Because it's important to have players with local knowledge. Who don't have to be told everything.
If two players are otherwise equal, then go for the local lad.

Having said that, I don't know if he's better than Nordfeldt or Muller. And I've never felt Mulder was obviously better than Nordfelt, he also made plenty of mistakes.

Poll: Who should be our next manager? Please name them.

How much "local knowledge" is a player born in Germany and brought up in English youth systems going to have?

I was born in Germany myself (in a British military hospital) and went to English schools when my dad was transferred back - still have good local knowledge.

But this is irrelevant / a diversion / a red herring. The original question is: is he an improvement on what we already have?

Well if Nordfeldt is still our keeper next season that will tell you all you need to know about the route we'll be taking.

Getting a keeper in who can command his box at this level is essential for any aspirations we have.

An upgrade on Nordvelt, how much of an upgrade I'm not sure. But are we really going to be in the market this summer for a big upgrade on our keepers and pay a decent wedge for one? Unlikely.

So he's worth the punt seeing as he's free, just got promoted with Barnsley so has form.

Poll: Rate the ref's performance today

Think we should promote Benda instead, highly rated from what I’ve been told
Although there’s probably more informed people than me on here

This is Patches O'Houlihan saying "Take care of your balls, and they'll take care of you."

The thing is Nordfeldt and Mulder are both decent goalkeepers at this level.
From what I've seen Bender seems to be following the same coaching regime - stay on your line and do't commit unless there is little chance of being bumped.

Poll: Should the summer transfer window close before the season starts?

I would disagree there, neither good enough for this level in my opinion. Hoping Benda can make step up but very young in goalkeeping terms

Nordfeldt hasn’t really proved to be decent at this level the season just gone. Mulder maybe if he’s backed as first choice and not dropped when he’s in form.

Neither is good enough the Barnsley keeper was rated 2nd best in league 1 behind Lowe of Portsmouth.
I really hope Potter brings someone in.

TBH I don't recall any goalkeeper being the full package.
Some who did well on crosse were all at sea when the ball was coming at them low, others fluffed catches.
Some may be better but as we spent the first half of the season not really testing them it's hard to tell.

Interesting site

Puts Mulder as our main 'keeper
Save ratio is 4th best in the league.
Goals against over 90 minutes 8th best.

And "good shot-stopper" Nordfeldt has the 49th best save %.
