It’s been a long time since Sunderland fans were happy with their goalkeeper choices, and last season was an absolute disaster between the sticks.
Jason Steele had a poor season before leaving for Premier League Brighton, and Lee Camp was the target of plenty of abuse after his horror shows towards the end of the season.
The Black Cats completely overhauled the squad this summer under Stewart Donald and Jack Ross, and one of the first signings to come in was Scotland international Jon McLaughlin.
The 30 year-old racked up over 250 league appearances in England for Bradford and Burton Albion, but after a solid start he has looked a little shaky in recent weeks.

While McLaughlin is still undoubtedly the first choice, Ruiter’s two penalty saves in Tuesday’s win over Stoke’s U21 side have prompted the discussion of a switch, and you can find some of the best Twitter reactions down below…
