Kepa has 5 clean sheets in 8 games, why isn’t he on the list?
Why does edinson Cavani have gloves on
Marcin Bulka up there! He looked fantastic as a youth player at Chelsea and it’s a shame he was never given a chance.
Pretty sure skorupski plays for bologna
Explains a bit about Onana!
Am I the only one who thinks clean sheets are more of an indication of great defensive play rather than great goalkeeping ability?
Let me turn that thought around: Am I the only one who thinks goals scored are more of an indication of great offensive play rather than great scoring ability?
Let’s say a keeper faces like 10 shots a game and has to save every single one to keep his clean sheet. A striker can bottle 9 chances and just poach in one shot to score.
Ucl final of 2022 is probably the biggest example of how sometimes it’s the defence, sometimes the keeper single handedly and sometimes a combination of both
My mate is a Liverpool fan and that final still gives him PTSD to this day
I have never been in more disbelief after that final, what a performance by Courtois that day
True but Curtois carries that ucl win from the groups to the final, his saves were crazy and impressive
Yeah it really depends on the specific game and the keeper. Some keepers also kind of run the defense and some dont.
Case in point Onana last year
I think it’s a bit of both, even a single great save can result in a clean sheet. Kobel for time and again has saved our asses so has MATS for barca in last couple of seasons.
There should be another measurement than played games. As you said, a GK with bad players upfront is likely to be more in the middle of the action, hence potentially gets beaten more often.
I would love to have more context available from such stats, like how many shots on target, saves made in general or as others mentioned saved penalties.
I think it’s time for Bayern to make a move on Nübel
Sommer and Nübel both not good enough for Bayern ….
Szczesny at 5 in 7 seems really good.
Don’t jinx us.
3 Polish goalkeepers in top 10 is impressive.
The National Team hasn’t even called up Bulka, who is likely the future.
And they even have some good ones not on the list like grabara
Mlynarczyk started a trend for great polish goalkeepers
As it has always been. Młynarczyk was just the first who flew to the West and achieved the highest.
Regardless of a decade, Poland had at least 1 very good goalkeeper.
Honestly, I don’t know how is this a thing.
Dudek legacy
Very! Can Poland please give away one to other national teams in need?
Only as an exchange for anyone who can play football. Preferably center or left backs.
God damn you Spain, why do you have so much of them!?What’s funny is the actual CB they play are french…
yes, but they have a shit ton of left backs
For some reason Poland has seemed to generate a disproportionate number of quality keepers for a number of years now. Especially when you compare it to some of the crap you see in other positions in the national team 😂
We’ve had so many of them come and go from our Academy over the years
Polish goalkeepers are insane
It’s a shame you’re only allowed to have one on the pitch, otherwise we may actually have had a chance to qualify for EUROs.
Ah, the well known Slovenia problem.
Get in line mate, Romania has this problem for at least 10 years.
Just as bad as having both Oblak and Handanovic for years?
Nah you know what, fair point, I haven’t even realize
Their damn good
The names/badges Dimitrievski and Skorupski are mixed up.
yea. i almost thought that dimitrievski moved on deadline day or sth lol.
3 Polish keepers on this list 🔥🔥
Nice, Juventus and Bologna to be exact
You know when the Poles are in the thread because their usernames always look like a daedric summoning ritual.
Go to Italy for Clean Sheets
Noted
Where is Onana?
forever peeved that Alison never makes these lists despite being one of the best keepers in the world.
Not his fault his defence is playing patty cakes
