As a rule of thumb, I’ve always been in the camp that would rather see Blues loan players out than in.
If you are able to do that, it is a barometer of how healthy your club is and where they are in the football food chain.
And, after all, you are usually developing another club’s player for them and stymying your own talent pool by utilising the temporary incoming route.
As for goalkeepers, I would ideally prefer an experienced hand between the sticks. It is such a key position, of responsibility and pressure.
