Given..City's best ever goalkeeper??

[Deleted member 14625]

Absolutely not our best ever keeper! He may be our best ever shot stopper and has gained/saved us a few points in his short time at the club but he is definately not our best ever goal keeper!

There are actaully aspects of his game that are quite poor or are missing (he doesnt ever come out to collect crosses, he doesnt talk to the defenders enough when they are in tight situations like running towrds our own goal and he never gives an early ball to an attacker who's made a good run!), however i am definately not saying he is a poor keeper - im glad as fuck he's in our goal!

but best ever, no way!!

*Puts tin hat on*

Given + the two center halves (whatever combo) Always mlook a bit shakey on crosses - seems like there is a slight lack of communication or Given does not like coming out to attack it seems to stutter a bit

Anyone else see that?

 

[Sky Blue]

Swift
Trautman
Corrigan

then maybe Given has a chance

Good choice.

Corrigan the best in my lifetime.....My old man would probably say Swift.

He's got a long way to go before he can be considered as good as Martyn Margetson.

Good keeper but not even close to being our best ever.

Best save ive seen in my life time apart from wembley 99, 4-3 come back v spurs, zeiger (sp) free kick he tips it on to cross bar gets up and then gets back to smother ball on the line...Not even gonna try and spell his name, some teacher on he will know it...

kenny mulhearn, was great that season we won the league but given for me he is outstanding probs the best in britain at the moment, corrigan was great but now and then dropped some clangers of the highest callibre anyone remember the one against west ham at maine rd he took the ball to the left of the area kicked into hammers half started to stroll back to his goalmouth and not sure think it was billy bonds kicked straight back into citys net with corrigan walking and thinking wheres that come from think jimmy greaves made his debut for hammers that day and got two? put me right if i,m wrong?

Student teachers your all the same smart arse lol thanks for the video

 

[meeesh]

Cant believe Immel hasnt been mentioned.....he was class,dont know what at like

The best for me in my era has to be Big Joe....was anyone on here there when he got knocked out against Watford I think it was,the old smelling salts had to be brought out,you could have heard a pin drop when Joe went down,horrible afternoon,but he came back a week or two later mind!!
