He said: We’ve had some great keepers at this club and I think he’s challenging both Edwin [van der Sar] and Peter [Schmeichel] for the number one spot historically. We had a good back four and David in behind them was unbelievable. You are allowed to have a good goalkeeper.I’ve played with a few fantastic goalkeepers. We have a tradition of having them and he has grown and grown. He deserves that man of the match [award].
