Robert Sanchez has been the topic of mixed reviews this season. Some say he's a promising goalkeeper for Chelsea, while others are unsure. In light of this uncertainty, there have been calls for the team to sign Liverpool's backup goalkeeper, Caoimhin Kelleher, to replace Sanchez as their first-choice keeper.
Sanchez had a tough time last season, with former manager Mauricio Pochettino not giving him many opportunities to prove himself. However, under the leadership of new boss Enzo Maresca, he has reclaimed his spot as the starting goalkeeper. Despite this, there are still doubts about his abilities, as he has made a few noticeable errors this season.
On the other hand, Kelleher has been making a name for himself as Liverpool's backup goalkeeper. In his recent start against RB Leipzig in the Champions League, he made two crucial saves that helped secure a win for the team. Despite playing second fiddle to Alisson, Kelleher has always impressed whenever given the chance to play. In fact, earlier this year, he expressed his desire to become a first-choice keeper in the future.
Jason Cundy, a former player for Chelsea, believes that his former club should seize the opportunity to sign Kelleher. In a recent interview, he stated that Kelleher's performance in the midweek game showed that he is a top-quality goalkeeper. Cundy also pointed out that when Kelleher is in goal, the Liverpool defense doesn't seem to drop their level of play, which is a huge compliment.
Cundy went on to say that as a Liverpool fan, he understands the team's current backup goalkeeper, Giorgi Mamardashvili, is a promising player. However, he believes that Kelleher is too good to be a number two and should be given the chance to be a first-choice keeper. He even suggested that Chelsea should make a move to sign him, as he would be a valuable addition to their team.
