Dunno, but as it happens I was about to look on FPL at leading keepers and their assists.
*checking*
Fantasy Premier League Goalkeepers 2008/09
Leading Points
142 Schwarzer
132 Reina
132 Cech
130 Van Der Sar
130 Almunia
Leading Assists
2 Reina
1 Given, Jaaskelainen
Bit surprised it is only two for Reina, not surprised he's top. I would have thought VDS would be further up given his run of clean sheets, but then he probably doesn't save much. 13 clean sheets in a row, ironically the last was against Fulham. VDS has 62 saves according to FPL, Reina 70 and Schwarzer 117.
Most Saves
123 Carson (WBA)
117 Schwarzer (Fulham)
111 Jaaskelainen (Bolton)
99 Friedel (A Villa)
Saves as a percentage of shots might be a better way of representing the keepers, WBA have conceded 55 so you could say* he's saved 69.10% while Liverpool have conceded 21 so Reina has saved 76.92%. Then again FPL is rather flawed, a defender gets more points for scoring than doing his job and keeping a clean sheet - and more for scoring than a forward whose job it is to score. And why don't assists count as much as goals?
*assuming that anything there isn't to save doesn't go in, anything there is to save is either saved or goes in.
By the by, made Ashley Young my captain to jinx him, terrific game he had! Best remove all villa players from my side to stop them being jinxed next game up, already loaded my side with Fulham players
