Neither Saves nor Goals Conceded or Clean Sheets define a GK performance.

Other GKs in the game who had 0 saves and no GA will get a different rating.

PS. Its not the ratings that are bust (although they did seem to give a global boost for a win - like feckin fantasy football! grrr) but the stats which describe them.
A GK performance should be rated mostly based on the number of saves, catches (from corners for example) and mistakes made. Ball distribution can also be considered.
