Kelvin Leong is bedazzled by an Ivory Coast hitman who showed the world why he is regarded as one of the best in the business and also a certain Chelsea captain who has found strength from within to play through a difficult time.

Brad Friedel - Aston Villa

Most people consider Edwin van Der Sar and Petr Cech as the outstanding goalkeepers in the English top flight but the giant American stopper has been around for a good decade and is still up to the mark. He made numerous saves to keep Tottenham at bay on Saturday night.

It has been a tough season for the veteran Dutchman, who suffered two lengthy absences before being granted compassionate leave just before Christmas when his wife Annemarie suffered a brain haemorrhage.

Thankfully, his wife has recovered sufficiently well for Van der Sar to resume his career at Old Trafford, bringing a sense of stability to a side that had been struggling for consistent results.

"It feels really good to be back playing," Van der Sar told United Review.

Jordi Codina - Getafe

He conceded two goals but no goalkeeper in the world could have stopped Lionel Messi's peach of a goal. Made some superb saves to give his side a fighting chance against Pep Guardiola's team.

Sergio Ramos - Real Madrid

Ramos can play anywhere along the back-four because of his versatility. He looked disinterested in the first half of the season but seems to have upped his game in the last two months. What Ramos brings to an already impressive Madrid lineup is his aerial ability both in defence and attack.
