Welcome!!
What do you make of him John? (as a keeper) can't say I've seen him (I only watch 'Pool).
Looks decent I think, but can't claim to have watched a lot of him either.
The fee seems a lot to me for someone who's had one good season.
LFC will be a big step up but perhaps he has the character to handle it - have read O'Neil and DiCanio both praise his attitude.
Seems to back his own ability too from the quotes about the challenge he faces to be number one here. All good signs I think, but like you I wish I'd watched more of him do I'd have a better idea what we're getting!
In fairness he is a good keeper - very smart shot stopper , great reflexes. Not sure how much of a commanding presence he is and isn't the greatest at set pieces and crosses ( that's where I think Begovic has the edge ) .
