Seaman – who played for City and most famously this weekend’s opponents Arsenal during an illustrious career – paid tribute to Ederson ahead of the exciting Etihad encounter on Sunday, kick-off 16:30 (UK).
“In Ederson, City have a real belter there,” said Seaman.
“I choose him as my Premier League goalkeeper every year, ever since he’s been here.
“I love the way he keeps goal. I love the way he doesn’t make camera saves. He tries to make it look easy and that’s what I used to do.
“His left foot is a wand. He makes saves when he’s had nothing to do and, trust me, that’s the hardest part of goalkeeping.
“Then he will make big saves when he’s been relatively quiet in a game and that’s really tough.
“I used to do that with Arsenal and England.
“You don’t have much to do and then you’re required to be at your best and he does that really, really well.”
