Goalkeepers.

Theres no perhaps about it. I still play in goal and Ive had shots at me from outside the box, really hit hard, and I know I've got the right position but then the ball starts moving left, so you slightly correct your position or stance, then the ball moves hard to the right. I tell you no one else on the pitch sees that movement of the ball apart from maybe the guy who kicked it. If I can catch it I will, but when that ball moves you can look a clown really quick. Even trying to push it to the side is difficult. Like that guy said above, at times its like playing with a 1970s beach football.

My favourite goalie recently is Courtois. Nev used to say a goalie should never let others know what he is thinking. Courtois is a great goalie and also has that poker face.

You're just cack, admit it!
 
No, some good keepers in the top flight these days, Gordon and McGregor the Celtic/Rangers keepers are in good form for club and country.
Both good keepers, Scotland are lucky to have the two of them to choose from.

Hard to say who the best keeper I've ever seen, would need to go through 53 years of watching football in my head to analyse all those games. However, I've been fortunate enough to see both Dino Zoff and Gianluigi Buffon play for Juventus and they would both be right up there,loved big Nev too.
