Show me a keeper who doesn't.

If you find one, he's probably less than 3 games into his career and just hadn't dropped one yet.

It's poor judgement to ever expect error free goal keeping. Look for Peter Schmeichel errors and you'll find them. It didn't make him a dodgy keeper.

Hats off to the recruitment team for this one because Dieng is special. A top all round goalkeeper. Best since Randolph. Possibly even better than him.

Better than Randolph for me. He was a good shot stopper but often stayed on line and not commanding in the area.

Dieng is also good at claiming the ball in the air and relieving pressure on the defence. I think this aspect is what separates a lot of keepers. The Vast majority are decent shot stoppers it’s the decision to come and claim and actually achieve it make a massive difference
 
Better than Steffen and at least as good as Randolph. With Randolph there were games where he literally won us 3 points on a regular basis - we saw shades of that with Dieng yesterday. I would argue we're stronger at the back than we were when Randolph was our #1 though.

Should be our first choice keeper for the next 5 years, minimum - and no reason why he couldn't possibly still be with us in his twilight years.
