This is the young Arsenal keeper who has been out on loan with brentford for the season - some of these saves are class, he's one for the future

A save of the season thread wouldn't be complete without Buffon check out this wonder save.

Or remember this one:(

eagle eye

Pepe Reina made a super save against Blackburn but I can't find it on youtube. Maybe one of the Liverpool lads can get it somewhere.

Van Der Sar vs Bolton was a great save. Can't find a video of it on youtube.

Van Der Sar save v Bolton at 2:52 in this video some great saves before it also from 2009/2010 season

Buffon against Macabi Haifa in Champions league

Alot of those saves were made look easy which is a testament to the keepers ability

Buffon's against Hunt was class because of the split second reaction and extreme strong hand needed, hand-eye co-ordination whilst jumping to push over that wicked dipping shot. You see alot of them fly in over the keepers head wonder why they couldnt get a strong hand to it imo

Casillas was brilliant too, but you have to say that the player trying to shoot back across and under the keeper was a stupid idea given that you are up against the best keeper of his generation.

Alan Mannus' second save last week against Gary O'Neill to be honest for me - not even Robbie Horgan himself on Fingal's bench could believe it..

Then Cesar..then Casillas

Being honest, i see nothing overly spectacular about that save.

Dida vs. chievo was pretty special.

But Dida vs. Napoli was amazing.
Double save from a long range shot/follow up and the a tripple save later in the game.

Nelson has such bad concentration and he has a habbit of making stupid mistakes but IMHO he is one of the best shot stoppers I've ever seen. If only he had a fecking brain, could have been special. I'm of the opinion that in the 02-03 season he was the best keeper in the world by a long way. He is probably the best penalty stopper in the world. Was in the Fifpro team of the year 2005 and has two balon d'or nominations. but sooooooo inconsistant.

I lost all respect for Dida after what he did against Celtic

hence my "if only he had a fecking brain!" comment.

Given against Wolves was the best save I saw this season.

Sadly there's no youtube of it.

Copy and paste looking savage in that video for brentford.

Best save of the season was the iker one against sevilla. Admittedly any goalkeeper is going to go that way because there is nothing else they could do. Still a fantastic save

Ben Fosters close range against RVP early in season ranks. But it was more poor finishing than quick reactions

Its a great save because the ball is fractionally behind him rather than in front of him when he makes the save. Keepers normally put their arms out to make the save but Cesar has to adjust his arm so he can reach behind if you know what I mean.

You can't have a great saves thread without this.

Tremendous. On his day he is unbeatable. It's a shame that his day is so bloody rare.

You can if the thread says 'Save of the Season' and it isn't 2003.

Some briliant saves in there, the one at 0:25 is reminiscent of Neville Southall back in the day.

God help any commentator trying to say his name though, looks like it was written by bloody aliens.
