A: our first choice is Raya, however, other keepers are way too green, so let’s get a backup

B: Wait, we’re too late, can only get Neto

A: he’s cup tied though

B: yah but who TF takes those seriously

Similarly, let’s think about the logic behind selling ESR, loaning Fabio, and having Ethan as back up to Odergard. That conversation can only have played out as…

A: don’t think ESR and Fabio are competent

B: Okay, let’s plan an exit for them

A: Hey great work, sold ESR, loaned Fabio. Great. Okay, now what about the backup for Ode

B: I mean, we have Ethan

A: he’s very raw, we’ll bed him in slowly. And Ode never really gets injured does he. We’ll play Ethan in the cups (don’t give AF about them anyway) and again, Ode never really gets injured does he
