KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum World-Class Goalkeepers

So much discussion about what classifies what world-class is... so here is my take on it:

You pick. Who are the world-class keepers in the world right now? Any league, though I guess most of us would prefer to see name of players playing in Europe... Who makes the cut?

I will start us off with:



Casillas (Real Madrid) - Been voted for more than any other keeper for European Footballer of the Year. Has been included, like Ronaldo, in 6 consecutive UEFA Team of the Years. He has played nearly 150 games for his country and nearly 500 for his one and only club. Not only is he loyal to his club, he has helped them through a period of success too. His achievements include: 5 La Liga titles, 4 Spanish Supercups, 2 Champions Leagues, An UEFA Supercup, A Copa del Rey title, an Intertoto Cup, Championships with Spanish U20s and U16s, before 2 European Championships and A World Cup with the Spanish National Team.

Please include emboldened Name, bracketed (Team), Italicised Achievements and an Image placed above - [img]image location[/img].

There are lots of them at the moment, I particularly like Courtois though and I think De Gea is very close to world class if not already there.

Buffon still schools them.

Unless Luis Garcia is around

De Gays way too flappy to be considered world class atm,great with his legs though.

Are you saying I'm wrong?

I'm saying you could be right in time but for now your talking out yer arse.

Nah, I'm right on this one.

Hope not..One things for sure though,he ain't no Peter Schmeichel.

No Packie Bonner either
