Kahn?

Commentary on: First XI: World Cup Goalkeepers

While I can agree with most of the list, the inclusion of Oliver "watch how hard I can punch" Kahn on any all-star list is embarrassing. Though he was/is proficient at keeping the ball out of the net he couldn't catch a cold on a damp, mild day.

I did not think his tournament in 2002 was all that great, I don't think he deserved the Golden Ball and he sure shouldn't be a role model for young goalkeepers (in goal, I can't claim to know the morality of Mr. Kahn).

It was after all his mistake that cost Germany the Cup in 2002.
