    Robinson? :laugh: I'd struggle to find Robinson a place in the top 10 keepers in the Premiership. Lehmann is woefully inconsistent, and it's no surprise to me that Arsenal were sniffing around Buffon. As for the other three, you might have a case.

    I connsider Lehmann to be the second best keeper in the world. But that may just be personal opinion. And, well, Robinson has always played well for Tottenham, so it's hard to insult him. He just doesn't play well in International competitions. Much like m'boy Lampy.

    Lampy? Psshaw. He's fine in games against the likes of Belgium and Bulgaria, and indeed, Bolton and Birmingham. But you watch him against decent opposition like Argentina or Arsenal. Totally disappears until it's time to take a penalty.

    And how many of those fall into the following categories:
    1) Free-Kicks
    2) Penalties
    3) Deflections

    Does it matter? I think all he's paid to do is put the ball in the net, and even if its done by deflection (Which he is the king of btw), it's still a goal. And there's nothing wrong with deflections.

    It just means he's an incredibly lucky bastard, and that luck won't last forever, as his abysmal 25-shot World Cup shows. For some reason, that luck never happens in big games.

    Without Shay Given, Newcastle would be down and out in the championship. With the excuse of a def they got, putting Stevey H in goal would be suicide, except kamikaze style, taking the rest of the team with him. I'd say he's as big a heroic legend of St James's Park as Alan Shearer was. Given's got the rest of his career to give to Newcastle and Ireland. If only those guys could get a strikeforce as good as England then we'd have some more Irish trouble... There's gonna be much better goal keepers in the future, Van Der Sar and even good ol' Lehmann will be outshadowed eventually. Is it even possible to outshadow Robinson further? I mean, he's losing his grip. You forgot Liverpool have got a titan of a goalkeeper themselves. The reason Shay's good is because he's been used to working so hard with a poor defence. Add in a decent defence for Newcastle and just maybes they could go for a top 4 spot. Titus Bramble can make any Newcastle fan have a heart attack, he can do some good when he gets off his fat lazy arse and does something. It's gotta be so humiliating to a team's pride to concede a goal from Titus Bramble. Anyone want him? I'll seriously respect anyone's gambling skills if they put Bramble in their lineup. Anyone gonna do it? Anyone daring enough to do it?

    I've been meaning to say Lampard was not all that for some time now but I didn't think anyone would agree with me. Yes, his dismal shot-to-goal ratio at the World Cup only confirms to me how poorly he might perform if he left Chelseea to play overseas
