The Official Thread of Chelsea FC

I wonder which team got the most clean sheets?

Cech takes the Barclays Golden Glove due to having a better ratio of clean sheets to games played.

Strange way to decide it? should be the most saves were Reina (103) to Cech (65)

[ludermor]

do you want to have an award for least goals conceded per shots?

[stew]

It may be just me - but i find Chelsea the most hateful bunch of hoors ever to be assembled together on the same football pitch, the sight of Ashley Cole, John Terry and Didier Drogba celebrating will always make me feel a little bit sick! (Dont mind Lampard though)

All of them combinded aren't  half as hateful as Gary Neville

Or Rafa

Gary Neville is a hateful carn but Drogba, Cole and Terry, give over, combined they are worse than Neville, just.

Rafa is not hateful, a bollocks yes but hateful.................. nah.

Barclays Golden Glove winner Petr Cech was back to his reliable best during the 2009/10 campaign, keeping 17 clean sheets to seal the award for a second time.

The Czech Republic international conceded just 26 goals in the Barclays Premier League all season, providing a foundation for his team's attacking exploits.

Liverpool's Pepe Reina also managed 17 clean sheets, but Cech takes the Barclays Golden Glove due to having a better ratio of clean sheets to games played.

Reina is real quality and God knows were the pool would have finished if they didnt have the best keeper in the league behind them. Reina is world class and with Torres is the most important player at the club, Stevie G seems to have burst his bubble.

For me Reina was the best keeper in the league, Cech had a great season but Chelsea defended a lot better as a team this year - an Italian trait?  I still think Cech is too error prone nowadays.

Doogie, because of Chelsea's all round brilliance this year , Cech had fewer opportunities to show what a great keeper he is.  Reina was playing for a bad lot!!

Thats a fair point, a keeper bombarded with so many shots is bound to save a few, so I take it all back, Brad Friedel was the best keeper in the league this year (apart from the day the sun got in his eyes in SW6)

Seriously, between 2004 and 2006 Cech was almost flawless probably the best in the world.  He hasn't been the same keeper since the injury and although still a fine player I wouldn't put him in the top three in the Prem now.

[Norf Tyrone]

Top 3 for me based on season just finished....

1. Hart
2. Reina
3. Cech

[Minder]

Top 1 for me based on season just finished....

1. Reina

I agree.

[magpie seanie]

Why does no-one mention Edwin Van Der Sar? I think he has a shout for best keeper but he'd certainly be in the top 3 or 4.

[magpie seanie]

You really put me in my box with that one, shall I go and sit on the naughty step too?

Van Der Sar is as good as there is, probably the best all round keeper in the league.  Reina is a good shot stopper, but not as good with the ball at his feet or at dealing with crosses as VDS is.  Cech has not been the same keeper since the injury, and as for Chelsea defending better this year, I definitely think they have been more vulnerable at the back than in previous years.  It's hard to rate keepers because as mentioned a keeper in a bad team will have a lot more work to do and can pull of more eye catching saves etc, whereas a keeper at a top team is ridiculed because they apparently dont have much to do.
