- 20 July 2005
A few months ago a publication in which I wrote occasionally commissioned me to make some historical rankings by position for footballers because next year marks 50 years of existence. As they gave me freedom to do it, I started doing the first of goalkeepers and I want to know your opinions, criticism and suggestions, maybe your own rankings.
