Barthez on the way out?

After Ferguson doing a GH on it and dropping Barthez last weekend, Barthez feels that his career is over and that will probably be sold at teh end of the season. The article is here

There are a few nice names in the frame for his replacement; the the most promising of them IMO is Niemi. Great prospect.

I'd go for Robinson myself. I think he could be a top class keeper, and considering Leeds' current financial position, I think he'll be available in the Summer.

LOL... It says that Barthez came from Marseille for £7.8million. Just goes to show you, you can't believe everything you read in the Sun. :rolleyes:

If we are selling him, I'd love to see Rustu take his place. He is an excellent keeper.

the 2 words linked to this report make me ignore it:

Brad Friedel's been mentioned aswell as Rustu, Robinson, Niemi etc. Out of those lads I'd go for Rustu probly. He should give Roy Carroll a proper stint in goals though, he's done ok for yis when he's played.

Personally i think Paul Robinson Is a great prospect for the future. Ricardo is a decent keeper aswell he played deadly in his last match when he saved d penno!!

Canizares is also being mentioned out fo contract next year sell now or lose out type situatiuon he is a class keeper.

dont forget that he also gave away the penno!!!Friedel or the chelsea lad Cudicini would be great replacements
