Top 10 Goalkeepers of 2013

The Top Ten
1 Amer Shafia

Plays on Jordan national team best Asian and Middle East goalkeeper

He is the best goalkeeper ever

Amazing goal keeper. Has all the qualifications to be one of the best goal keepers in the world. Great physical build, very quick reactions, super in saving penalty kicks and free kicks. The Japanese, Australian, Uzbek strikers were desperate and couldn't believe their eyes seeing him saving goals that are impossible to save. If he was playing for one of the European countries or in the champions league he would've been chosen one of the best goal keepers.Search for his name and videos in Asian cup 2011

If Amer plays for a famous football club or well known national team; he would've played with one of the beat teams in the world
As a matter of fact, people tent to watch the players who plays in the famous teams, we -in the middle east- used to watch the players in our region and in the international teams as well. Hence, we have the tools to do the comparison between the goalkeepers because we know all of them.
Reasonably, Amer deserves to be the best goal keeper in the world

2 Manuel Neuer Manuel Peter Neuer is a German professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Bayern Munich and the Germany national team.

Manuel Neuer is a very good goalkeeper I know I don't watch much of him but he is a very good goalkeeper I was watching the UFC league at Wembley and he was a very good goal keeper I saw the Bundesliga Bayern Munich VS Shalke 04 and he was rocking the house and a lot of friends from my school tell me his a entertaining and amazing goalkeeper that's why I think he should be best

He once helped schalke reach the semifinals and gave top performances. Now he continues to deliver a world class performance with FCbayern, he led a huge role in the final against bvb when he carried the team in the first half. He does not only save shots from opponents, he is also a captain on the field and a motivator. He can even be the last defender when the full bayern team are attacking in last minutes like he did against leverkusn and chelsea

Manuel neuer should be the Best goalkeeper in the world, The way he safe was so amazing. I can see the way he play in the UEFA. And what I see is, I don't believe that manuel neuer can safe C. Ronaldo penalty. I vote manuel neuer to be the top and the best goalkeeper in the world.

All round beast, commands the box and a fantastic shot stopper. He has superb reflexes and diving skills. His kicking is out of this world and in actual fact I think he can kick out of this world literally. Thumbs up to Neuer best GK in the world

3 Gianluigi Buffon Gianluigi "Gigi" Buffon (born 28 January 1978) is an Italian professional goalkeeper who plays for Serie B club Parma. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest goalkeepers of all time, and by some as the greatest ever.

It is difficult for Juventus to replace Buffon. He is the flagship of Juventus and for the time being no one can take his place even if he is getting old and maybe losing some flexibility. Juventus are hoping that the youngster Nicola Leali will be Buffon's heir and for this season he is playing and gaining experience in Serie B. Buffon has talent, a gentleman, and is a leader.

This man is unreal... Having to be the best goalkeeper for 10 years!. I think he should be number 1 of all times... I understand that casillas is first because of him wining the world cup but other than that he can't be compared to the legendary gianluigi buffon!

Goalkeeper of the decade and the 21st century, Buffon is widely considered as one of the best shot-stoppers of all time. A true captain, and has flabbergasting saves! If ther is an opportuninity to buy a goalkeeper, by Buffon now!

Rated as one of the best in the world. Has taken both club and country to new heights compared to what other goal keepers may have done.

4 Iker Casillas Iker Casillas Fernández is a Spanish retired professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper. Popularly dubbed "San Iker" for his ability to produce spectacular saves, Casillas is widely regarded to be one of the greatest goalkeepers of all time.

After the match, he received praise from fellow Spanish goalkeepers and England goalkeeper Gordon Banks, who stated "Casillas' reflexes are incredible. If he continues to play this well he will become one of the best goalkeepers in the history of the game.

Iker Casillas is much better than all the keepers because he has the right timing and everything although he didn't do well against Brazil 2013 confederations cup final because they where all terrible lucky goals but you should all know that Iker Casillas is the best goalkeeper in the world it says it on his shirt that's why I have baught everything of Iker Casillas and I have it on my wall

Iker Casillas is the best goalkeeper in the world. He keeps his eye on the ball and never stops. He will always dive from far away and he won't care if he breaks a bone. It is impossible for any soccer player to score on him. He should be on the top of the list. He is a lot better then Petr Cech. Casillas is the best.

Saint iker Casillas won the World Cup with Spain in 2010, making two crucial saves in the final in one-on-one situations against Arjen Robben. He also won the European Championship in 2008 and 2012. He has won the IFFHS World's Best Goalkeeper award four times.

5 Petr Čech

Petr cech does well every year like in the champions league he smashed bayerns munichs faces.

He best and always has been, all round game is top notch compared to those like Casillas, stick Casillas in the Premier League he would look on par with Tim Howard. Petr Cech then Gianluigi Buffon, different level.

He should be at number 1.

Petr Cech does so much better than many goalkeepers in the world, but as we all know that UEFA always picks best players and best goalkeepers from Spain, please explain to me how Victor Valdez is better than Petr Cech, did you lot not watch the champions league games? No goalkeeper would have done better than Petr Cech!

6 Joe Hart Charles Joseph John "Joe" Hart is an English professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur and the England national team.

He is just truley the best in the world righ now. Cassilas is also one of the best but Hart just throw's him on the streets. Not only is his goal keeping ability amazing but add the fact that he is amazingly fast. There is one video of him running back from a corner and his speed is just unbelievable. I truley think that he is the best not only in 2013 but as well as at least in the top three of history.

The best keeper in the world right now. He is stable at Manchester City and England's national team. He has been one of the best in recent years and in the coming years, he will be easily the best of all the times.

He plays on englands national team for so long now even though he is getting older he can make upper 90 saves all day long his hands are stable and overall a terrific goalkeeper

Great keeper, together with city's not so awesome defense(although also very nice one) conceded few goals, and a great man
Deserves place after buffon, cech, casillas

7 Hugo Lloris Hugo Lloris is a French professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper and is the captain of both English club Tottenham Hotspur and the French national team. Lloris is described as a goalkeeper who "boasts lightning reflexes and good decision-making" and is "a formidable opponent in one-on-one situations". ...read more.

I think his the best goalkeeper in the world his reflexes and I think he will be succesful at tottenham and france he know he is in the part when france when out from the group stage of fifa world cup but I bet he will improve his goalkeeper next year in fifa world cup 2014 in brazil and he will try to make france to go in to the world cup final and in the future he will be the best goalkeeper in thw world

Super reactions, amazing saves! Tottenham are lucky to have him!

1) More international experience and Champion's League experience than Neuer, Hart, and others.
2) Awesome reflexes!
3) Great anticipation!
4) His challenges and output on the feet are excellent.

He has good reflexes and reaction which is the key for him to stop deadly shots passing through him and keeping clean sheets for country and club. He was great at Lyon and is going to make a name for himself as the man between the goalpost of Spurs

8 Thibaut Courtois Thibaut Nicolas Marc Courtois is a Belgian professional footballer who plays for English club Chelsea and the Belgium national team as a goalkeeper.

He will grow with the years because he is humble, smart and physical. Then, he is young so will learn and will give Belgium his best spotlight in Brazil, making him unavoidable

He is awesome. Everybody says he is the best Chelsea goalie and used to be the best Athletico Madrid goalie due to the fact that he left. If he is not number 1. He should be in the top 5/10

He is a giant, many of his saves are unbelievable. He's never lying a long time on the ground and he is always ready to dive. He should be in the top 10.

Voted for best Keeper in Spain. Atletico said no to casillas, why? Cause they already have Courtois ;). And on this list Casillas is first...

9 Pepe Reina José Manuel "Pepe" Reina Páez is a Spanish footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Italian club S.S.C.

He is in liverpool and I sport liverpool

His got something better that no other keeper in the world has the best distrubution

Excellent staring point of counter attacking, needs to improve with collecting balls at crosses and corners

He is good in everything but penaties he must improve

10 David de Gea David de Gea Quintana is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for English club Manchester United and the Spain national team.

I think that David de gea is better than Brad friedel+pepe reina

Good choice for the young keeper. The best under 22 goalkeeper, by 10000 miles. The 6ft4in shot-stopper is the youngest on this list at 21 years of age. The Red Devils shot-stopper saved a penalty from Robin van Persie last August in a 8-2 victory over Aresnal.

I guess he is the successor of Sir Edwin Van der sar

He has proved his doubters and critics wrong, at the age of 22 he has already established himself as number 1 for United, even from his recent performances in the European cup, which he kept 4 clean sheets out of 5, his form proves that he is a true contender for becoming one of the best goalkeepers!

The Contenders
11 Victor Valdes

Victor Valdes keeps his eyes on the ball at all times. He can dive amazingly far. He will always catch the ball. He always tricks an opponent into shooting off target. Victor Valdes is amazing.

He is aggressive and he had some great moves, which proves that he is a fcbarcelona's star player

Valdes has excellent dives and outstanding saves. If there's a goalie on sale, Valdes is the one!

Valdes this session is amazing better than any time before..he deserve being the goalkeeper for spain national team in the world cup

12 Peter Schmeichel Peter Bolesław Schmeichel (18 November 1963) is a Danish former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper, and was voted the IFFHS World's Best Goalkeeper in 1992 and 1993. He is best remembered for his most successful years at English club Manchester United, whom he captained to the 1999 ...read more.

Peter Schmeichel is obviously in the top three in the world, plus in my opinion he played for the best team in the world, Manchester United Football Club

If de gea is fifth who is not as good as Peter was back in the day. I reckon he should be first or second, he was unstoppable at united

The best goalkeeper Man Utd have ever had. Better than everyone on the list

You got it all wrong peter is the best in the world

13 Fernando Muslera

Unreal reflexes and very good technique for a goalkeeper.

Muslera is the best he has great reflexes

He's the best keeper.

Very good reflexes and relatively young as well!

14 Igor Akinfeev

This guy can dive very well. Technically-sound, brave, and hard-working, Akinfeev is one of the best keepers I've watched in recent years.

He is a Leader of his teams. High skilled and brave.

He a very good goalkeeper

15 Maarten Stekelenburg
16 Wojciech Szczesny Wojciech Tomasz Szczęsny is a Polish professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Roma on loan from Arsenal, and for the Poland national team.

He is way better than de gea

He is the best goal keeper in the world if it wasn't for arsenal to have him they probably wouldn't be as good as they am now

He's the best in the world, the only reason he's not compared to Neuer is because the Arsenal defense isn't good

No neuer deserves it

17 Brad Friedel

Yes he is amazing I totally agree with the person that put this up, why isn't he the priminister?

18 Diego López Rodríguez

He is head killer gk

He is a good goalie for Real Madrid.

Lopez is a great keeper and players of Real Madrid which is pretty good.In fifa 14 by ea sports Lopez is a great keeper!

He is the worlds worst goalkeeper

19 Itumeleng Khune

Itumeleng Khune deserves to be in the top ten, because the way he handled Brazil was out of this world, he is indeed the best goal keeper and the number 1 goal keeper in south africa

Ball distribution is out of this world, the way he commands his defense is superb no doubt why he is South Africa's number 1

The best in africa... Number 1 goalie in South Africa

Itumeleng khune deserves to be in th top ten. It just breaks my heart to see him on this position and he's one of the best around th world to me his my number one

20 Roman Weidenfeller

I wonder why he is ranked so low. He is maybe the best goalkeeper in the world, but his big problem is, that joachim low does not like him, so he never played for the german national team.

No wonder he is Dortmund's first choice goalkeeper. He should be on the top 10.

He is Dortmund champions league best player

I think that he should be in the top 10

21 Salvatore Sirigu

He is definitely one of the top 20 best goalkeepers in the world.

They call him the wall. They're right. SIRIGU SIRIGU SIRIGU

22 Ben Foster

Great goalie. One of the main reasons West Brom are doing so well in the EPL this year

Very underrated goalie. Better than Joe Hart!

23 Jussi Jaaskelainen
24 Asmir Begovic

He's been one of the best goalkeepers in the premier league this season.

Brilliant reflexes, diving ability, good and strong in the air, commanding, kept stoke in the league this season, unbelieveble goalkeeper.

Most goals saved in all of 2013

Best goal keeper ever

25 Guillermo Ochoa

-Amazing reflexes
-Can easily cover the entire post.
-Consistent
-performs excellent against quality teams.

He's in MY top ten best goalkeepers and one of the most interesting to watch play. He goes hard. Beast.

Should be in the top 10. Saved Ajaccio from being relegated twice and performs well especially against top teams. Considering the team he has I think he's doing extremely well.

Better then victor valdes
