Hearts' Steve Banks believes that Craig Gordon has proven himself the best goalkeeper in Britain since moving from Tynecastle to Sunderland. (Various) ;)

 

£10m for him was at least £5m too much.

 

Is that not the case with most transfer fees? Look at the money spunked on Chopra, Jones, Nugent, Albert Fucking Luque etc...

 

Either way hes a top class keeper.
