Doesn't make any sense to say that and then to ignore Guzan's sparkling work for Villa.



There's colossal a difference between "ignoring" a player and not rating him as top 5 in a pool. In fact, I've mentioned multiple times that Guzan is a very solid GK, I'll even go a step further and say that he would start for a few European countries that will be in Brazil.

I don't see how we've had ten players who have played better than Guzan has for their clubs


Which is why I'm talking about club and country. I've made that clear in multiple posts in this thread. Why you choose to ignore that, I don't know.

I'm a SKC fan, and even I'm putting Guzan over Besler.

Which again is silly. Donovan only action for the US the past year was the GC, which isn't nearly on the level of the opponents that Guzan faces weekly. Even further, if Guzan had played the GC, he would suddenly shoot up your rankings because he happened to keep clean sheets again hapless opponents? What sort of sense does that make? I think the criteria you use to make those judgments is myopic, not that I care you don't think Guzan is top 5 or whatever. It lacks the required context, and for that reason annoys me. But carry on believing what you want.
