Best Liverpool goalkeepers - With over 100 years of development history, Liverpool has established its position in the football world. Along with outstanding achievements, the contribution of talented players cannot be overlooked. In this article, let's find out the top Liverpool goalkeepers of all time with 2Sport!
Throughout the history of Liverpool FC, perhaps no player is more deserving than goalkeeper Jerzy Henryk Dudek. He is a retired professional football player from Poland who played as a goalkeeper.
Jerzy Dudek began playing for Liverpool in August 2001 and spent nearly 8 years with the club. Dudek had a successful first season with 26 consecutive clean-sheet matches and was compared by fans and critics to Anfield legend Ray Clemence.
Jerzy Henryk Dudek has demonstrated his full potential as a main goalkeeper for the team and has won many awards. Such as the FA Cup champion in the 2005-2006 season, and the League Cup champion in the 2002-2003 season. In addition, he also helped the team win the FA Community Shield in 2006. Especially, the prestigious UEFA Champions League trophy in the 2004-2005 season.
Alisson, the famous Brazilian goalkeeper who is currently playing for Liverpool, whose full name is Alisson Ramses Becker. Despite his relatively young age of being born in 1992, he has become one of the top goalkeepers in the world today. He is currently an indispensable part of his role as the main goalkeeper for Liverpool in important matches all over the field.
This talented Liverpool goalkeeper won the Golden Glove award for the English Premier League in his first season playing there in 2018-2019. Especially, he was also voted as one of the top 50 goalkeepers of the year 2018 by the Goal.
In particular, the current goalkeeper of Liverpool Football Club is highly honored when voted as the Goalkeeper of the Year according to the Globe Soccer. This is an honor for an outstanding goalkeeper who has made countless contributions to the red team.
When mentioning Alisson as a current goalkeeper of Liverpool, we cannot forget his predecessor, the talented Loris Sven Karius. This talented goalkeeper, born in 1993, was an essential player on this team from 2016 to 2018.
Even though he only played for the club for two seasons, Loris Sven Karius is still remembered by fans as a talented goalkeeper. He possessed a more mature playing style than his age. With the accurate ball-catching technique of a German goalkeeper like Neuer, he quickly pleased his fans with the runner-up of the UEFA Champions League tournament in the 2017 season. This was his best achievement before officially leaving the team.
Although not as successful as Jerzy Henryk Dudek, Pepe Reina is still highly rated as a goalkeeper. He is one of the most successful Spanish goalkeepers in the English Premier League.
Pepe Reina is one of the goalkeepers who had the longest tenure with Liverpool Football Club. He has nearly a decade of service to the Anfield team. Unfortunately, he joined the team during a period when the team was not in a stable performance. Nevertheless, Reina had a successful debut season when he became a hero in the 2005-2006 FA Cup final. He saved 3 out of 11 penalties in the shootout and helped Liverpool beat West Ham and lift the trophy for the 7th time.
In the 2006-2007 season, he helped the team win the 15th English Super Cup and faced AC Milan in the Champions League final. That's when he officially became Jerzy Dudek's successor in the years to come.
