If he lets 10 goals or more in 3 games in the Afcon and more than half of them could have been saved he'll be forgotten even by Kabalega!

You beat me to it. 4 actually. Maybe in the future but on current form? Hell no!! Kind of throws the list into dispute though can't argue with the likes of Neuer, Buffon and De Gea being top 5.

Nonsense. So we should celebrate Africa's best goalie being rated at the level of the current day Peter Cech? Seriously? I think I should have taken my goalkeeping more seriously as a kid.

Onyango has been a top goalie for a while now. So if he has a bad AFCON, that's OK.

what are you guys on? What did he do to demonstrate his quality? Ghana barely tested him. Nothing he did to show he was better than the Ghanaian goalie. Almunia would have made the same saves.

He had one decent save, but he did look good when coming out to collect crosses. Comes across as experienced and confident, unlike the rest of his teammates.
