Best EPL goalkeeper

GavRedKing

lloris is in 4th place, shouldnt that be Szczesny's :pac:

Alfred Borden

Just gonna do a top 10 there. Not much between top two and can argue it either way. Cech and Lloris also far ahead of the chasing pack.

1. De Gea
2. Courtois
3. Cech
4. Lloris
5. Begovic
6. Hart
7. Valdes
8. Forster
9. Szczesny
10. Krul

Both.

Break down how you came to it. What stats etc did you use?

Benimar

I'd put Courtois very slightly ahead of De Gea, who is way ahead of the next best.

The 23 lads who voted Mignolet need a word with themselves. If he is Liverpools No 1 keeper on Feb 1st I'll lose the plot!!

DVDM93

I doubt anyone who voted Mignolet was actually being serious. If the 21 PL keepers (incl Cech) were a PL table Courtois and De Gea would be fighting for top spot with Cech right there in the mix. Mignolet would be in battling relegation or hovering just above it. He defies physics and not for the right reasons.

GLaDOS

I think some people are taking the results of this poll a little too seriously

Nobody actually thinks Mignolet is the best keeper in the league

Joe Hart only got 1 vote so far, while his England understudy Forster got 8!

I know watching Villa is painful, but you should give it a go to have a look at Guzan, who's streets ahead of most in your top 10

Coutois for me, but you got to feel Sorry for de gea stuck behind that make shift defense that cost around 80 million, poor fellow but still a fine goal keeper regardles probably third behind courtois and cech

niallo27

Mignolet has the same amount of clean sheets as de Gea and courtois playing behind a worse defence so his votes are justified.

Even as a Liverpool supporter, this post is just all sorts of wrong.
Mignolet has done little to prove he is a decent keeper, never mind being anywhere near as good as Courtois or De Gea.
Most who voted for Mig were surely taking the piss, I know I was..

Ah come on you can't be serious.

Utd need to get De Gea on a new contract as Madrid are waiting in the wings. Next thing their players will be praising him in the press.

He's young so no hurry going there. Unless he wants guaranteed CL football and title challenges immediately.

Doesn't that make Guzan better than them all then? Playing in the worst team with the worst defence and the same amount of clean sheets? (also less conceded than Mignolet)

Mignolet also can't catch a ball

It's also delusional to say he can't catch a ball.

He can catch a ball. He just misses every second cross.

He really should be paid on a pay per catch basis. That'd concentrate the mind.

Or put a photo of his kid on the ball.

Liverpool coaches need to think outside the box

Most of Mignolet's problems are INSIDE the box though, it's a tricky one.

What's your favourite Mignolet moment?

I personally like this one

8-10

How is Courtois not winning this comfortably? Another MOTM performance last night and you could tell early on that be it 90mins, 120mins or longer and Liverpool wouldn't have beaten him!

Rayne Wooney

Probably because De Gea's man of the season for United so far, we'd be a lot worse off without him

hard to really compare considering the defences in front of both for the past two seasons tbh

The reason liverpool didn't score was mostly down to liverpool. There's nothing courtois did to stop Henderson scoring the header.

He made a few good saves you'd be expecting him to make.

The poll wasn't titled "Best keeper in league cup semi-final second leg".

No but he's been superb all season on the back of some brilliant performances for Atletico Madrid. Last night and last week was a continuation of that.

ConstantJoe

Mignolet was great for Sunderland, I'd have him back in a heartbeat.

EDIT: I'm not one of the eejits who voted for him here though!

I'm just saying for me he's the clear winner. So young!

Courtois is an incredible keeper. DeGea not on the same level yet.

Both Teebow and De Gea haven't reached the level Mignolet did last season in fairness

DeGea reached it in his first few months.

Sean Bateman can testify to that. Sean if you're watching, give us a sign

If you say his name three times he appears wearing a De Gea mask.

Whoscored.com ranks Cazorla, Jedinak ahead of Aguero.

James Tomkins is the best CB in the leauge and Danny Welbeck is the 15th best player in the league ahead of David Silva, Sterling, Tadic and Eriksen.

De Gea, best shot stopper in the league and he has the best distribution I've probably ever seen for a keeper. Courtois is a very solid keeper who is the best in the league on crosses. Nothing between them other than De Gea's form. Considering United one of the meanest defences in the league with the back line and the amount of times De Gea has saved United this season I have to go for him.

Obviously there's bias there but he is undoubtedly one of the best.

Why the rolleyes? It blatantly did. Regardless, one goal doesn't change the fact he is the best shot stopper in the league.
