shay given is infact very good.the EPL does have some good keepers.i personally like niemi best.there are pretty decent keepers in la liga too other than casillas.
canizares is pretty good,and so is valdez.

Get a clue. Given is a topclass keeper. Maybe not the best in the world, but certainly among the best. You've got to look at Lehmann on current form, and obviously Buffon, Casillas, and Cech deserve to be mentioned. Van der Sar has been quite good this season, as has Canizares and Toldo, despite their relative age. I'm immeasurably dissappointed with Timo Hildebrant and Stekelenburg. But, IMO, the best keeper is Petr Cech. He has everything. He's huge, fast, with excellent distribution, and great organizational skill. Obviously he is helped by his defense, but his record speaks for itself.
Dean Kiely?? didnt he get sold by Charlton because he couldnt get a game? and he is so short! Given is okay but not worldclass by anymeans.
Lehmann??remember him at Ac Milan that was funny! plus he just annoys me with getting involved in fights and diving a keeper shouldnt do that.
i used to watch Niemi at Rangers and Hearts he was pretty good, but not up there with Buffon and Cech.
If you want a tip for the top Craig Gordon at Hearts is even better than Niemi was, and is still just 23. Palermo were rumoured to be watching him.
Morgan De Sanctis is a good backup for Buffon in Italy.

son of a bitch you beat me to it,+rep big maan.
niemi was a great keeper at hearts but craig gordon is currently rated as the best young keeper in britain, for good reason too.
this guy is 23 years old and has already cemented his place as scotlands no1 keeper, he saves my jambo's somewhere in the regon of 15-20 points a season with his outstanding shot-stopping ability. he is big, agile, great positional sense and will nly get better,look out for him he is gonna be known all over europe.

Schmeichel - could pull shit literally out of his ass, great personality
Chilavert - character, character, amazing character
GK is a very unique position. There is NOTHING more exciting than a GK that is actively invloved in the team play and a true leader.
Chilavert was a 90/100 for his GK ability but his amazing character and leadership skills make up for the rest. 70 pro goals in nothing short of amazing.
I like Buffon for his GK ability but he doesn't stand out in any other way. I would choose Chilavert over him any day.
Chila was a BADDDDASS mothafucka but he could carry his team like no other goalkeeper.
Smichael is very similar to Chila minus the FK/PK skill.
