I'm not even sure he's in the top half anymore - everyone agrees he makes some great saves, but has other weaknesses particularly commanding the area / corners; that's not enough to be considered a great keeper. He's not a massive weak link but I agree with the earlier poster who said he wasn't great last year. And a 5 year contract was daft.
I'm not suprised Given has had a poor tournament. He had a rotten team in front of him for 9 months, then another similarly shambolic rabble in the Euros.
If you base your opinion on Given from what we've seen in the Euros, then we need another keeper. But if you base it on what we saw last season in a Villa shirt, then we don't!
Richard Dunne isn't helping Given....again...
