    Begovic has been mentioned on Twitter a couple of times.

    Played 46 games for QPR last season.
    Now that would be sensational 
    Not a chance we sign him, i know for a fact he wants to sit on the bench and get paid. FACT
    I have no reason to doubt you @Redhenry


    I am confused as to why that’s the case though. He must’ve made a decent living at Chelsea/Bournemouth/Stoke etc. 

    If he doesn’t want to play football anymore, surely he can retire?

    Anyone know how he got on at QPR last season? 

    Was their team captain too. 

    37 so obviously a short-term fix, hopefully they have an idea for the long-term option in the following seasons. 
    In terms of clean sheets, was the 6th best keeper in championship last season with 13 clean sheets in 45 games. 
    How's that in comparison to shots faced? 

    Judging a keeper from clean sheets alone is a bad stat. 


    We know that he has been a top keeper at a much higher level than CAFC over the last 5 years.

    If he doesn't have backache, Begovic would be the undoubted number 1 at lowly Charlton.

    He has earned plenty in the last 15 years and should've saved 🤦🏻‍♂️enough.


    Judging a Hotel from its clean sheets is a good stat.

    I'm guessing that's the other keeper we signed

    Not sure where Begovic link is coming from... From all I have seen is just some random mention it on twitter... 

    I can't imagine it would be him, might be wrong, but I would have thought we would go for someone a bit younger, just not sure we pay a big wage to 37 year old.

    The tweet was posted 3 hrs ago. Doesnt the news of a signing normally follow quickly after the cryptic post is posted

    The cryptic tweet wasn't from the Club was it?

    Why not earn more though. Dream job for a 37/38 year old keeper. Ruddy has done the same.

    I read it when I was walking to my car and assumed it was. I’ve looked again and the poster has restricted the post, which suggests I’m wrong!

    that will save me from refreshing this thread every 30 seconds

    The best three possibly available keepers in my opinion would be Begovic , Iverson ( Leicester) and Rodak who is mentioned earlier in the thread.I thought none of those was realistic.

    I would be delighted if he signed.

    It’s going to be a signing right out of left field isn’t it.

    Valley Caff's cat says Bialkowski.
    Only 37.

    Small, Edun and Edwards cover the left. I want a keeper 😬

    Can envisage this. Departed Millwall and very experienced. Age 37.

    Not saying this applies to Begovic, but lots of keepers  at his age have gone down the No 2 or 3 path at a bigger club, being well paid to hardly ever play, but there to help the first choice keepers. 

    Not being English would count against him, as a domestic keeper as your no 3 helps a PL club with their domestic player quota.

    He would probably be okay though as he was with Portsmouth since 2004 (17 years old), so he would count as having been trained in England for 3 or more years before he was 21.

    Obscure tenuous rumour links based on nothing and typical of this forum to behave as though said players are now signing;)

    Well it's better than no rumours whatsoever I guess. We need Dobson to score a midfield worldie for Wrexham to give us something else to moan about.

    Hopefully not Guru, if it's a keeper. No rush goalie for CAFC.

    So. What's all this about a goalkeeper?

    Long as it's not at The Valley...or even worse at The Covered End...Dobson can do one...

    A name that cropped up on that QPR forum - Alex Smithies - appears to be a free agent after 2 years bench warming at Leicester 

    Edit - Just seen he's retired!

    It's a sign, must be?
