Who is Aston Villa's greatest ever goalkeeper?

[cdbearsfan]

Emi hasn’t single handily saved his way to us winning the European Cup. Yet.
So until he does it will be Spinksie. 

That was my thinking. It's all well and good fancy danning around in the Premier League, but can you do it on a wet Wednesday in Rotterdam?

So it has to be and it is European and Super Cup winning Big Nigel Spink.

If you're going to award it for winning the European Cup, it makes more sense to me to give it to the player who played in the fifty games we needed to qualify for the final than the player who played most of the final itself.

How many world cups did spinksy win. You cannot be serious. On the night Nige was sound but he never really made unbelievable saves, just ones you expect your keeper to make. Rimmer was far better than Nige but Emi is way out ìn front as the best player ever to play for Villa (except McGrath)

Goalies are crazy was the title of a book way back when.
My first Goalkeeper was Colin Withers.
As we were losing a lot of games, I told my dad, we need a better goalkeeper. He explained to a young me, it is not that simple
Many CK on Ehmm
 Spinks was the man of the moment and will always have his place in history.
I always tended to Rimer But I think Emi is the most influential and instrumental to to the way we play .
Last years fuck up at olf trafford was mindblowing, but yesterdays save has him back up there.

Jimmy Rimmer.

Rimmer was good for us but Martinez is world-class.

Quite a statement given our honours list.

A while ago I would have said Rimmer but agree Dave, Martinez is on another level.

[Hillbilly]

This Martinez love-in is all very well but until he's taken a five-for in first class cricket he's not a patch on Jim Cumbes.

For 90 minutes against Leicester it was Orjan Nyland.

For 90 minutes against Leicester it was Orjan Nyland.

A performance for the ages that one.

Lest we forget, he also pulled off the save of the century against Sheffield United.

Any goalkeeper that can bend space and time to his will has got to be in the conversation.
