Then who? I'll tell you who.
Brian Jensen. "But he's Danish" I hear you cry...

Listen, I have nothing against any of those keepers listed above, but can you name a World Cup winning team without a world class goalkeeper? Ok, maybe Brazil '70 (Sorry, Felix), but otherwise? No, I didn't think so. And yes, Barthez was world class back in 1998.
