Hmmmmm, that almost leaves me stumped.

Perhaps they based it soley on how many saves in total the keeper has maded?

You seem ridiculously smug about putting 5 past Crystal Palace. We could all say Papa Bouba Diop in an equally smug voice, if you'd like.

Nope they have high save percentages too. Carrol's is around 80% and Cech's is about 76%

The palace's keeper was 81%. Again before the United match :-D

depends what stats they look at it. Maybe they are not looking at the whole spectrum, but just the saves/shot ratio. Cech/Carrol dont let in many goals, but thier goals hardly have many shots at them with the good defense in front of them. Only remember Carrol actually making one save against palace.

Baros deserves to be in there, definitely. We love you, Milan, you've been awesome. And you know you're the best striker in the Premiership who isn't Henry :)

If that is the case, I lose a lot of respect for SS.

must be purely stats based. jaidi getting in there becasue the goals he has scored from defence. Henry probably didnt make it becasue his actually shots/goals ratio isnt that hot.

Baros, Hasselbaink must have been more clinical with thier chances.

How the feck did they work that one out?

The top 3 scorers in the Prem aren't in there, Henry, Johnson and Defoe

Hmmmm. W-P vs. Downing is close.

W-P edges it in my opinion.
