@@nav1235 That cost us winning every home league match in 2010/11! Still consider him one of the greatest players ever, absurd levels of calm and grace
Schmeichel was a very good keeper, but Edwin took it to the next level. He really was, not only an incredible keeper he was also a truly fantastic athlete and you can understand just why Fergie cadjoled him into playing on longer than he initialy wanted to. Salute!
No Schmeichel was an explosive keeper who commanded from the back. Similar to Kahn. VDS was a different breed though, similar to De Gea.. Silent, quiet and makes every outfield player forget there is a GK coz he makes everyone , defenders , midfielders, attackers feel secure...
@Sweatyst Je L are you clowning? Cech isn't even better than VDS. Do you know who Lev Yashin is? He won Ballon dior at an age where goalkeepers aren't celebrated unlike now. He is the very 🐐 of goalkeepers.
I would love to say "Sir Edwin Van Der Sar". Can't forget those memories that he had given us, -Community shield all penalty saved against Mourinho's Chelsea -Champions league winning penalty saved -Always with both hands, even in the top corners list can be on and on. He was best and supported by one of the best defenders of the time. Neville, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra. That's why he still hold that record 1311 minutes without conceding a goal. True Legend. On the other hand De Gea also has that potential to be the great keeper but the defenders in front of him doesn't deserve to be there. If supported by top class defender De Gea will be creating so many history in coming years. Hope Jose Mourinho soon finds the stability in the team.
What I love about van der sar is he could save in the top corner and hold on to it. I think I only saw one like that on this video because they don't look so spectacular, but that was his bread and butter.
Yes, and for 6'5, he was pretty agile as well, moving quickly across goal. Not to mention he was already 35 when he joined us. I think his only weakness was he was vulnerable when keeping his near post. Also his footwork was kinda bad.
Fantastic goalkeeper. I remember as a United fan having so much faith and confidence in Edwin when we had him. I felt that if/ when he was beaten it was just because of a fantastic strike. He rarely made any sloppy errors. Think it was Fergie himself who said that we should've signed him in 1999 after Schmeichel left to take the reigns. In saying that I think Edwin just pips Schmeichel for me in my dream United XI. Simply because I watched more of him over the years he was playing, and I was very young when Schmeichel left United. . Hoping and preying Edwin pulls through now while in hospital. He seems like a very kind and genuine man.

Best goalkeeper ever, had it all. Calmness, communication, positioning, great reflex, never a bad period or weird errors, long reach, athletic, tall, good with his feet and a penaltykiller. Seriously, what do you want more from a goalkeeper? He’s like a prototype of the ideal gk. Best ever for me.
This is united's best ever goalkeeper for me! He had it all, calm, composed, well organised, good feet, exceptional positioning and great communication!
This is the pinnacle of what a great goal keeper should be. His form was impeccable. The best in the world at the time. I would rate him on Par with Peter even better.
still remember since the era of edwin van der sar defending manchester united. I am very happy and know. that before the kick off begins. I'm sure Manchester United will win. especially in 2007-2008
Van der sar really did love Manchester United, he'd die for the club on the pitch if he had to, he'll dive no matter what's coming towards him to save the ball. 😢❤❤ Always respect legend.
Lovely times as a United fan..knowing that after beating defenders ,goal keeper is a whole headache to beat as well…Love United forever..good times being a United fan..
Fantastic keeper, one of the best. Just a pity he wasted years at Fulham before coming to United. That was one of the strangest decisions ever when he left Juventus and picked Fulham over United. Schmeichel had gone and the door was wide open but big Edwin reckoned Fulham were going places lol..
@@markob53 The way I remember it United were definitely in for him but Fulham were on a high with plenty of money behind them. Something steered him away from United, maybe he didn't fancy replacing Schmeichel at that time...
He'd had a torrid time at Juve and Fulham was the only team that went all in for him when Juve wanted rid. We missed an opportunity then by not going for him.
a very tall keeper who was exceptional at staying low in the pocket when making the save required it, could cover the shots to the corners, possibly the best i've ever seen play GK.
one of my all time heroes! Buffon, van der Sar, Kahn. The time back then was awesome! (Kahn my favorite, because I'm a Bayern Munich Fan from Germany for over 20 years now and he left his incredible mark on this era!
He aged like a fine wine. Had Sir Alex bought him in the early 2000's, im sure van der Sar could have won much more clean sheets, golden gloves, and PFA TOTY.
And F Barthez before EvS, he too was considered no1 gk back then, shame the injuries ruined him but he was always a bit undisciplined outside the field.
Best goal keeper of modern times if not all time for me and most underrated .. some of those saves aged forty is unreal he never declined like most keepers do. Superhuman effort
Agreed. But Edwin said himself that if he was signed by United earlier in his career. He was quite old already when he came to United. But a great goalkeeper allround.
Edwin use to be my Joint number one United goalie and it was tough out of him and Peter they had to share the number one spot. I always felt confident watching a game with him in goal. The moment Peter Schmeichel joined Man City he became a disappointing memory, Edwin became my all time Goalkeeper, i miss this kind of leadership at the back and we need it again.
As a MU fan, I really love him. Watching his saves make me feel like he know where the ball will go and I think CB will really confident. Best GK of Mu for me.

Sorry but..Schmeichel
sorry dude, van der sar was great but schmeichel was the best
best ever was van der sar. second was schmeichel. barthez was a flop
Schmeichel is the best but VDS took it to the nezt level.
Not only in man u but top 3 in history no doubt -barca fan.
van der Sar had such calming authority. He controlled the box without needing to shout at the defenders. Had such a presence between the posts.
Get well soon, Edwin

One of my idols growing up one of the best goal keepers of all time. What he done for United was legendary.
Van der sar would hold onto balls without parrying them whereas the same shot most keepers wouldn't even reach. Absolute legend
