Eddie Gustafsson as third-choice keeper?

Rumours now circulate in Sweden that Eddie Gustafsson of FC Lyn might take the third keeper spot behind Andreas Isaksson and Rami Shaaban this summer. However, the normal third choice Johan Wiland have performed alright in Elfsborg during the first ten games of Allsvenskan.

In the summer of 2006, Eddie was cut in the last minute since his performances dipped in the Norwegian league. I suppose it would be fair in some way if he was able to grab the last keeper spot this time, since he won’t get many more chances at the age of 31.

However, I suspect that when Lagerbäck will pick his squad next week, Eddie will end up at home, as a replacement if any of the other keepers would get injured.
