Goalkeepers - Traditional vs Acrobatic

[RagingTrav]

Which style of goalkeeper do you prefer/find better? Personally from experiences playing I find the acrobatic keepers are better shot stoppers as long as they have some decent height. Traditional keepers seem a little slow to react IMO. What are everybody elses opinions though?

I've used Traditional more often. I think the Trad keeper tends to catch the ball better but is slower. I think the Acrobatic keeper can stop more shot but allows too many rebounds...imo

I've also felt that traditional goalkeepers are better at 1 on 1's. The acrobatic keeper is great at long shots though. IMO

I've found the 1 on 1's the other way around. The acrobatic keepers react to shots quicker than the traditional keepers who may get in a better position but are often beaten if it isn't hit straight at them.

My opinion anyway.
