Brad has been brilliant.

He was very good in his cameo over xmas last season and I thought he should've kept his place then. Well done to Lambert for making an effort to keep him.

Be interesting to see who the PFA goalkeeper is, some good contenders like Begovic, Mingolet and Brad around. Probably be Dea Gea even though I think he's improved a lot this season but would prefer a keeper down the table get recognition.
Lloris is by far the best GK in the Premier League.

That's a hugely interesting list thanks for sharing, I'll spend some time divulging that, so many interesting stats to take from it.

For example, in the 38 years this has been running, in the first 19 years of these only 3 non UK players were nominated (Ardiles, Thijssen and Schmeichel) and in the next 19 years a total of 82 were nominated.

Back on topic, I agree, Lloris is by far the best keeper in the Prem.

I appreciate Guzan attitude as well as his top GK displays. Considering he 'left' the club and took opportunity to come back take on the No1 jersey displacing Given he's bloody brilliant! This man will help keep Villa up with more crucial saves. He goes on to next game rather than dwell on some of the heavy beatings for me hes the best goal keeper in league as he is far less error prone that any other keeper.

I am not sure if there is a better keeper in PL this season other than Brad?

Just reading the teams of the year from the Daily Mail football writers, Mingolet, Cech, Agbegovic, Mingolet, De Gea all pick up votes, Neil Moxley went for Guzan although he also went for a midfielder I had to google as I had no idea who he was.

Colin Young picked Mingolet and he's the NE football correspondant so seems the journos picked the keeper they see play the most. Has Cech really had that good a season?

BTW Brad was in Frankie and Bennys at the fort yesterday as my mate is head Barman there so will let you know what was his drink of choice.

As crap keepers go, Rob Elliot at Newcastle is terrible.

I agree, I think Krul being injured was a huge blow for Newcastle as they've been on defence suicide watch ever since. Is Steve Harper still there, you'd think they'd stick him in for the last 3.

BTW I'm intrigued as to who this unknown midfielder is that PeterWithe read about in the team of the year....

I'm guessing Morgan Schneiderlin.

Unless he's not heard of Youssuf Mulumbu or Juan Mata.

Schneirderlin is excellent and would improve our midfield a lot.

We're not paying him enough. Give him a pay rise so he can order something off t'proper menu.

R5 aired an interview that Pat Murphy did with Brad this afternoon. I thought Brad came across as sensible, mature, and despite Pat Murphy's best efforts to get him to be critical of team mates, he wasn't.

His performances over the next 4 games are critical to us surviving. If it wasn't for him we would be down already, also Benteke has been a revelation.
