Former Brazil goalkeeper Julio Cesar cannot pick who is the best keeper among Alisson Becker and Ederson.
The national team is blessed to have two of the best shot stoppers on the planet at present.
Both are thriving in the Premier League for Liverpool and Manchester City respectively, and have won countless honors in the past few seasons.
"Great question, I will stay quiet!" replied Cesar to Goal.com about the question of who is better.
Cesar added: "In the last years, after Dida and me, the people in European football started to look for our position in Brazil as an important position.
"When I arrived in Italy, there was talk about Waldir Perez in 1982 [a goalkeeper who made high profile mistakes in a World Cup]. They said I was an example that goalkeepers in Brazil were getting better. I was like, 'no, Brazil has always had great goalkeepers.' Now, you guys have just started to respect our position.
"Now, if we talk about the best three goalkeepers in the world, we could talk about Ederson and Alisson. It isn't just those two but there are many others in Europe. Most people respect Brazilian goalkeepers in football now... when you talk about goalkeepers for the World Cup, Tite doesn't need to worry about either of those two."
