who u think is the greatest goal keeper of all time

yashimi

kahn

cudicini ahahahahaha joke..

from what iv seen i would say..

kahn n schmeichal just from what iv seen with my own eyes tho.

Dino Zoff Lev Yashin Gordon Banks oliver kahn peter schmeichel fabio Cudicini

my cudici was a joke btw lol

I'd have to say Buffon.

(1)Yashimi

(2)Sepp Maier

(3)Dino Zoff

(4)Oliver Kahn

(5)Peter schmaichel

All the old-time goalies would be crap now. Goalies got so much better.

Indeed...
Buffon is way better than Banks or Yashin

Thank you Jay-Jay

Ubaldo Matildo "El Pato" FILLOL

well i think its much tougher for the goalies of today, now we have so much lighter balls which swerve a lot, and lot of technologies in the boot etc etc. SO i say the goalies of today are better then the ones of history.

i will say Schmeichel is the best ever

Yashin
I liked Taffarel a lot too..

Cudicini ? Fuck I'm speechless, leave your biased opinions out of these kinda threads, even if it's your thread.


Also, there has been a thread about Best GK's of all time already

From the limited footage i have seen, i still go with yashin because he was just amazing with his relfexes.. i havent seen such reflexes in any keeper other than him

Mr Lev Yashin

Peter Bonetti was a good Chelsea keeper, cocked it up for England though, maybe not the best but he deserves to be somewhere in that list...

Dino Zoff: no doubt about it class mixed with skill and determination.


Will be one of the best:
Gianluigi Buffon (if he ever gets rid of Montero in front of him )

fabio Cudicini was voted the best milan keeper of all time

yashin is the best keeper I have seen, but i havent seen ever keeper so how can i say who is the best of all time.

to all the ppl who said Lev Yashin, have u actually seen 10+ games he played or just the best saves of his ? if i only saw the best saves of david james and a couple of his best games , i would say James is the best keeper ever, but i wont coz i have seen him play more than that.
PS. Lev Yashin is a legend and i respect him.

Schmeichel was voted the best United Keeper ever, but that doesnt prove anything

Preud'Homme
or
PACO BUYO

IMO

Frantisek Planicka, Czech, played against Brazil with a broken arm in the 1938 World Cup. He never saw a red card in over 1 000 games, a efender of Fair Play. Was honoured by UNESCO.

Roque Gaston Maspoli
Lev Yashin
Gordon Banks
Rinat Dassaev

Great picks Jose!

Maspoli's heroic performance in the Maracanazo was by all accounts legendary. In terms of WC names i would also add Alfonso "El Divino" Zamora, played for Spain in 34 and lost to Italy on a rematch in the quarterfinals. Some soccer historians say that the equaliser for Italy came after a blatant foul on Zamora.... the ref didnt call it, but you cant really blame him because they were in Italy and Benito Mussolini was in the stadium making sure everything went as planned

i dont no if he was the best keeper of all time but JOSE LUIS CHILAVERT scored 56 goals in his career 41 of them were penaltys and 13 of them from free kicks

Lev Yashin....simple as.

its definitely Lev Yashin. And Im glad you got your sig back Kostas.

Yea, I am too

Yashin
Schmeicheal
Chivertlet

could be great

Buffon
Cech
Howard
Robinson

Yep I agree with Paul Robinson could be a great

Higuita, Chilavert and Sepp Maier!

Cech
Howard
Robinson
lol... those 3 are very very bad!

hehehe

Steve Ogrizovic
Pavel Srnicek
Massimo Taibi
Frode Grodas
Bernard Lama
Dimitri Kharine
Hans Segers
Mart Poom
Tim Flowers

shut it, this coming from someone who is named after the biggest let down in brazillian football.

Yashin and Zoff...yashin a bit better...he was so tall and like caught the ball and palmed it and Zoff was just simply amazing for italia in 68 (won euro) and 82 (won world cup) at 40 year old...and he is also the goalkeeper to have kept a clean sheet the longest time from september 1972 to june 1974, 1142 minutes...but those are the top 2 ever on my list...

I tell you before that Buffon is better than any old-time goalies. The old-timers would be shit now.

Mart Poom = Good choice...

Any one of you who believes new tech has changed the game that much are complete idiots. If you're Heskey using predator boots and a nike aerow ball, that doesn't make him better and that doesn't make his shots harder to save. It's the players that matter. The balls back then, I just happen to have a few of those old balls. They are extremely hard and hurt your feet when you strike them but there isn't much difference in the distance of my shots or the speed of my shots when i strike the old balls. Just slight differences the sporting companies exaggerate to try and sell more to make more money, pricing them at ridiculous costs.

And also, it used to be that it was MUCH MUCH TOUGHER for GK's back then because not many used gloves (barehanded!), the balls could easily slip out of your hand, the balls being extremely hard it would kill your hands everytime you made a save (today's goalies wouldn't even want to be near those balls flying at them without gloves), and the grounds being not as highly maintained they were hard to fall on after a flying save or a save from a ground shot, they played an extreme attacking style of football back then (formation example - 2-3-5 or 1-1-8), and those strikers being not just any ordinary strikers but guys like Pele, Garrincha, Vava, Fontaine, Greaves, Hurst, Charlton, Eusebio etc. etc.

And anyone who says games were played much slower so it was easier, they'd be right except for the fact that the games were slower usually. In high stake games with legends playing, it was just as fast if not faster than today's games.

Goalkeepers like Buffon etc. would be crap if they were playing in those conditions.

Yashin and Banks are the best goalkeepers of all time. I have seen many of their games via videotapes from football stores, internet footages, documentary footages etc., and Yashin and Banks were much more consistent than any Gk's of today, much faster reflexes than any Gk's of today, much better handle on the ball (with bare hands) than any Gk's of today, and they would never once complain about the conditions they played (much tougher and stronger) in and guaranteed if any Gk's of today played back then they would whine like babies.

Guys like Buffon are great goalkeepers but just can't compare to the greats. The odds were against them in a time where defense was practically non-existent and they still made great saves, kept clean sheets, kept guys like Pele, Beckenbauer, Fontaine from scoring and also made a name for themselves in a time when many other goalkeepers were mere spectators watching goals fly by.

In my opinion Yashin is #1 because also he has saved more penalties then any other goalkeeper in the history of football. And Gordon Banks..... what can you say..... but..... I have never in my life seen a keeper fly across the whole length of the goal to make a save...... and they talk about flying schmeichel.........lol

ye but luca u cant say that because they revolutionized the game...with out them who knows what the golie's would be like now...but i understand wha ur sayin

Jens Lehmann

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


LMAO

anyone have an opinion on this? i didn't think so. read my sig.

I'd say Yashin The only keeper that won FIFA Player of the Year award.
But the belgian GK Pfaf was also great bayern munich GK
I don't know why people forgot him so fast

i know ppl will think im a loser 4 dis but i reckon a great keeper was Mark Bosnich, hes an aussie legend

david seaman the greatst keeper of all time.

peace

BANKS #1

1 Schmeichel
2 Köpke
3 Lama
4 Ruustu Racebe
5 Abedzadeh
