The best goalkeeper of all times

This time, I can write about the theme because the
GKs of Brasil never was of 1st line (sorry, Gilmar dos
Santos Neves).

Of course, there're many great GK: Sepp Mayer, Ubaldo
Fillol, Oliver Kahn, Jean-Marie Pfaff, Dino Zoff etc.

But the best was, is and always will be LEV YASHIN.

any keeper that can get n. ireland to the world cup (and almost to the semis) has to be the best in the world - pat jennings.

Gordon Banks - no argument!

C'mon! Lev Yashin is the best...

I remember Gullit saying once after a match where the keeper made a big mistake: "keepers are keepers because they can't play football".

The 5 seconds silence in the studio of BBC's "Match of the day" is still carved in my memory.

Kasey Keller, Tim Howard, and Shep Messing.

'keeping' is a very specialist position and it is one of the hardest position to play in football as you have to keep your concentration for the whole 90 mins.

Outfield players make a mistake.. and there is always someone to cover for them. A 'keepers makes a mistake and its a goal!

Walter Zenga without question.

"Since 1990 Zenga holds the record for most minutes without conceding a goal in the FIFA World Cup; he was not beaten for 518 minutes in total."
