    Forster v Boruc was a hard one to decide. Not much between them

    Schmeichel is the best all round keeper I've seen.

    I don't know any keeper that has had type of individual match winning performances for us, let alone any keeper in world football for any club, in the way Forster has for us.

    Forster
    Boruc
    Hart
    Kasper
    Douglas
    Marshall
    Gould
    Gordon

    Probably pure nostalgia but I have a soft spot for Douglas.

    * Gordon

    As an all round keeper, including use of the ball I would have Schmeichel top but purely down to goalkeeping

    Forster
    Boruc
    Schmeichel
    Hart
    Gordon
    Douglas

    Incredibly difficult to separate Forster Boruc and Kasper for me, I’d have a different answer depending on the weather

    Think it's got to be Boruc first. The true Holy Goalie . The rest are all really good. But you know your when you get a nickname like that . Even down South they know who the Holy Goalie. Such a mad guy.

    Also an argument that Gordon was a better keeper than Hart for us over the whole body of work at the club. Close between those two. But * Gordon.

    Are we ranking peak or longevity? Peak-wise, Kasper would be my #1. Longevity-wise, he's dead last.
