I think Mitov is young enough to wait. It is them up to the keepers to persuade Luzon they should be no1, not no2. I'm sure he will always want to pick his strongest team so rather than getting hacked off- it is up to the player to convince they should be part of that.
Isn't it the case though that because of that tournament Dimi was given extra time off hence not featuring so far, not that Pope had jumped ahead of him.
We do have five decent keepers. Phillips is out on loan for the season, but we don't need four others. Mitov will play for the u21's I think, so either Dimi or Popey will go on loan. My hunch is that Dimi will go out to St Trinians or Upjest, though with just a year left on his contract he may be sold?
Problem is, Hamer would expect to be first choice and Henderson is probably the better keeper. If Henderson is out for a period though, a short term loan would be fantastic. Would Elliot be another possibility. He could probably do with some games!
After seeing him last night he appears to have filled out a bit and really looks the part now. However he had a couple of jittery moments when he needed just to clear his lines with his left foot. I seriously hope he overcomes any remaining nerves as he clearly did the business at both York and Bury, and is that bit older, stronger, and more experienced now. As a rule, keepers do understandably break through to regular football that bit later.

Did it get confirmed as the world record in the end?
Jussi on loan is a very good shout.
