I Don't think anyone's saying that, just that he's got to keep on proving himself.

Nothing is set in stone. Sure he looks made for the top, but the pressures on him big time now. Playing for a team that aspires for a top five finish and minor European cup run isn't the same pressure as playing for a team who only accept 2nd in the league minimum (if that) and are looking to consistanly get to Champs League Semi Finals. Despit this all of his previous achievements are excellent for a young keeper.
