Anyway don't listen to me, listen to Bob Wilson who thinks the same as me and knows far more about what it takes to be a top goalkeeper than you or I.
Bob Wilson is a legendary Arsenal keeper and is entitled to his opinion . But , just like pundits , his opinion is not a gospel .Having been a good player does not necessarily mean you can spot a talent or assess a player . Most of scouts have not been very good players themselves .
When Wenger started using RVP as the main striker we heard many ex :top players and pundits disagreeing and urging him to buy a striker instead because they believed Van Persie was not up to the job . They were all proven wrong .
