Casillas was very overrated. Bring him to England and he'd be skinned alive. Man was very bad in the air

Any small thing una go talk bring him to England...what's so special in the England?? Is De gea not from la liga ?? And casillas was way better if u compare both... no goal keeper was as good as him in one on one situations till date

Start ...Van Der Sar ... twice on any day .
He’s the most gifted .
Sell...Buffon - he always has Italian defence in his front .
Bench...Cech , he is technical and tactical .
But my best of best though not mentioned is
Saint Iker Casillas , gifted , technical, tactical , brave , all round .
The closest to him for me should be Manuel Neuer .

Oga, Buffon is a Legend. Cech is good no doubt but it is an insult to put Cech side by side with him for comparison. Buffon is in the league of Legendary goal keepers like Oliver Khan and Casillas.

In 2006, Buffon came second in the Ballon dor ranking. The closest any goal keeper in the world has ever come to winning the prestigious award.

His saves against France at the 2006 final were just unbelievable. Even Zidane got frustrated after trying to beat him several times with no success.

Lev Yashin won the Ballon d'Or in 1963. So get your facts right.

Van Der Sa Edwin was a late bloomer who was simply ordinary as a young goal keeper. Ofcourse he won the 1995 Champions League with Ajax and other major trophies with Man U but dude had a bad record with keeping clean sheet and ground balls.

Peter Cech Made his name in Nice and came to Chelsea to take the no 1 position from Hilario. Dude never looked backed and broke all goalkeeping records in England with the most clean sheet in Europe. Besides penalty which was never Cech forte, dude was good in up and ground balls. Some might say he was protected by a good Chelsea defence and flopped in Arsenal, but follks forget that Cech was already aged when he moved to Arsenal.

Buffon Gianluigi is a legend in the game but we cannot judge his overall club performance because he spent most of his years in Juventus (besides Lecce and PSG). Buffon won the world cup with Italy all thanks to that great defence mashalled by Cannavaro. Despite his quality and strong Juve defence, Buffon wasn't noted for clean sheets and was below the pecking order when goalkeepers like Casillas, Oliver Kahn, Cech, Van Der Sa and later Neur, De Gea, Courtois and Oblak ruled Europe.

My Choice For me, the best goalkeeper among them is Cech. At their prime, you'll pick Cech before any goalkeeper except maybe Casillas who still had his weakness with up balls. Neur is the other goal keeper you'll choose based on his exploits in his prime for club and country. Neur was a beast in ground, up, and penalty balls. Neur was a complete goalkeeper and become a force at a very young age and still relevant till today.

So I'll start Cech, bench Van Der Sar and sell Buffon.
You made a very poor analysis of Van der sar or you probably are biased. Check Van der sar man utd premier league records despite his relatively short stay and low appearance in the league
Re: Which Of These Legendary Goalkeepers Would You Start, Bench And Sell? by EmemObong03: 7:10pm On Feb 07, 2022
Cech problem has always been his right hand side. Using his left hand to catch ball on the right hand, hence making him some inches shorter.

Van Der Saar is so good with aerial balls but ground level not the same.

Buffon, the name alone terrifies attackers but always erratic in some key decision making.

As a good business man, I will start Cech , Bench Van Der Saar and Loan Buffon

If you are Coach and you have privilege to have this three legendary goalkeeper has your players, but you have to sell one, start one and bench one.

Which of them are you going to start, bench and sell.

The answer to this will certainly depend on which club you support.

Casillas was better than them all

5 league titles
3 champions league titles
2 Euros titles
1 world cup title

None of those u mentioned came close.... the media keep on selling Buffon as the greatest when casillas was definitely better ...the same they are doing with messi , selling him by force
So a good goal keeper is judged by the number of trophies he won? If na that case, Victor Valdez suppose dey your list now mumu.
