Baby Buffon and Baby Casillas were the actual Buffon and Casillas, it's just that their longevity even in decline made them challenge Neuer in his tiny two year prime period in which he manage to actually look like a professional player and did not fabricate three blunders per one save
brb watching 7 hour Neuer blooper reel of running like a headless chicken 30m out of goal, then raising his arm begging for offside everytime he fucks up
Hey lets not rewrite history here just to make it fit our agenda.
Neuer has been the best goalkeeper in the past decade, he was even voted it.

Another thing is; you can hate Neuer all you like and that's cool with me - but just because you hate someone it doesn't mean you can't acknowledge their qualities. I dislike Neymar a lot and think he's the biggest bitch, but I can still admit he's a better player than Gnabry.
Neuer was beasting back in his Schalke days and got Schalke into QF's and SF's of the CL and you wanna tell me he had a two year prime only? Gtfo with this delusion. He played a massive campaign for Bayern in the 2011-12 CL season, did the same in 2012-13, and like I said here's the final for everyone who got a bad memory how it actually went on - he saved our ass in the first 20-25 mins.
And he did it in the 2014 WC as well for Germany.
And you know what? He actually did it again for Bayern in the 2019-20 campaign.
And let me point it out so even imbeciles get it (no offence), but the biggest reason for him playing this way is because of how Bayern and Germany played for nearly a decade now. With such a fucking highline you simply need a goalkeeper rushing out of his goal to clear the balls. Yes he might make mistakes, but so do all, 9 out of 10 times he gets it right.
The coaches instructs him to do it because of the defenders being so high up and as he's so good with his feet he can participate in the build up. Kahn would probably flop in the way Bayern plays today because of the highline.
You're saying Neuer's prime only lasted two years, then tell me how you're voted as the goalkepper of the decade and won the award as the best goalie in the world 5 times? It doesn't make sense does it?
It seems you and Daidevil got way too much bias in this to make a fair conclusion. Like mentioned before, I also dislike Neymar a lot but I know he's a world class player. If Neuer was so shit as you make it out to be, then he would never have earned so many caps for Germany, won a WC and two trebles with Bayern - he's a world class goalie and have been it for the whole decade.
Btw now we're at it - can you please send me a link of Kahn lifting the WC after the Ronaldo mistake he made? I can seem to find it
Kahn is a big game player, but Neuer even more. You can cry about it as much as you want, but facts don't care about feelings. And everything shows Neuer is the superior keeper, just accept it.
Ffs Kahn even said himself Neuer surpassed him.
