The keeper is the most important link in the side. If you don't concede you don't lose. Therefore you should have a definite first choice and play him when available.
Another of Clough (RIP)'s great philosophies. A lot you could learn from listening to him (or reading his 442 column) or watching his sides play...

Why not? Hasn't caused a problem yet, keeps the competition up.

IMO a different keeper affects the defence, the uncertainty leads to conceding sloppy goals.
You'll be surprised how much a keeper and defence get accustomed to each other.
[Probs a hint of jealousy in the fact the Reds have one decent keeper (Gerrard) and two gash ones (Doyle and Roche)]
