Buffon names Casillas as the best goalkeeper of his era

By

Gianluigi Buffon believes Iker Casillas has been the best goalkeeper of his era but feels Peter Cech is the “most complete overall” over the past three years.

The 37-year-old made his professional debut 20 years ago and has gone on to win six Serie A titles as well as the World Cup with Italy.
“The best goalkeeper of my era has been Casillas,” Buffon toldMarca. “He’s always been the best with his hands.
“People always say [Lev] Yashin, [Ricardo] Zamora, [Dino] Zoff, [Sepp] Maier and [Gordon] Banks.
“If I had to select those of my era, I’d say [Peter] Schmeichel, [Walter] Zenga, [Gianluca] Pagliuca, [Andoni] Zubizzareta.
“In the last decade, Cech and Casillas have been the best, while in the last three [years] I’d say [Manuel] Neuer, he’s fantastic in the air. The Czech though [Cech] is the most complete overall.”

A trail of fiery light fell away behind it, and the light from the ball and its trail illuminated the land beneath them. The yellow light caught faces looking up at the ball in morbid fear. There was a gasp that travelled through the land and crossed the hardly distinct divide between ally and foe. The Fireball was a sight to behold, but its lifespan was agonizingly short. It wailed even louder as the force that binds, took hold of it and began reeling it faster and faster back down to earth. There were screams of terror among the ranks.
