This'll be one of the harder ones.

VDS was amazing for us but Schmeichel was something else. He put fear into strikers. Genuinely one of the GOATs

Has to be Schmeichel.

Utter weapon of a bloke, but arguably the greatest 'keeper ever.

Van Der Sar was awesome, but he had the luxury of playing in front of a world-class centre-back pair every week.

De Gea is probably the one that has the best highlight reel of saves, but he falls behind the other two on command of his box.

Pete, but glad you've dropped favourite from your description.

Vds is soundest. Ddg is forever soiled for me with the Madrid desperation.

VDS for me, purely because I like him more than Schmeichel.

Should’ve signed him from Ajax to replace Schmeichel

I think I love VdS and Schmeichel equally, with the former definitely being the more likeable of the two. However, one of my happiest memories ever as a child is us winning the CL. They were all absolute heroes to me and my Dad. So I have to go with Schmeichel.

Barthez

It's Schmeichel obviously. Anyone answering any differently is being one of them.

Schmeichal, although Van de Sar was awesome & a shame we didn’t get him earlier. Also still involved with club, correct me if I’m wrong.

Always liked Barthez, albeit he was shit. But he did look like Donald Pleasance

VDS, by a nose.

Schmeichel was fantastic and such a huge presence, but I personally just prefer the calm, cool keepers.

Never felt safer with a keeper than him.

Schmeichel was the best keeper I've ever seen. Just look at him ffs, how many one on one situations did the big £#%&!ing animal come out on top of?



But has to be said, I'd rather go out for coffee and cookies with VDS.
