Given has been consistently good for a number of years now. Very underrated. City getting him for 8 million was a steal.
:agree: so is jaaskelainen....how the hell he is still at bolton IDK

always thought spurs or villa or one of the other upper midtable teams would have come in for those 2 a long time ago (before given went to city)

Do you guys still consider Buffon to be the worlds best keeper?
Yes.

Júlio César - I think he's brilliant, and was better than Gigi last year, but loses out on his 1 on 1's and command of area.

Iker Casillas - Looks a sweaty mess every time he runs out to get the ball. Just this weekend he should have conceded a goal due to poor rushing when he basically passed the ball to Canales who received it on his wrong foot. Great great shot stopper but is a liability thanks to reasons above.

I don't think it's worth discussing anyone else. Frey, Cech, Given, Reina, Chimenti etc are all in a level below those above.

Every time I watch Akinfeev he's really shakey. I don't watch him a lot, but still.

Sneijder's free kick in the CL comes to mind.
