who do you think is the best keeper out of these 3?

1) Oliver Kahn(Bayern Munchen)
2) Oscar Cordoba(Boca Juniors)
3) Fabien Barthez(Man. Utd.)

Good question and good topic.
I really admire Oliver Kahn, and although I hate his style, I think he's probably the most efficient keeper on earth right now.
I think Barthez is efficient as well, but he's far from being a good goalkeeper (some people may disagree).
About Cordoba, it's really interesting cause I didn't think anyone knew about him, and I met him when he came to Canada. I actually have his autograph here with me. He's good, but he hasn't got a chance to play in Europe.

My favourite keeper is Francesco Toldo. He may not be the most efficient, but he's absolutely fantastic when he plays hard. :eek:

Yeah, Oliver Kahn is pretty hard to go past right now. I personally think Edwin Van der Sar is the No.1 keeper, though it will be interesting to see how he goes without a fantastic defense like at Juve.

my top 3

1. Kahn[Bayern Munich]-Based on the penalty strike-out in last years CL final
2. Abiati[AC Milan]-A footballing keeper. I y'all know what I mean
3. Westerveld[Liverpool]-Just watch the charity shield game. He keeps gettin better
 

Help?

I think, that it's Bartez. He is playing a very funny way. LOL. Still can't forgot his moment in Euro 2000, when the Italian player was attacking and Bartez yelled at him at that moment and the player stopped left the ball for Fabien and looked at him with scared eyes. LOL, that was very hilarious.

That was Del Piero. So what ever you say doesn't apply because you assume he is good and can score.

Anyways, Kahn pretty much did the same thing about 3 times in the CL Final to Zlatko Zahovic. Of course, again you have to assume that Zahovic is a good player.

Oliver Kahn is the best keeper in the world. But my number 2 I think now is Sergio Canizares. He is great, and I think he is one of the MAJOR reasons that Valencia have gotten to the CL Final two years in a row.

whoever said van der sar, i would have to disagree. he had a awful year with juventus last year, i watched many games where i thought he should be fired for not saving some of those shots. hopefully he can regain form in england,

no offence to juve, they had a pretty bad defence last year, but now with liliam thuram look for things to start looking up

Although Kahn is a good keeper, he's very ugly, so I did't like him. So I will say Barthez is better(Apart from being a GK, he can also play in left wing!!)

Youth Team
oh yeah the question, i would say barthez, and he is the best out of those three, no offence to kahn who i think is the god of pk's,

my three would be:

1)Fabien Barthez
2)Francesco Toldo
3)Gianluigi Buffon

Against Singapore! Well stop the presses, Barthez is brilliant if he can play on the left wing against Singapore.

I meant that he can't play with any talent. And Singapore is not a team that you need any talent to compete against.

Yeah Barthez is not the best keeper in the world, but definently the most fun to watch. I like it when he runs up to midfield and stuff. He even sometimes trys a shot on goal. I still am waiting for his first goal, I'm sure it will come.

Definitely. It is because of Barthez that France equalized in the last minutes of Euro 2000. Barthez was about 40 yards off his line when he sent the ball forward.
