And don't mention Seaman as being better. You retards.
And if were not talking about current form then there is still Paul Robinson, Chris Kirkland and David James who have yet to be mentioned.
He has already kept 7 clean sheets this season, which isn't bad.

Ah, Schmeichal - there's another goalkeeper who's been playing very well indeed.
To be quite honest, there are quite a lot of goalkeepers in the Premiership who have great futures, and some that are quite old but are still playing fairly well and could go on for a few seasons more.
Both goalkeepers have been fairly consistent all season, maybe not so much in Seaman's case, with his errors, but overall, he's not too bad a keeper, and has been playing well in the past few games, and Given has also been playing consistantly well over the last few games.
Both good goalkeepers, that as I said, both deserve a mention.
Fabien Barthez
He can be a great goalkeeper at times, but sometimes he just doesn't deserve to be playing in the Premiership, let alone for Man U. Ok, admittedly, he's on form right now, but at the start of the season he wasn't playing well at all - making all kinds of mistake. In my opinion Man U need a new keeper before the start of next season, or he's going to do something very costly.
Jerzy Dudek
He wasn't too great at the World Cup, but going into it, he was one of the highest rated keepers in the world. He's been fairly good for Liverpool so far this season as well, but in the last few games he's had a real dip in form, and has been mainly to blame for a couple of Liverpool's losses due to silly little mistakes. No doubt he'll regain form again sometime soon, but right now, he's not the best keeper in the Premiership.
Those are the two high profile goalkeepers that you'd expect to be letting in a few goals, but they've both made costly mistakes for their clubs so far this season. Now here are two goalkeepers who I feel are right on top of their form at the moment.
Carlo Cudicini
The Chelsea goalkeeper is on brilliant form at the moment, and this season he has been the most successful golie in the Premiership. He's had a number of clean sheets, and very few goals scored against him, giving Chelsea the best defensive record. He's doing well at keeping Ed De Goey out of the Chelsea starting line-up, and I feel he'll be a very valueable asset for Chelsea in the future.
Brad Friedel
Played exceptionally well at the World Cup for the USA, and is tremendous when penalties are involved - saved a fair few at the World Cup and has saved more than he's let in so far in the Premiership too. Has now reached the peak of his goalkeeping career, and it is continuing to go up, and if his form doesn't start going down soon, he will be the best goalie in the world, in my opinion.
I wouldn't say that he is easily the best, as Chelsea's Cudicini is also very good. There are loads of brilliant keepers in the Premiership, but a few are making very costly mistakes.
