8. Pepe Reina

• Club(s): Liverpool
• Premier League appearances: 285
• Premier League clean sheets: 134
• Premier League titles: 0

Pepe Reina played under one of the most defensive managers the Premier League has ever seen, during his time at Liverpool he made 285 appearances for the Kop and managing to keep 134 clean sheets having a 47.02% clean sheet average

Reina was one of the first goalkeepers in the Premier League to truly embrace playing with the ball at his feet and his agility led to some quite breathtaking saves reminiscent of the Orca’s jump to freedom in 1993’s ‘Free Willy’.

With his heroics it was sad that Spanish failed to lift the Premier League with Liverpool.

7. Jens Lehmann

• Club(s): Arsenal
• Premier League appearances: 148
• Premier League clean sheets: 54
• Premier League titles: 1

Let’s not beat around the bushes, Jenns Lehman might have been one of the best goalkeepers of his time but let’s not forget the fact that he was mad and crazy. One day his making great saves on the pitch they other day his throwing water at an official in the highbury tunnel (Former Arsenal stadium)

The German played all 38 games in Arsenal’s invincible’s season but however only managed to make 21 clean sheets. He was a really good and big goalkeeper who intimidated strikers into making errors when they came face to face with him. Watch & Bet on Football Live =>

6. Joe Hart

• Club(s): Man City, Birmingham (loan), West Ham (loan), Burnley
• Premier League appearances: 340
• Premier League clean sheets: 127
• Premier League titles: 2

He might have fallen out of favor at Manchester City and made a permanent move to Burnley but we should not forget how good of a keeper Joe Hart is. The English international helped Manchester City to two Premier League title one of them being their first in 44 years.

Joe Hart has made 340 Premier League appearances and keeping 127 clean sheet’s but the figure might increase considering the fact that he is still a Premier League goalkeeper at Burnley. Watch & Bet on Football Live =>

4. Edwin Van de ser

• Club(s): Fulham, Manchester United
• Premier League appearances: 313
• Premier League clean sheets: 132
• Premier League titles: 4

Many say he is one of the greatest goalkeepers to ever play for Manchester United, fter struggling for form during a two-year stay with Juventus, Edwin van der Sar rocked up at Fulham in 2001 and set about restoring his reputation as one of Europe’s most consistent goalkeepers. His 127 appearances for the Cottagers did just that, as well as helping the Londoners extend their stay in the Premier League far longer than many expected. It also eventually earned a move back to the top with Manchester United.

After his arrival at Manchester United he reassured Red Devil’s their dominance helping them to win four Premier League titles and got their bragging right’s over the blue rival’s Chelsea and the Red’s of Liverpool. Watch & Bet on Football Live =>

4. David Seaman

• Club(s): Arsenal, Manchester City
• Premier League appearances: 344
• Premier League clean sheets: 140
• Premier League titles: 2

Seaman helped the Gunners to two Premier League titles during his time between the sticks at Highbury and while he wasn’t the best with the ball at his feet, as was the case for ‘keepers at the time, his shot-stopping capabilities knew almost no bounds.

Seaman also exuded an air of calm behind the Arsenal back four that was only really restored when Petr Cech made the switch to north London from Chelsea (more on him below). Watch & Bet on Football Live =>

3. David de Gea

• Club(s): Manchester United
• Premier League appearances: 259
• Premier League clean sheets: 147
• Premier League titles: 1

Undoubtedly the best goalkeeper at the moment in the Premier League if not in the world. David De Gea has amazing reflexes and is both good with his hand and leg’s.

Despite a shaky start to his life at Old trafford when he joined the side in 2011, by the time the Red Devil’s won their ;last Premier League title under Sir Alex Ferguson he proved the doubters wrong after his fine saves which helped united secure their 13th Premier League title under Sir Alex Ferguson.

The Spaniard has made 97 clean sheets since joining the Red devils in 2011, he pulled out a show-stopping performance in Man United’s recent 1-0 away win over Tottenham Hotspur, making no few than 11 saves to keep Harry Kane and Co. at bay. Watch & Bet on Football Live =>

2. Petr Cech

• Club(s): Chelsea, Arsenal
• Premier League appearances: 443
• Premier League clean sheets: 202
• Premier League titles: 4

Petr Cech announced that he will retire at the end of the season but we all know that the 36 year old is not yet done as a goalkeeper he still has some fire in him.

No goalkeeper has kept more Premier League clean sheets (202) or made more saves (1,005) than Cech, while the 36-year-old’s exploits also helped Chelsea to four titles between 2004 and 2015.

Cech was arguably at the peak of his powers during his first season with the Blues in 2004/05, breaking the record for most shutouts (24) in a single season, while also going 10 consecutive games without conceding a goal.

The Czech republican goalkeeper made 443 appearances during his time at Chelsea and Arsenal but mostly at Chelsea were he spent a number of good years and won four Premier League titles making him one of the most decorated footballers in the Premier League. Watch & Bet on Football Live =>

1. Peter Schmeichel

• Club(s): Manchester United, Aston Villa, Manchester City
• Premier League appearances: 310
• Premier League clean sheets: 128
• Premier League titles: 5

Personally, i think Petr Cech and Peter Schmeichel are my two best Premier League goalkeepers of all time

While the introduction of the back-pass rule may have highlighted a slight weakness with the ball at Schmeichel’s feet, the Dane was actually one of the biggest advocates of the rule change and the way it revolutionised the game. And in turn, with his trademark starfish save, Schmeichel had the same effect on the art of goalkeeping, making it a truly specialised position.

The 6ft 3in stopper was a key part of five of Sir Alex Ferguson’s Premier League title winning sides, including the treble-winners of 1999, and his overarm sling sent Manchester United on their way to many goalscoring counter attacks. And if that wasn’t enough, Schmeichel even got himself on the scoresheet during a 3-2 away defeat at Everton while playing for Aston Villa in 2001, becoming the first Premier League ‘keeper to do so.
