In this article i am discussing top goalkeepers in the history of Arsenal.
Here are the five top goalkeepers of Arsenal.
5. Frank Moss (1931–1937)
Moss
is remembered by all Arsenal supporters because of the goal he scored. The goals
was scored in a 2-0 win against Everton at Goodison Park which made Arsenal the
league winners. That goal was not scored from the keeper position that time he
was playing as a left winger due to the shoulder injury he suffered earlier in
that game. The Englishman played 143 games for the London side. He died on 7th
February 1970 at the age of 60.
4. Bob Wilson (1963–1974)
The
player who was born on 30th October 1941 in England is on number
four. The 72-year-old former Gunner played 308 games out of which he managed
125 clean sheets. He won First Division and FA Cup during his eleven years at
Arsenal.
3. Jens Lehmann (2003–2008)
Unbeaten
season is a big honour for any club or a player and Lehmann was part of that
season in which Arsenal were unbeaten. The German goalkeeper spent five seasons
in which he played 200 games for Arsenal. Premier League and FA Cup are the big
honours he won at Arsenal.
2. Jack Kelsey (1949–1963)
Arsenal
signed him from a local Welsh club in 1949 after which Kelsey replaced George
Swindon and remained the number one keeper for more than eight years. He was
the only keeper who used to rub his gloves with a bubble gum to get a better
grip. He played 327 games for Arsenal in 14 years of
stay in London.
1. David Seaman (1990–2003)
Another
English player who made 405 appearances during his 13 years of stay at Arsenal.
He was transferred to Manchester City before that unbeaten season. His big honours
