Also how good is Zubikarai? He has a fantastic club history, never seen him play though

Insanely good goalkeeper but his Achilles heel is mistake making and complacency. It’s what got him released from Real Sociedad. Made a few costly errors in the Eastern Suburbs game, and the last goal that ACFC conceded was from Zubikarai hitting it straight to an unmarked Southern attacker for an open goal finish. Distribution could be better too but his diving and general shot stopping ability is better than any other goalkeeper in New Zealand right now. Age is an issue though, 34 if i remember correctly? Though nobody cared when Sørensen came

Crazy to think that a first choice goalkeeper for a top half La Liga club is playing in the SSP a year later

These two have nothing to do with each other.  A good goalkeeper at 34 is getting into his prime. However, being complacent and error-prone is a professional liability at any age, in any profession, unless you are the chairman of SKY TV.... well, or maybe like the chairman of EQC, the gormless Ian Simpson.
