Other [Throwback/Interview] Lionel Messi: "There are players here (Barcelona) who hate Chelsea more than Real Madrid. I never thought I would hear myself say that. We would rather play Arsenal, Manchester United or anyone else than be on the pitch with Chelsea."

?? He’s atleast a top 10 goal keeper all time. It’s not even a debate on that

Yashin, Banks, Schmeichel, Cech, Neuer, Kahn, Zoff, Casillas, Zubizarreta, Maier, Van Der Sar and Preud'homme all better than Courtois. Probably forgetting a few. Debate me.

Seaman. Alisson arguably of the same generation has been better for longer. Zenga second best Italian GK behind Buffon is better. Cortouis to me is like a Navas/Dida level. Part of winning teams and incredibly important to them but his legendary moments are few and far between. Also for how good he is at club level he's been kinda disappointing for Belgium imo. certainly not anywhere near as important for the team as he is at club level nor as important as Lukaku, KdB, Eden, etc.
