Craig Gordon can 'be the best'
Roy Keane, the Sunderland boss, believes that goalkeeper Craig Gordon can be the best in Europe and battle with Chelsea goalie Petr Cech for the tag. Keane recently insisted that Gordon was one of the only players for Sunderland that he would not consider selling.
Keane said: "Craig is a terrific keeper and I know him well from my spell at Hearts," said former Tynecastle boss Burley. "He was absolutely superb at that time. He also faced a big test at Sunderland but came through it very well.
"Craig is still maturing at the age of 24 but, for me, he is already one of the best keepers in European football.
"At the other end, you have Petr Cech who, perhaps, is the top keeper in Europe given the standards he sets with Chelsea and with his country.
"So it will be fascinating to look at the two goalies on Friday."
