His biggest problem would be a season on the bench could cost him a WC spot if Nik max oli and Michael are all starting and doing ok
Not a chance in hell they'll ever even consider dropping Paulsen
A season training day in day out with an EPL club, sprinkled with say appearances for the U21s is of higher value than a season in goal in the ALM. Each day at the Cherries he would be challenged at a level way above, his prior time in the ALM.
As MM says madness to think he's not clearly one of the top 2 AW keepers. The real battle is for the 3rd keeper spot.
