Edit- in hindsight I was harsh on Guzan and have been delighted to be proved wrong - both keepers are an asset.

Given, but Brad has shown he is a more than capable backup and would probably be first choice at a lot of clubs. I'd be surprised if he was still here next season so we need to get a decent #2 in considering the injury problems Given has.

Most ludicrous question I've seen on here possibly ever, given by a huge distance!

Whatever next , messi or heskey?


A bit harsh that. Yes Given is the better keeper, and would get my vote, but bearing in mind Guzan's recent form I think it was a valid question.

Is it? Guzan has proved himself. For me, Given is better. So sorry to ask a question which is open to debate and discussion. What does SSN say?

Right now Guzan should keep the shirt until Given is 1 fit and 2 Guzan lets us down.

I think it Guzan's shirt to lose. Keeping a clean sheet at Stoke was a superb effort, and his general handling on set plays is better than Given.

A BIT harsh? Completely ridiculous, over-the-top statement.

Given has probably been our best player this season (until he got injured) so I see no reason why should not walk back into the team as and when he is fully fit

Well done to Brad for stepping up and standing in but he is no Shay Given
