City Close In On Welsh Star

Tue Jul 02, 2013 9:09 pm

Cardiff City have entered talks with Wolverhampton Wanderers about the possibility of taking Wayne Hennesey on a season long-loan. Hennesey is believed to want to play at a higher standard than league 1 and Wolves want him off the wage bill for a season.

Early stages yet but could be great competition for Marshall.

It all seems to fall in place, and makes sense. Also got this from a very reliable person. Just got back from injury but could be a good signing with premier league experience.

I'd be happy with this :)

I've for to be honest might be a bit controversial but if Hennessy did sign I would have him as number 1 over Marshall .
Even though I think Marshall is a great keeper Hennessy would nick it for me !

What message does this send out to lewis? Maybe a loan move would be beneficial.

No way as much as I rate Hennessy right now Marshall is better

Agree, love Marshall but reckon Hennessy is a class act. Would have to feel for Marshall if this did happen though as he was outstanding last year!

I wouldn't feel for Marshall. They are all in the prem now. It's time to step up :malky:

Hennessy is a decent keeper but currently recovering from not 1 but 2 ACL knee operations .

would it be worth the risk ?

Re: City Close In On Welsh Star

Marshall no doubt had a great season and it'll be interesting to see what happens if this falls in place.

Re: City Close In On Welsh Star

Tue Jul 02, 2013 9:31 pm

Would be decent back up option for David Marshall. Joe Lewis as third choice keeper :ayatollah:

Re: City Close In On Welsh Star

Tue Jul 02, 2013 9:34 pm

New poster hmmm? Would be happy with it as he's decent back up and back in training I think :ayatollah:

Re: City Close In On Welsh Star

Tue Jul 02, 2013 9:35 pm

I can't see this malky stated that marshall would be number 1 next season and that its 1 less place for him to worry about :thumbup:

HaHaHa - recall giving him so much abuse when he had that mare against when JFH swung in that amazing goal at Ninian in the game that put us in the Qtrs of the FA Cup. Was behind the goal for that one. He gave me such a look !!! HaHa

Don't see the point of this Marshall is better and would start so why would Hennessy come on loan to sit on the bench :?

Re: City Close In On Welsh Star

Be a cracking signing mind better competition for marshall and will make eachother work harder and hit a higher standard of performance to get the no1 spot

Re: City Close In On Welsh Star

Tue Jul 02, 2013 9:50 pm

Am I the only one that thinks Hennessey is woeful? He drops so many mistakes its unreal and he's not 1/4 the keeper Marshall is

Re: City Close In On Welsh Star

Tue Jul 02, 2013 10:27 pm

Always hoped we would go for him.

Be a great signing.

Chelsea got some great young keepers coming through and loan them out like Courtois. :ayatollah:

Some of the people on this board are really thick.

Making the assumption going for a keeper is stupid because we have Marshall? We need a decent back up if he was banned or injured. :roll:

Re: City Close In On Welsh Star

Tue Jul 02, 2013 10:43 pm

A better back-up option than Lewis, I think. Fingers crossed. :)

He would be a great back up keeper!

Re: City Close In On Welsh Star

I think it'll be important to have 3 very strong goal keepers in the premier league. We don't want to be in a situation where one goalkeeper is injured we need to use the loan system. This time, the premier teams will be our rivals and will not be willing to help us out as they would have if we were in the championship.

Re: City Close In On Welsh Star

Tue Jul 02, 2013 10:54 pm

It wasn't too long ago we had Marshall & Heaton out injured together for months and look what happened then!

Hennessey would at least be good back up for Marshall and I'm not convinced about Joe Lewis's Championship credentials, let alone his Premier league credentials!

Would be a good signing IMO!

Re: City Close In On Welsh Star

I read Elijah Parish had been released. If true I can well believe another keeper could be brought in.

Agreed with OTM and Bakes.
