Just decision making and agility and HANDLING. Which is a talent. I've seen plenty of keepers who were quick, agile, strong, explosive, and brave, but failed to make any sort of standard because their handling was poor.
You can't just decide to be a good keeper. You have to be born with the raw materials.
