De Santis single-handedly led Udine to the UEFA .. Mutu is good, but there were other protagonists in the Parma team, like Frey, Adriano, and Nakata (on his day) .. Another point that made me put De Santis over Mutu, is that the GK played greatly even against the big teams (gave Inter, Juve, and Milan a hard time) .. whereas Mutu supposedly shone only against small-middle teams .. Mutu also scored many of his goals from penalties and free-kicks .. but I still rate him highly .. I mean 3rd best isn't that bad at all
