Diego Alves

[Ini8]

That is not fair at all!

I wonder if he'll be considered as Spain's #1. All they have to do is park the bus and he'll save them in the penalty shootout

He's Brazilian.

He's Brazilian.

Oops, my bad

I stiil wonder why he was not their #1 in the world cup

 

[Blaugrana Bull]

Probably not enough reputation. I think Alves has been a solid gk for years. Not the best with his feet but an incredible shot stopper.

 

[Truthist]

He's Brazilian I think unless we have another Diego Costa situation in the making. Another head banging decision when you consider Scolari not once picked him.

Just goes to show that anybody can be a "professional" scout or manager.
Still can't believe Fred was Brazil's 1st choice striker at the WC with Jo being 2nd...

 

[FC B]

Barca should have went for him instead of Jasper.

 

[El Flaco]

His wage demands was too high for a 31-year-old who's gonna be a back-up for Ter Stegen...

What an insane Penalty stopper! Messi d hav got at least one Copa had Alves been Argentinian n played for Argentina instead of that clown Romero

 

[Morten]

Has he really saved 24 penalties out of 50?

I don't remember exactly but he has probably saved more than 24 pens out of 50+

 

[Windhook]

Yes, he's saved tons of penalties, but that's all about him.

Can't disagree with that! But still, I d pick Alves over that Man Utd's bench warmer any day of the week
Would be nice for us to hav him as a subtitute goalie though!

Romero is one of the last players that should be blamed for Argentina's performances. He has done well for them.

He's still a box of chocolates type of goalkeeper, like Valdes/Muslera... you never know what you're gonna get. Could be amazing, could be useless.
