i agree completely, but de gea would be in front of the other 2 in my opinion, hes just plain better. although van der sar made lots and lots of epic saves, de gea does it in every game, its like hes not even trying. you can see him on the pitch covering all the angles, he can beat the striker before they even shoot, hes a machine
Nah, de gea is amazing but the only reason van der Sar didn't make those amazing saves like de gea does is because his positioning was so good, so he didn't have to pull out the amazing saves
Van Der Sar is my favorite keeper of all time as I watched him growing up and is the reason I follow Manchester united but if it wasn't for schmeichel setting the standards for keepers we wouldn't have people like De Gea playing for our squad now
De Gea is very impressive technically, but Schmeichel remains the best keeper I've ever seen. He was a massive guy yet he had incredible reflexes and agility, at close range he used his arms more effectively than any other keeper at the time, you can see that at 3:12 for example. He had such a huge presence on the field, constantly shouting at his team mates, he was a nightmare for attackers and defenders alike. He was in my opinion the biggest founder of what is expected of a keeper nowadays
Star Jump! I agree on all parts but Schmeichel has a similar problem to what Neuer has in my opinion, which is to not clear the ball properly the 1st time. This is one of DeGea best features, but they both recover well if it does come back at them quickly, which a credit to both.
Peter "The Great Dane" Schmeichel was a beast of a keeper.... He knew how to sort his defence out! After he left United, the defenders knew their roles because he drilled his orders into their heads.... Literally!
Remember that Van der Sar was a soccer player (I thought a midfield player, but I'm note sure) 'till the age of 16. From that age he became a goalkeeper. Because of his more than good positioning qualities and outstanding goalkeeping qualities he is the absolute #1 of all time. Schmeichel was a outstanding goalkeeper but was almost "retarded" at positioning. Just search YT for "Schmeichel positioning blunders/fails". De Gea is still "work in progress", but I don't think he will reach the level Van der Sar was, but who knows. He is the successor of Van der Sar for Manchester United, but could not handle the pressure. He has the potention to be as brilliant as Van der Sar, I think. For all the haters..... Proof me I'm wrong 😉👊
when de gea came to utd everyone was like why they bought this kid. now same people are saying he is the best in the world. he earned that.#respect for de gea.
yeah de gea was pretty shit in his first season, i remember him coming on the pitch back then, his shirt didnt even fit him properly, he looked like a kid lol
Not true he was really really bad at first they was gonna get rid of him , than he became ok ! Van der sar is the best all time at Man U ! Especially after last weeks and the goals de gea let go in !!!
Thesnake9 Hahaha, amazing joke. Probably gonna say that Messi is the worst soccer player too. (And btw he said in his opinion so you don’t need to correct him)
Having played as a keeper myself, I would say Schmeichel. Van der sar was an amazing shot stopper (reaction saves and blocking/diving in front of the line), as is De Gea (probably slightly edges Van der sar and Schmeichel on that front), but Scmeichel was the complete goal keeper in terms of shot stopping, closing down angles, intimidating attackers and marshalling the defence. He was like having an extra defender in the team - a defender that could start an attack run as well because of his fantastic distribution of the ball after a save
Schmeichel is the best keeper man u have had he always came out and put his self in front of the ball like a defender and plus his reflexes and agility
Schmeichel made defenders scared to go through on goal 1v1 because they knew they were going to get cleaned out. He was the most commanding goalkeeper ever and also an amazing shotstopper...he could fly to the top corner no problem. He was my hero. Neuer is the closest thing to the Great Dane but still not at his level
Van Der sar was so good to see, everytime the opposition had the ball u was so satisfied because Van Der Sar had all over control. He was so smooth and good. So 100p Van Der sar
Comparing Schmeichel to any other gk is sacrilegious to the sport itself. His combination of leadership, intelligence and raw skill is clearly unmatched to this day.
I've never witnessed Schmeichel or Van Der Sar because I'm only a teen. I've only ever seen De Gea and I love De Gea. All these goalkeepers are superb and I've seen some of their best highlights. I believe that Manchester United produces the best keepers : )
Schmeichel was in that team that broke through and reclaimed the trone after so many years where United never won the title. That shift in the teams mentality took an immense belief, power, skills and leadership. And in center of that teams quest you found two men who set United above everybody else: Cantona and Schmeichel. One scoring the goals and the other keeping it. Schmeichel would tear up the premier league, letting no-one doubt who was the best keeper in the following years, setting new stadards constantly revolutionising the way keepers should play the modern game. He would plague strikers out of their minds with his almost violent way of coming out of his goal, his almost superhuman power in one v one situations. Unbelievable keeper. Best keeper not only in United but in the leagues history.
Scmeichel of course. The complete package of world class shot-stopper, leader and a total monster. He was not just about shot stopping and reflexes. He had a huge influence, also with the accuracy of his throws out of defence to launch counter attacks. Greatest of all time.
the last 4 penalties that they showed Van Der Sar saved 3 penalties in a row not 4 ,the 4th penalty was in a different match can you see the back round change after the the first penalty
Each of them has their own strength.. Schmeichel with his bravery, VDS with his intelligence, DDG with his instinctive reflexes.. all of them are world class for sure
Been supporting this club since 1988. Been blessed to see absolute legends between the sticks. That said, for me Schmeichel is the greatest GK of all time, not just in United's history but football overall. BUT instead of comparing, I just sat back and enjoyed 3 club legends :) Yes even young DDG has my full respect and is already a "legend". Just a fun video for a supporter overall, thanks for posting :)
If you grew up in the 90´s then you know that Schmeichel reinvented how goal keeping was supposed to be. He was the first, the best, he was/is The Great Dane that led the danish national football team to their victory in EM 1992. And he is/was the man who Man Utd needed the most in their time of need and he secured every titel possible. Do not bother discuss this issue, the others are great goal keepers no doubt about it. But Schmeichel was the person who invented that style of goalkeeping. The others wouldnt be as great as they are without Schmeichel.
First of I would like to say, all three of them are WORLD CLASS. Shot stopping: I would say they are really close. De Gea is probably a little ahead of the other two, because his reflexes and positioning are out of this world. Ball distribution: Both Van der Sar and Schmeichel were better than De Gea at this. De Gea can be a bit sloppy with the passing sometimes. Schmeichel probably takes #1 spot in this category. Penalties: No discussion here. Van der Sar hands down takes this, with Schmeichel as #2. VdS ability to psyche out the penalty taker was quite fascinating to watch. Dealing with crosses: This is something De Gea struggled a lot with the first couple of seasons, however he has improved a lot over the years, but he's still behind Van der Sar and especially Schmeichel. Schmeichel was a very imposing goalkeeper and I've seen many strikers pull out of a challenge because they've heard the freight train that is Schmeichel come crashing towards them. Leadership: Hands down Schmeichel with Van der Sar behind him. This is probably De Gea's weakest attribute. Both Schmeichel and VdS were a lot better at organizing and communicating with their defense.That being said they also had a better defense in front of them. De Gea is still young and I have no doubt he will improve this a lot in the future. So, based on this I would rank them Schmeichel>VdS>De Gea
completely agree except for one thing: VdS was the best at distributing the ball, not Smeichel. Another fun fact is that VdS was notoriously bad at penalties early in his career.
I agree but I dont agree with final ranking because, the most important attribute is shot stopping and de gea is in another world compared to them two, also in one on ones, ddg is much better than them two. Ddg is better than them two in 3 most important aspects of shot stopping including diving, positioning and reflexes.
@@adiloz12 I think Consistency is the most important attribute for a goalkeeper, and DDG has been making some mistakes lately. Also Smeichel was much braver in 1v1s So I'dd give that to Smeichel as well. As far as reflexes and shotstopping when hes not making mistakes, sure DDG takes it.
@@Coup0705 Could be that i'm not factoring that in properly, do you think that Schmeichel had better overall distribution than Van der Sar? I do love a gk that can pass with both feet and has a range well beyond the halfway line, though gk's like Gomes and Neuer have had great succes with long throws
De Gea no doubt in my mind. He's saved us on countless occasions, unlike the other two who have had real defenders in front of them. Imagine having to make saves like those 10 times a game... Only De Gea can say he can relate.
Schmeichel had players in front of him that came from the youth academy mainly, De Gea had the players money could buy. Schmeichel won throphies Van Der Saar won throphies De Gea hasn't. De Gea and Van Der Saar played with one of the most scoring players of all time. Schmeichel hasn't. Overall schmeichel was on a better team true but because they had a manager who made everyone deliver and who didn't gave passes to the other teams. And you really have to watch all the footage of schmeichel and van der saar so you can see how many occasions they also saved. Like fa cup semi final to win the trebble against a Legend striker who almost never missed penalties. thats a pretty big save in my world.
Schmeichel is one of the most importent reasons Utd made such a blast of the 90`s, While van der Sar was not any less good Scmeichel was just happened to be there at their glory-days. De Gea on the other hand has to deal with a world where money and results counts for everything. It is hard too say who`s better they all played/play in a different Utd-Team, different opponents and players have evolved so much over the last 3 dacades.. In my oppinion Schmeichel where the best in the world, matched only by a few like Buffon/Köpkee/Illgner and Kahn.
Peter schmeichel is arguably the best goalkeeper to ever live, nevermind the best out of Manchester United's history. He was unbelievable, anyone who knows goalkeeping knows it's Peter schmeichel
luke tyson13 yes I did actually, youre trying to say a guy who has performed world class for 4 years is better than a guy who done it for 15? I'm not saying de gea won't be the best ever, I hope he is one day, but he's still young and has a lot to do to overtake schmeichel. We won't be able to know for another 10 years
luke tyson13 and implying that yesterday's performance makes him better than schmeichel is absolutely ridiculous, overruling a 15 year career by 90 minutes lol wise up
luke tyson13 well he should have 10 years to do it so hope he does, but it won't be easy at all. Has a lot to win, because in 30 years it'll be looked back at schmeichels achievements, hopefully Dave's too because he is sensational
You can see over the years how outfield play has improved and play has become faster and more skillful. I followed Schmeichel all his career, he was the best. But, when you see the level of competition Van der sar was up against and the level De gea are in you have to say De Gea. However, and with hindsight of Schmeichel and all of his honours, Schmeichel made the greatest difference to the club. A tough one. All greats.
Schmeichel and it's not even a debate,he had things you can't teach,BRAVERY,LEADERSHIP, PRESENCE (opponents feared him) and was also excellent technically.Not only is he a united legend HE IS A FOOTBALL LEGEND as well.
Schmeichel and van de sar and de gea .the difference. Schmeichel and van der sar both had world class players in front of them .de gea has a load of overated overpriced ordinary players in front of him
No offense, back then those players in front of p.s were not really well known just so you knw. Dont make it overpriced issue. For me, p.s is the best all time
Disagree entirely. Shay Given looked great with crap defenders in front of him, doesn’t mean he was the greatest, he was just busier. Van Der Sar gets my vote on this, no nonsense goalkeeping, he did everything right.
All of them best goalkeepers of their generation. I respect De Gea though He was our main man fr 7 seasons single handedly saved United from relegation. 5 consequative times in the Epl team of the year.
Schmeichel without doubt is the best keeper Utd have ever had PERIOD. He's is(was) an absolutely world class goalkeeper and a true leader on the pitch. I can't rate him highly enough and I'm a Liverpool fan so please feel free to argue against this.....
Schmeichel then De Gea then Van Der Sar! Manchester United are now breeding the next star as well Sergio Romero! Amazing man and amazing talent! United will always have good keepers no matter what!
louisLives 98 You do know that Romero is older then De Gea and in his late twenties/ early thirties right? Nevertheless, I completely agree with you. Romero could easily walk into many other Prem sides 😁
Schmeichel by far... He had all the qualities of a worldclass goalie, which he was... In my humble opinion, he was the best in the world, in his prime... They way he threw the ball, and hit the intended target everytime... Insane His reflexes was second to none...
In United colours, Schmeichel gets my vote. Absolute beast he was! But VdS is my favourite, because he made all those crazy-ass saves for us when he was already past his prime. That being said, de Gea's reflexes is second to none! So yeah, I'm confused! 😂
3 goalkeeping Titans. Peter set the bar for modern keepers, everyone else tries to follow but these 3 are all epic in their own rights, the greatest keepers and shot stoppers of their generations for me.
Old enough to have watched all three - the answer is Schmeichel. When he charged the attacker on a one-on-one most attackers either kicked the ball at him, blasted the ball out in to touch or hit the corner flag! The other two are totally brilliant mind you, but attackers really feared Schmiechel in my opinion. Utd have been blessed with keepers - Ferguson could pick good ones for sure.
I think van der sar was the best just because he was brilliant during the time where the ball was transitioning from the rock hard balls of the 90's and early 00's to the light floaty ones used in now. not an easy change for a keeper because of the flight patterns of the ball. even with the transition Van Der Sar was able to perform equally as good as the other two
Any united fans who doesnt believe that the GREAT DANE is the best Keeper in their history is delusional. The leadership, man management from the back and sheer domination of his 18 yard box was incredible. Those long throws and huge goal kicks were outstanding. For me even as a Chelsea Fan, he will always be my no.1 pick for a keeper.
De gea is phenomenal! He’s like that perfect replacement for Smeichel except for the leadership traits. We’ve been blessed with great keepers over the decade.
Schmeichel- leadership
Van der Sar- positioning
De gea- reflexes
Jack Star absolutely

And you really have to watch all the footage of schmeichel and van der saar so you can see how many occasions they also saved. Like fa cup semi final to win the trebble against a Legend striker who almost never missed penalties. thats a pretty big save in my world.
Poor young man 😢
Schmeichel the best :)
All is best but de gea is creative

Schmeichel won keeper of the year 5 times... I think he is a level above the two others
Ok would u rather Van Der sar or Peter Schmeichel in FIFA mobile.
In real life Schmeichel was by far the greatest keeper ❤️⭐️
van der sar is the best because he got the best diving in the word de gea for rexfles and schmeichel for the leader ship I can't chose
Three great keepers...all great shot-stoppers...always Schmeichel for me though. So much power coming off the line 👍
Schmeichel is one of the most importent reasons Utd made such a blast of the 90`s, While van der Sar was not any less good Scmeichel was just happened to be there at their glory-days.
De Gea on the other hand has to deal with a world where money and results counts for everything. It is hard too say who`s better they all played/play in a different Utd-Team, different opponents and players have evolved so much over the last 3 dacades.. In my oppinion Schmeichel where the best in the world, matched only by a few like Buffon/Köpkee/Illgner and Kahn.
Umm did you watch Lev Yashin?
Interesting to see the different styles. Schmeichel with the sheer bravery, VDS with positioning and DeGea with reflexes.
Peter schmeichel is arguably the best goalkeeper to ever live, nevermind the best out of Manchester United's history. He was unbelievable, anyone who knows goalkeeping knows it's Peter schmeichel
luke tyson13 yes I did actually, youre trying to say a guy who has performed world class for 4 years is better than a guy who done it for 15? I'm not saying de gea won't be the best ever, I hope he is one day, but he's still young and has a lot to do to overtake schmeichel. We won't be able to know for another 10 years
luke tyson13 and implying that yesterday's performance makes him better than schmeichel is absolutely ridiculous, overruling a 15 year career by 90 minutes lol wise up
luke tyson13 well he should have 10 years to do it so hope he does, but it won't be easy at all. Has a lot to win, because in 30 years it'll be looked back at schmeichels achievements, hopefully Dave's too because he is sensational
Lev Yashin.
Peter Schmeichel absolutly
You can see over the years how outfield play has improved and play has become faster and more skillful. I followed Schmeichel all his career, he was the best. But, when you see the level of competition Van der sar was up against and the level De gea are in you have to say De Gea. However, and with hindsight of Schmeichel and all of his honours, Schmeichel made the greatest difference to the club. A tough one. All greats.
Edwin will always be my favorite since he inspired me as a child
Remember van der sar save v Lisbon in 2008
3:14 the best save that I still remember since I saw the match.
Schmeichel and it's not even a debate,he had things you can't teach,BRAVERY,LEADERSHIP, PRESENCE (opponents feared him) and was also excellent technically.Not only is he a united legend HE IS A FOOTBALL LEGEND as well.
Schmeichel no question. Biggest, bravest. Best Ever!!!!
Schmeichel and van de sar and de gea .the difference. Schmeichel and van der sar both had world class players in front of them .de gea has a load of overated overpriced ordinary players in front of him
Shut up de gea is nearly same level ur saying that he saves shots from bad players
No offense, back then those players in front of p.s were not really well known just so you knw. Dont make it overpriced issue. For me, p.s is the best all time
I agree
Disagree entirely. Shay Given looked great with crap defenders in front of him, doesn’t mean he was the greatest, he was just busier. Van Der Sar gets my vote on this, no nonsense goalkeeping, he did everything right.
cooldino 123 ur an idiot hes saying de gea has a harder time cuz he has a bad back 4 😂
All of them best goalkeepers of their generation.
I respect De Gea though He was our main man fr 7 seasons single handedly saved United from relegation.
5 consequative times in the Epl team of the year.
Schmeichel without doubt is the best keeper Utd have ever had PERIOD. He's is(was) an absolutely world class goalkeeper and a true leader on the pitch. I can't rate him highly enough and I'm a Liverpool fan so please feel free to argue against this.....
Peter has made a load of double saves. ♥️
One on one there was only one. Kahn and other German keepers had some of the ruthlessness too, but only Schmeichel had it all.
Who is here after de gea renew contract 2019
Schmeichel then De Gea then Van Der Sar! Manchester United are now breeding the next star as well Sergio Romero! Amazing man and amazing talent! United will always have good keepers no matter what!
louisLives 98 You do know that Romero is older then De Gea and in his late twenties/ early thirties right? Nevertheless, I completely agree with you. Romero could easily walk into many other Prem sides 😁
Romero has 7 clean sheets in 8 matches in the cups i think. not sure but something like that.
Schmeichel by far... He had all the qualities of a worldclass goalie, which he was... In my humble opinion, he was the best in the world, in his prime... They way he threw the ball, and hit the intended target everytime... Insane
His reflexes was second to none...
They are all legends
Who's here after *De Gea's* performance vs tottenham ✋😂🤣
:( we deserved to win
Say less lol
Sports At Source me
I'm here after his performance vs Arsenal. He's slipping.
George Casual moi
In United colours, Schmeichel gets my vote. Absolute beast he was! But VdS is my favourite, because he made all those crazy-ass saves for us when he was already past his prime. That being said, de Gea's reflexes is second to none! So yeah, I'm confused! 😂
Manchester United have had 3 of the 5 best goalkeepers ever, in my opinion!
4 and 5 is Casillas and Neuer
Mathias sandvik and Buffon is 6
Yes! definitely. I like your taste
Mathias sandvik but my favourite goalkeeper is Shovkovsky from Dynamo Kiev
But there is yashin
Peter and De Gea AWESOME
VAN DER SAR GREAT
De gea is the best
3 goalkeeping Titans.
Peter set the bar for modern keepers, everyone else tries to follow but these 3 are all epic in their own rights, the greatest keepers and shot stoppers of their generations for me.
Peter Schmeichel always the best ever
Old enough to have watched all three - the answer is Schmeichel. When he charged the attacker on a one-on-one most attackers either kicked the ball at him, blasted the ball out in to touch or hit the corner flag! The other two are totally brilliant mind you, but attackers really feared Schmiechel in my opinion. Utd have been blessed with keepers - Ferguson could pick good ones for sure.
Nuff Said!
Fergy did have a couple of duffers too lol. Shoulda got vds when Peter the great left
I think the DeGea has the potential to get to this level.
Schmeichels save against Rapid Vienna at 2:12, is like one of the best saves any keeper ever made.
Fantastic video. Peter Schemeichel is a legend!
Thanks bro
I think van der sar was the best just because he was brilliant during the time where the ball was transitioning from the rock hard balls of the 90's and early 00's to the light floaty ones used in now. not an easy change for a keeper because of the flight patterns of the ball. even with the transition Van Der Sar was able to perform equally as good as the other two
Any united fans who doesnt believe that the GREAT DANE is the best Keeper in their history is delusional. The leadership, man management from the back and sheer domination of his 18 yard box was incredible. Those long throws and huge goal kicks were outstanding. For me even as a Chelsea Fan, he will always be my no.1 pick for a keeper.
Peter is 103% the best 3:55
I dont think De Gea is the best yet, but at his age and already being compared with the legends, De Gea must be more than just special
De gea is phenomenal! He’s like that perfect replacement for Smeichel except for the leadership traits. We’ve been blessed with great keepers over the decade.
Van der sar and Buffon are my favorite Goalkeepers...
We talk about loyality...
I prefer van der sar to be my first choice goalkeeper , as his contribution for the club like man utd is very massive ...
I like Peter the most he is the legend. Edwin are one of the best. And David is now No.1 of the world in this era. He's gonna be a legend too. 👍👍👍
Schmeichel is the best,, winner champion and euro 92
Van der sar is a legend, but my vote is for De Gea. He is amazing and world class
Van der sar is légende,his position make him the beast.
United have been blessed to have these 3 keepers in goal over the last 25 years
Cost of all of them when they came to united
peter schmeichel-500K
Edwin van de sar-2 million
de gea-20 million
They're all the best
Asking "Who is the best?" Is like asking which one of your 3 kids do you like the most.
Kier Luke 👍👍👍👍
