Oops...does that mean my Canuck card gets revokedCraig?
And interesting how effectively Fergie learnt his lesson from it, right? Remember how desperate the media was for the pattern to repeat itself when we bought De Gea, I must have read three or four separate articles predicting he'd be the first of another string of flops. But the boss had got his preparation right this time and he absolutely nailed it.Hard to believe there was a six year period between Schmeichel and Van der Sar where goalkeeper was a problem position for United.
He used to turn into Superman against Arsenal quite a lot as well. So at least it wasn't only us.Freidel would be first if this was based solely on performances against United.
He's on my excellent listNo Roy Carroll? Tragic he hasn’t made anyone’s list
Martyn should have replaced Seaman as England's number 1 by the late 90s. Seaman was over the hill and there on reputation.Shout out to Nigel Martyn as best of the rest - 4 appearances in the PFA team of the year.
- David De Gea
- Peter Schmeichel
- Petr Cech
- David Seaman
- Edwin van der Sar
Aye totally. Seaman's lack of mobility was very evident around that period and into the 2000s - remember him getting lobbed from a corner against Macedonia and then obviously Ronaldinho. England were often guilty of being too loyal to keepers who had once served them well.Martyn should have replaced Seaman as England's number 1 by the late 90s.

I watch him every week, hes still a nutcase between the posts.He's on my excellent list
Nayim lobbed him from the halfway line too when he was at his peak. Tbh any top modern keeper would have got to this.Aye totally.

Given wasn't even a top 5 keeper in any single year of the prem. He got displaced by Burnely's 3rd choice keeper!De Gea
