing at Carlisle when we noticed him Clonbhoy he never had the option to play for England while he was down in League 1, sure there was Foster , Hart , James , Robinson and Carson ahead of him 2 years back!!! Im sure he's over the moon to be our future number 1 Clap

Sunderland are set to open talks with the Coventry City goalkeeper Keiren Westwood before the weekend.

Westwood is available on a free transfer and, with knee trouble likely to sideline Craig Gordon until late autumn, Steve Bruce is keen to sign Westwood as competition for his young Belgian goalkeeper Simon Mignolet.

Bruce has said he hopes to make "eight or nine" new signings this summer and already has his eye on another free transfer, Birmingham City's Seb Larsson.

Wigan Athletic's Charles N'Zogbia, also admired by Newcastle United, remains one of his prime targets, with the Blackpool pair David Vaughan and DJ Campbell also on the list.

Blessed to have quality keepers. In a much stronger position than a lot of countries.
 
Hopefully he is going there as number 1.
