Bazunu? Or Kelleher? Or Travers? Or Bonham? Ok, in the Championship - but 59.5% of shots saved, 25% clean sheets, goals conceded per game 1.08.
Some action from 2021/22
Deserves to at least make an Ireland squad.

I think Max O'Leary is a better Championship keeper than Bonham. Any time I've seen Bonham he has looked poor and made a mistake to cost his team a goal. Was signed to be a backup keeper by Stoke but has got in because their previous first choice (Butland?) hasn't lived up to the hype.
The Irish keeper order for me would be Bazunu - Kelleher - Travers - O'Leary - Randolph - Bonham. I doubt Bonham will ever win a competitive senior cap for us, but at the same time we should be happy that a keeper who is a regular in the Championship may only be our sixth choice. A lot of countries our size find the keeper position very tough to fill at a decent level (NI/Wales/Scotland/Norway).
Edit - Bursik was the other keeper, not Butland.
Was going to say Butland signed for Man U!Quote:

Stoke City have triggered a one year extension to Bonham's contract. His season's stats: 27 appearances, 8 clean sheets, 47 saves (32 from inside the box). Total passes 728, unsuccessful passes 0. (Stoke City FC website).
Stoke also extended the contract of Lewis Macari, who had a very successful loan spell at Dundalk.
Zero unsuccessful passes?

Looks like a mistake, the graph on his player profile clearly says he's completed 473 out of 728 passes

Interestingly, Bonham's ratio of 473/728 (65%) is almost the same as that of Sarkic (66%), who was brought in on loan and was for a while first choice, until he got injured.
Bonham's clean sheet percentage for the season was 27.3, compared to O'Leary's 24.2, though O'Leary conceded 0.1 goal fewer per 90 minutes. (Ignoring the one game wonders, Coventry's Ben Wilson was the clean sheet champ -- 46.5%).
So you could say he's on D'Margio'n's of the first team?Quote:
