Yes, but...

How did Butland get so high on the list? Could it be a year working with the England GK coach at Brum?

Hmm. At which club might a player be able to get such exposure these days? I hear the GK coach isn't at Brum any more.

If Ruddy goes, it's a financial decision IMO. I'd be gutted, but he'd leave with my best wishes and I'd understand. I just hope that first team football and the chance to be England #1 by this time next year (yes, I think he's that good, and Hart is overrated) is enough to keep him with us a couple more years.
