Greatest Keepers of all time

Hi and welcome again it's me Hubert Filipkowski. For generations the game of football (soccer) has depended on its strikers that are to finish goals off, Midfield to create plays from the middle, and defense to keep the opposition tight and unable to score. One major position that is usually missed frequently, is the keeper. The Goal keeper has a very important role, he can save the game with a beautiful save or totally screw up and miss the ball totally. The Goal Keeper is most crucial in late stages of games, you always need the goalkeeper to be on his toes each second to pull out the win. The goal keeper is most depended on the Penalty shot, it makes a hugh differences if your keeper guesses the write way to jump and save the ball.
That's enough coverage on the position now. Lets talk about some of the present greats playing in the game. When you here goalkeeper, you automatically think Dida or Peter Cech or perhaps GiGi Buffon, but talent has extremely grown in the position over the past couple of years and has inspired younger players to kick it up a knotch, Some great young talents i can think of is Artur Boruc (the young talented Polish goalkeeper) or Paul Robinson a Yorkshire lad just 20 years old. These are two prime examples of whats to come in the beautiful game of football.


Thank you
