The former Manchester United goalkeeper insists that the Bayern Munich shot stopper is better than Real Madrid’s Iker Casillas.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Manuel-Neuer-c23424 has proved to be a sensational signing for Bayern Munich as the player has continued his impressive performances from last season. The goalkeeper had a tremendous first-half of the campaign and has been one of the few positives for Bayern after the winter break.
Schmeichel claimed that Neuer has replaced Real Madrid’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Iker-Casillas-c16815 as the best goalkeeper in the world. The former Manchester United player insisted that the player has great reflexes and anticipates the situation brilliantly.
The Dane hailed the German international for his intelligence between the sticks. He admitted that the player has impressed him heavily in the last two years especially in his stunning performances last year against Manchester United in the semi-final of the UEFA Champions League.
“Neuer is simply sensational. He has replaced Casillas as the best goalkeeper in the world. He has excellent reflexes, and his anticipation skills are fantastic. I have seen a lot of situations where it seemed as if he knew exactly what the striker would do, especially in one-on-ones,” he was quoted as saying in an interview.
Schmeichel added that Neuer will remain at the top for many more years to come as he is still 25 years of age. He hailed the Bundesliga clubs for their brilliant youth system as Germany now has some of the best goalkeepers in the world currently which includes the likes of Bernd Leno, Marc-Andre ter Stegen and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ralf-c30492 Fahrmann.
“Neuer is the best in the world, and will remain the best for many more years to come. It's amazing to see how many superb goalkeepers http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 have at the moment,” he concluded.
Peter Schmeichel made a total of 292 league appearances for Manchester United, winning five Premier League titles, three FA Cups and one UEFA Champions League with the club. He also had 129 international caps for Denmark in his 14 year long career.
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Denmark-c2884 international won the ‘UEFA Goalkeeper of the Year’ award four times in his career.
