There's a third risk I'm more concerned about...

...it takes a defence a while to get used to a new keeper. He is an integral part of the defence. They need to learn when he's going to come, when he's not, when he wants the ball, when he doesn't, which foot he's best kicking with, how aggressive he is at coming off his line in different situations, etc.

It took a while for them to get used to Ruddy, and then also to Bunn. It's a bit of a risk to shake it up again in the biggest game of the season - one of the biggest games for NCFC in many years - and hope that the back four can all switch mentally back from Bunn to Ruddy.
