Dominic Bossi from the Sydney Morning Herald revealed the damaging nature of Australia’s shortage as A-League clubs have been asked by Football Australia to not sign anymore foreign goalkeepers, and Harper told Piggy, Levy and Jimmy that this points to a greater problem in the country.
“At the start of the season I sat on a panel with one of the greatest, Mark Bosnich and asked why are so many A-League clubs importing goal keepers?” Harper said.
“But, no one has got an answer except to say that the development system has failed badly and there’s been not enough focus on goalkeeping in the much flawed curriculum.”
