Who is the best Keeper in the PL? Where does Howard rank? [R]
I've seeing him playing lately and he just looks better than ever. Excellent range and control. I think he should be among the top 3 at the very least. If he continues playing like this, dont expect him returning to MLS within the next 10 years.

Re: Is Tim Howard the best keeper in the English Premier League?
Top five no doubt. I think Lehman is the best though. But, I may be a little biased.

Keepers better than Howard in the premiership:
1. Lehman (Gunners)
2. Healthy Cech (Chelsea)
3. Van De Sar (Manure)
3. Shay Given (Geordies)
4. Friedel (Blackburn)
5. Reina (Liverpool)
then Howard

Re: Is Tim Howard the best keeper in the English Premier League?
No, he is not.
...oh lord, always the same we are the best...any fringe american player is not always the best when they crack the starting line up. 1-3 years in any league does not put you at the top of the food chain above proven, established, accomplished veterans of major championships. Lets hope he has a good career then make these evaluations. Clearly he is good enough to be the starting keeper for Everton. Clearly he is not good enough to be the starting keeper for Manure.

Re: Is Tim Howard the best keeper in the English Premier League?
This must be a joke. Reina's mistakes are the reason why Liverpool aren't even close to title position. He'll be gone in January, Carson or Green to Liverpool.

Friedel and Lehman better than Howard, I dont think so. Maybe in the next life.

The guy obviously hasn't watched one Liverpool game this season, Reina is horrible.
I'll bet he's one of those guys that rates players on how their ratings are on FIFA 06.

I don't like Lehman, but he is good. If you think Howard is better than Friedel, I'm not really sure there's anything we can say to you. You clearly have a personal bias (just as I do the other way most likely).
