By common consent amongst our fans - or so it seems - there is very little confidence in Robles as backup goalkeeper to Howard.
However, unless RM brings in another (experienced) goalkeeper - which does seem unlikely - it looks like we're stuck with Robles until one of our youngsters (we now have 5, having just signed Hunt from Blackpool to join Stanek, Griffiths, Hewelt and O'Loughlin) has developed enough to be good enough for the first team.
Is there anyone amongst this website's posters who is NOT concerned about our backup goalkeeping situation?

Personally, I'm not too concerned. People forget he's still very young for a Keeper and has time to learn. Yes, he's unconventional at times but he is a decent shot stopper and has proved (to me anyway) that he has the potential to become a great keeper. He reminds me a lot like De Gea when he first joined Utd, so I feel that he will come good. I hope.
