Italiano would be fuming having waited three years to become our number 1 only to have it taken away from him for a player without a single professional appearance behind him, nor that many starts at NZFC level.

Bold call if the kid is picked... would love to know more about him.

Don't we have a whizz bang new goalkeeping coach whom has come in from outside the club and presumably, assessed each keeper on how they have gone at training? If the 18yo kid starts, it means he is the best person for the job. I've never been sold on Italiano but if he is the best, he starts. If its the other kid, so be it.

The only thing that matters is the win and the name on the back of the shirt is irrelevant.

You're not concerned about the fact that this kid can somehow be assessed as potentially the best person for the job, but was missed/ignored/overlooked while Italiano and Sail were being tied down (in Sail's case for two years)? Would be different if he'd just turned up last month.
