I know he is probably in the top five keepers of all time

but watching Buffon play makes you realise how poor the likes of Robinson and Green really are. He is so assertive and decisive - never looks like letting anything in. Also his organisation from set pieces is something to behold - literally going from defender to defender telling them what to stand and where to go.

On another note - very impressed by Gattuso as always. Fantastic combatative player and a great attitude; takes the rough with the smooth; apologises when he fouls and gets up straight away when fouled. A role model for some other Italians.
