3rd choice... whem money means more than playing.

Won the lottery

I think it’s sad when a talented professional footballer does this. I know footballers have huge belief in their own ability, but he knows he’ll be extremely lucky to get a game for them. Probably not even in the league cup.

 

[Pegojack]

Be fair. He's 28, he knows he's got another five or six years tops, so he's feathering his nest while he has what was probably an unexpected opportunity. Who wouldn't?

 

[T8AD365]

Shame, I liked Woodman

 

[swannage]

Class act. Well deserved. Why not get a bumper contract and I'm sure he'll get some loan deals to keep playing

 

[Ichabod Crane]

If I were the father of a young, talented 15-year-old goalkeeper, I wouldn't be letting him join Liverpool, that's for sure.

They've already got two keepers better than most other clubs' first choice, so it is practically retirement other than being in goal for the warm-ups. I don't love seeing it, there must have been plenty of Championship and European teams that would have had him as their first-choice, but I do partly agree with what Pego says. He'll be earning good money and probably still have another good contract in his future when Liverpool sign another keeper to warm the bench.
