It's such a strange save that it's quite hard to judge it. It might be a bit flukey or weird or it might be one of the greatest saves of all time. I genuinely believe if a 'famous' GK had done that we'd be watching it forever. |  | |  |

I have to disagree. Seeing it in person from the angle I did, I thought at the time it was astonishing because the ball was behind him, and he somehow managed to claw the ball over the net in a way I have never seen a goalkeeper do before. Seeing it on video only confirms my view. But it was probably too unorthodox to feature in a save of the month competition. |  | |  |

It looked like a fairly simple save to his left, but the unorthodox way he threw his arm at it made it look a bit more 'spectacular'. Watching that link, I really dont see a sensational save. If anything, he made it more complicated than it needed to be. |  |

Happy to agree to differ. He made a simple save look difficult. Coincidentally I used the word unorthodox further down in the thread, so at least we are agreed on that! ha. [Post edited 7 Mar 19:57]

What made him do that (and makes it a very good save) is that he had gone down expecting the shot instead of the pull back and he is only just getting up again to make the save. |  |

An element of luck, but there often is with goalkeeping. A brilliant instinctive reaction, incredible to direct it away from goal somehow. The reactions on the Villa fan videos say a lot! |  |

A "fairly simple save"?!?!? What planet are you from? |  |

You always seem to be so negative/miserable towards anything about ITFC. |  |

Yep, personally the saves on the shortlist have more technique than Palmers (which was still a great reaction stop). AP's was a top save, but at this level there are many of those. More importantly, seems a major upgrade on Muric. |  |

Always thought the same about Banks vs Pele. Easy. 😂 |  |
