Former Juventus and Italy Coach Marcello Lippi believes Gianluigi Buffon “has always been the best”.
The goalkeeper was man of the match as the Bianconeri beat Lyon last night, bouncing back from criticism after mistakes for the Azzurri and his club.
“We’re talking about the absolute number one,” Lippi shrugged, speaking to Tuttomercatoweb.

“We’re talking about the absolute number one,” Lippi shrugged, speaking to Tuttomercatoweb.
“He has always been the best. I’ll keep saying the same thing I’ve been saying about Gigi for 20 years: when a normal or low-level goalkeeper makes a mistake there’s no criticism, because expectations aren’t high.
“If an error is committed by a stronger player, everything is magnified. Buffon is Buffon: the number one.”
