Manchester United dream team - the greatest ever Red Devils

Monday, 9 April 2012

<b>PETER SCHMEICHEL
Goalkeeper</b><br/>
Manchester United, 1991-199, 292 appearances
United have a patchy record with goalkeepers for some reason and for every Harry Gregg or Edwin van der Saar, there's been a Chris Turner or a Gary Bailey. Not dreadful (Taibi) but not always top notch. Schmeichel tops them all. Physically intimidating, his athleticism could be astonishing, his willingness to improvise equally so - as his dignity-shredding star-jump saves would attest. Life threatening to defenders as well as opposing strikers, he was clearly barking, but unarguably the best goalie the Premiership has seen.
