after watching ter stegen and jack butland. fumble, couple of weeks ago people on this forum expecially sharaham said they were better than degea. I want to know your opinion now. who is the best young goal keeper in europe? and for dylan comparing fabregas and strootman its like comparing scholes and keane, this players work in tandem, they complement each other, so no comparism. who do you think is the better striker falcao, van persie, lewandowskt and cavani.

Don't want to sound biassed, but De Gea over the past year has become the best shot stopper in the world, just needs to keep improving on his punches and catches from free kicks and corners but he has improved on that aswell.

Courtois or De Gea are the best young keeper in the world. Its very close between them atm. Maybe Courtois just shades it atm. Ter Stegen will also be up there but he is another year or two behind them atm. Butland is a good player but won't reach the level of the other three.

As for who's the best striker that's a tougher question. It kind of depends on how the team set up. RvP is the most skillful on the ball, Falcao is the clinical infront of goal, Lewandowski is the best target man and Cavani is probably the best all round striker.

Courtois and De Gea are the two best young keepers around without a doubt. Imo both have the potential to go to the level of Buffon in his prime if not better.

Courtois of Chelsea is the best young goalkeeper in the world.

You have got the wrong guy. never made a comment on Butland or Ter Stegen and frankly don't care for either and actually one of the guys who has always stood up for DDG. I will say that chelsea have a super goalie in the belgian kid who plays in spain.

zee, welcome back mate, shappy u have said it all.

Courtois - although Ter Stegen has the potential to be very special. DDG is probably a little better than Ter Stegen at the moment - but in 3 or 4 years time I see Courtois, Ter Stegen and DDG being the 3 best keepers in the world (in that order).

Butland is nowhere near their standard. I caught quite a few games down at St Andrews last year and was less than impressed.

Ur doing the same thing with these 2 keepers that was done with De Gea when he made a mistake. Every Keeper makes mistakes there both very good young keepers. Ter Stegen, De Gea and Courtois will be the best keepers around in a few years

Interesting the list of forwards you have put forward, I would personally add Antonio Di Natale to the list, if you look at the league goalscoring statistics, only two players have scored more league goals in Europe over the last 4 seasons, the two being Messi and Ronaldo of course. So I always find it interesting how no-one considers him to be one of the best, considering he has acheived this playing for Udinese, who are hardly a major European force.
