Ex-Celtic star Steven Pressley has hailed Craig Gordon as the BEST goalkeeper he's ever played with - ahead of Andy Goram and Artur Boruc.
Gordon could be on his way out of Parkhead over a contract dispute. But Pressley believes his former Hearts teammate should be a priority for the Hoops.
Having worked with Rangers' greatest ever keeper 'The Goalie' Goram as well as Celtic's maverick Pole Boruc, Elvis is seemingly best-placed to make the decision as to which stopper was the best. And he claims Gordon edges it because he could 'make saves others couldn't.
He told EEN: "Craig is a top-class goalkeeper. He is the best I was fortunate enough to play with, an incredible keeper.
"When you mention Goram you are talking special goalkeepers but I genuinely believe Craig Gordon was the best I worked with. Because of his agility and size, he could make saves that others couldn't. He was also very good in one-against-one situations.
"He had great flexibility and could make himself really big in one-on-ones. He also has a really great temperament for the game."
