Just reading the link, there are far better keepers out there then Robinson. And while Reina is a every good keeper, he is replaceable.
This notion that players arent replaceable is plain stupid. The hysteria that went on after losing Torres was a joke. I think Craig Johnston puts that situation best in this article.
"Kenny had been in the job a week and made the move. He sold Fernando Torres and bought those two, who are the opposite of the pretty boy who didn't try and was always injured. Good business if you ask me."

Forget keeping players for the sake of keeping players, making good business so we can build our side moving forward is the way to go. If Reina goes as a part of a good business transaction, and we get a good keeper and annother good player, similar to the torres transaction, then we will be headed in the right direction.
Rather then keeping a player who is lazy and not giving 100% just because he had one good season, and is yet to score at his so called bigger club. And furthermore, keeping him too long and seeing his value fall and not capitalising and what we as a club have put into him, let me tell you, if we kept his lazy ass longer we wouldnt have gotten 5 mil let alone 50 mil.
