bawan 0 Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Ireland's Robbie Keane has added extra spice to Wednesday's Euro 2008 qualifier against Czech Republic by suggesting that opposition goalkeeper Petr Cech is not the best in the world. The Irish Republic's most prolific goalscorer says that although Cech may be one of the best, the title of top goalkeeper belongs to Shay Given. "Cech is one of the best goalkeepers in the world," said Keane. "But we are quite lucky in that we have the best in Shay Given. "Cech is different class but Shay Given is for me one of the best goalkeepers I have ever seen." Given had kept three consecutive clean sheets for his country before conceding two against Slovakia at the weekend and will have to be in good form again on Wednesday, if Ireland are to make up ground in Group D.

Tribal 0 Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Given is certainly one of the best shot stoppers in the world, but overall I think Cech has the complete package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holden McGroin 7787 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 What utter bollocks from Keane. Given is one of the best keepers in the world. Has been for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scy 0 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Better than Cech, not the best in the world. Would love to see how Cech would do in goal for a lesser team like Fulham... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassplayerjj 0 Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 (edited) Cech's only weakness for me is from crosses. Doesn't seem the most commanding at times which is odd for such a big guy. Kinda like Calamity James but with less errors =/ Edited September 14, 2007 by bassplayerjj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
