Here's some of the best user comments left on the Eurosport-Yahoo! website, the Eurosport mobile app and the Eurosport Facebook page:
"As much as I don't like Man Utd, I have to admit that Schmeichel is by far the best goalkeeper. Commanding in the area, great decision making, great leader and even popped up with the occasional goal," Colin
"Seaman or Schmeichel, bloody hell make it difficult why don't you? I'm gonna give the great Dane the nod, but only just, simply because he won United more than a few trophies," Matt
"Seaman would be the English goalkeeper I guess, but this one is going to go to Schmeichel regarding what he has achieved. Second would be Van der Sar, he was incredible this season, it's sad for him not to win the Champions League, but I guess winning the Premier League was already enough since he didn't have such a great season. Other than that Seaman was a good keeper," Pete
It has to be Schmeichel. Best goalkeeper of a generation and one of the best ever. Other positions will be more difficult," Keith Miller on Eurosport Facebook page
"Yeah Schmeichel was great but a lot of people seem to forget his tendency to be in the wrong position and vulnerable to a lob. Great shot stopper, not so perfect on positioning. Van Der Sar was better - made less mistakes and achieved more," John
"Seaman, wonder keeper, wish he had a son who was a keeper. Arsenal's crisis would be sorted," jamie1019 IWWT on Eurosport Mobile App
Come back on Monday when we will give you the shortlist for the right-back position.
