Settle an argument

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Settle an argument

Post by SammyDroppedHisShorts »

Which keeper has conceded the most goals against Arsenal since the Prem started?

I reckon Shay Given or Paul Robinson have both shipped in a hatful.....but does anyone know of any stats for keepers conceding whilst playing against Arsenal?

My mate reckons Tim Flowers or Ian Walker

GUNNED DOWN BY GUNNERS
Hi Martin. Fantastic column. Just left the Emirates after witnessing Arsenal thrash Blackburn 7-1. However my question is about Paul Robinson. In his spells at Leeds, Tottenham and Blackburn, he has been in high scoring games and on the receiving end of some maulings. So I am asking how many Premier League goals has he conceded against Arsenal and is it the highest against a single club for Premier League keepers. Ray Joseph (Arsenal Fan)

MARTIN SAYS: Paul Robinson has now faced Arsenal 21 times in the Premier League and on Saturday the number of league goals he has conceded against them rose to 60.

Thanks to our friends at Opta I can tell you that, remarkably, Robinson held the record for the most goals conceded by a goalkeeper against a single Premier League game BEFORE Saturday's clash. Those seven goals have only served to put him even further in front!

As you'll see from the list below, Robinson's record against Arsenal is now by far the worst for any Premier League goalkeeper. The only other 'keeper to have conceded more than 50 against one club in the Premier League is Shay Given, who has conceded 52 times against Manchester United whilst playing for Newcastle, Manchester City and Aston Villa.

Most goals conceded by a goalkeeper against a single club in the Premier League:

Paul Robinson v Arsenal (60)
Shay Given v Man Utd (52)
Mark Schwarzer v Arsenal (47)
David James v Man Utd (47)
Jussi Jaaskelainen v Man Utd (47)
Jussi Jaaskelainen v Chelsea (43)
Brad Friedel v Chelsea (43)
Shay Given Liverpool (42)
