Scotland's best-ever goalkeeper trio - turkeydinner - 20-03-2015

Former international number one Andy Goram believes Scotland have never had a better group of goalkeepers.

Manager Gordon Strachan this week suggested that Craig Gordon, David Marshall and Allan McGregor form the best "three" in international football.

I don't think it's just coincidence that we last qualified for international tournament finals when we had Goram and Leighton performing as well as any keeper in Europe. We haven't had a keeper do particularly well in qualifiers since then until the present campaign. Didn't think I'd ever be rooting for Marshall in goal but McGregor and Gordon for all their shot stopping ability have both become increasingly prone to blunders, while Marshall has got much better with age.

Banks/Bonneti/Springett were not bad either
