Right-footed keeper.

I recall having a conversation about Johnstone maybe 2 or 3 years ago and was informed that he was working hard on his distribution.
Evidently his distribution at present is good and he is capable in one-on-one situations.

I understand his Father was a keeper for Preston but I cannot recall his name or seeing him play.Sam himself played for Preston, signed on Loan from Man Utd by Simon Grayson.

Sakho is class. If they rejected him because they didn't like his face, more fool them.

Johnstone would be a good signing. If we wait until the end of the season, it could be worth looking at which sides were relegated and try to pluck one of their goalkeepers.

Stoke have Jack Butland, if they go down Butland will be the first to leave as he wants to play for England. Palace could swoop in early in June for him before he leaves for the World Cup.

Newcastle have Karl Darlow and Freddie Woodman. Woodman's untested in the Premier League but is very highly rated and was in the under-20 starting XI that won the FIFA U-20 World Cup, so definitely has potential.

Lukasz Fabianski would be another good one but he's the wrong side of 30 if we want a long term goalkeeper. That's why I'm not mentioning WBA whose GKs are both getting on a bit too.

With Hennessey's and Speroni's current 'better' form I think it might be wise to do what you suggest and loot the relly's keepers. :-) But it wouldn't hurt to grab a promising youngster if available. (If you know what I mean).
