    Then again, in terms of being a mental * and a guy who could pull off simply stunning saves which you want to watch time and time again, Boruc was right up there.

    One that sticks out is at Old Trafford, think it hits off Telfer or someone when Boruc is going the wrong way and he has to react.

    I could well be wrong but I think if you asked Martin O'Neill or Neil Lennon who they would want in a big game they would choose Boruc without hesitation.

    Does Boruc have a performance that tops Forster's vs Barca?

    Forster for me, can never remember him making stupid mistakes like the ones against hibs and the Huns that Boruc did plus his performance against barca was the best I've ever seen from a keeper

    He was brilliant against Man United a number of times. Saving both of those Saha chances when we won that night.

    Also the night against Spartak Moscow where he saved two penalties to send us into the CL.

    I wouldn't say he had one performance like the Barca one. Forster wasn't human in both of those games. Home and away.

    I was thinking of the United games. Even thought of the AC Milan game that we lost in extra time too, as he kept us in that game. Spartak Moscow is a good shout as well. Still, with those in mind, I still think Forster vs Barca tops them all.

    Speaking of clangers, I thank * Boruc never played with Ambrose. He might actually have killed him.

    Boruc for me absolute class keeper I think in 2008 after the euro's we could have sold him for 15 million he didn't make too many errors but when he did he made an error in style but was a sensational keeper

    I prefer boruc. Think it's because it's the first good keeper we had in my lifetime. Not gonna count packie as he was a bit dodgy as well.

    With all due respect, but Gordon ain't in the same league as Celtic greats Boruc and Forster.
