Peter Schmeichel v Edwin Van Der Sar
Peter Schmeichel
Presence
9
He had incredible presence, he seemed to fill the goalmouth at times with his frame.
One-on-Ones
8
He was excellent on one-on-ones, very few players could get the better of him, most seemed to just bottle out when they saw it was him they faced.
Distribution
8
He had excellent distribution with his throws, which were almost as good as a kick in terms of distance. However he was not quite as good with his feet.
Shot Stopping
9
Had a big frame but was agile enough to get to most things and his size and excellent positioning meant a lot of the shots would just hit him as he was in the right place.
Command Of The Box
10
Possibly the most commanding keeper I have ever seen. You knew it was his box and what he said went, even when he was wrong, he was right.
Peter Schmeichel
Edwin Van Der Sar

One-on-Ones
8
Always very reliable in one-on-one situations due to having good feet.
Distribution
9
His distribution was excellent, especially his kicking.
Shot Stopping
8
His shot stopping was very good, but there were errors in him at times, he could be shaky on a rare bad day.
Command Of The Box
9
Had a very good command of the box, due to having good feet he was very good at getting to the edge of it to get to the ball or make a stop.
