Buffon - The Perfect Circle (Almost)

[Spherical Planet]

At 43-years-old, the best goalkeeper of my lifetime has rejoined his first senior club in Parma.

This almost completes a perfect circle for the man except for one major deviation. A season at Parkhead prior to going home would have been the ideal wee detour before finishing his career at his first love.

If not just for his presence, could you imagine the experience he could pass on to our current crop of keepers?

Missed a trick there troops...........that could have been the short-term answer to a long-term problem, with the bonus that he may well have solved that problem for our other keepers as well.

Aye Buffon was good but he ain't no Barkas!

After long consideration, I've changed my mind and decided that it's a toss of a coin between Ian Andrews and Carl Muggleton for the title of 'greatest keeper ever to don a non-luminous and fairly dark tap to ever grace our beautiful game'.

Is Barkas the next Buffoon
