Best Goalkeepers.

[bluemoonmatt]

So who do you rate as:

The best ever England goalkeeper.Banks
The best ever Manchester City goalkeeper.Trautmann/Corrigan tie
The best ever goalkeeper of all time worldwide.Yahsin, Schemichel was good though, the bstard

And a final seperate question, are you happy with Shay Given being in between the sticks next season? If the answer is no, who would you like to see replace him and why?

I'm not wholly convinced with Shay, I'm not slagging him but I don't think we are any better off with him in the side than if we had Joe. Personally I would prefer to have Joe back.

English - Shilton
City - Given
All time - Buffon

Got to be your first season as a City fan

I'd rather not pretend I know all about some wankers from the 60s, and Given is most certainly the best GK City have had in the last 20 years. You cannot name the likes of Schmeichel and Seaman when they were both shit during their time here.

Schmeichel shit at City.Are you referring to Peter or young Casper.Surely not Peter or the other fella's right about you

 

[C_T_I_D]

No mention for Swift?

 

[Grand Master Ram Rod]

Of the one's I've seen:
England: Seaman
City: Given
Ever: Schmeichel

My Dad said:
England: Banks
City: Corrigan/Given
Ever: Jennings

He only caught the end of Trautmann's career so couldn't really put him.

Bullshit, he was on the wane but still class for us.

I'm only 19 so my list won't be as illustrious as some.

Best England Keeper; Seaman
City Keeper; Schmeicel/James
Best keeper I've seen; Buffon

Gordon Banks
Frank Swift or Bert Trautmann
Lev Yashin

I agree to a certain extent, but I'll never forget that flap at the ball against Luton where he came out for the cross only managed to palm it to the edge of the box, and with him still on the ground, Antic scored.....

I'm surprised no one has mentioned David James. He was brilliant for us I thought.

 

[DontLookBackInAnger]

Based only on players I've seen play

The best ever England goalkeeper. Shilton
The best ever Manchester City goalkeeper. Coton(a real crime he never played for England).
The best ever goalkeeper of all time worldwide. Zoff

I'm of the opinion that those two penalty saves he made against Wolves and Leicester may well have saved the club from more than relgation. If you look at the state we were in finacially then relegation could have ruined us.
