"Keeper, keeper, give us a wave..."

Top Cat 4th bottom? Thought he was class.

Who was that Icelandic fella we had on loan and played in the spurs 4-3 Cup game?

Arni Arason. Conceded 7 goals in the two games he played for us, yet I still have fond memories of him.

Why are some in bold?

241 cocktails? Or ran out of Daz?.... Surely that list isn't how he's ranked the keepers?

"...as you leave the ground, never to be seen again."

Much has been made about a mistake by a keeper or two of late. Ortega made an error but arguably was top bananas in previous cup games.

Rate the goalkeepers you've seen in your lifetime in terms of quality. Top bananas to (couldn't catch a banana shot by a five year old at the) bottom. No matter how this weekend goes, or the season, Ederson is class.

I was too young to remember Cooper, Suckling, Eric Nixon, Siddall, Alex Williams and Joe Corrigan. We've had some top class keepers over the years.

*didn't see enough to truly rank this player

Written for ships and giggles. Not to be taken too seriously. Winding in necks may be required.

I preferred margetson on the wing

I’m sure it wasn’t actually the case, but in my mind I always remember Margetson as being about 5ft 6”. Think there was a game against Everton (last day of the season?) where he was scrambling about in net like a school kid.

Arni Arason. Conceded 7 goals in the two games he played for us, yet I still have fond memories of him.

That's because every time he conceded his 3rd goal, he went absolutely nuclear. His tip onto the post followed by scrambling back across the line for a double save against Spurs is one of my all time favourite saves.

 

[jamielowndes]

The recency bias here is questionable. Joe Hart shouldn't be as low as 4th.

Ortega hasn't even played double digits for us and Caballero was a career backup at City.

3 down at half time and was subbed.....

Now England's goalkeeping coach

Ortega second for you or is that just your list?
