Top Ten Football (Soccer) Goalkeepers

Easily the best keeper, how many times has he saved Italy by pulling of amazing saves, no other keeper is as constantly as good as Gianluigi, you can trust him in goal, however old, he never fails to meet more than what is expected of him. For this I think he is the best player in the world. Come on Buffon.
Buffon is amazing. He should be number 1 on the list. Vote Buffon up. Buffon is much better than all the other goalies. Make sure you vote Buffon up so he can be higher than the number 1 guy at the time of making this comment. Buffon is amazing!
He is so great, he might be a little old but he is still the best goalie ever, Casillas is not really good, buffon is way more experienced and buffon is always calm under pressure which is hard to find in a goalie.
Come on bro. Where is Alisson Becker? He saved Liverpool in 2021 with his extraordinary last-minute header. Alisson Becker is the best goalkeeper of all time his quick reaction speed and ultra instinct make him truly the best goalkeeper in the entire world.

What. How the hell is Casillas #1. I'm not saying he doesn't deserve to be top 10. He should be at least #5. According to FIFA games, Neuer is 90 Rated and Casillas 84. I agree. Well Gianluigi in FIFA is 82 Rated, I think he deserves 84 Rated but slightly better stats then Casillas. Hey guys, did you see how Crappy and crappy Casillas was vs Chile And Netherlands, Spain Vs Netherlands. Netherlands 5-1 Spain. And they lost to Chile. LOOL.
Casillas is the best. Although I have only seen him play in one World Cup game (I just started watching pro soccer at that point), I have watched many La Liga and UEFA Champions league games. He has shown that he has the potential and skills to become the #1 goalie in the world. I have watched other goalies play but seeing him save every shot he can-and he does a lot of that-really gets me hyped to go out and play. He is my role model for becoming a professional goalie in the future and succeed in the sport. <3 you Casillas! (and by the way yes I am a 13 year old girl =D )
Actually, Iker Casillas is the number goal keeper in the world. Despite Madrid not crown as the leader of their league, he stay proved himself even at the world cup by guarding Spain to be the winner of the 2010 world cup. He is the last bus stop in the defense of Real Madrid and Spain and always number for the Spain national team. He is the best for now.
James Kaleewoun.
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. That's why he is the best Goalie as he never let his short height as his disadvantage over other goalies.

Fantastisc goalkeeper. He had some of the most spectacular saves, was almost always positioned right and really commanded his goal area.
He was also great in one on ones, where he often almost scared the attacker with when coming out of that goal.
One of the most wellrounded goalkeepers ever
How co he be in 4th place? You gotta be kidding me... He is, by far, the best GK ever. The 'XXL Shirt' had Casillas reflexes, Buffon concentration, and Neuer balance. Without taking away the merit to anyone, but Denmark only won the EURO92 because of him!
He is very good goalkeeper he most save in Manchester united. And is very good goalkeeper in Denmark. He is very good goalkeeper in Manchester united and Denmark I like Peter Schmeichel. He is very good goalkeeper
Ever time
Best goalkeeper ever, aside with Lev Yashin. His great and spectacular diving catches made him a legend. He even led the danish national team to their only European championship title. This is a real hero.

Revolutionizes goal keeper game. Is the eleventh field player, very often used as pass giver to change wings. Great. His moving range in the field is unmatched, he is always an option to play to. When defending high he covers literally his own half alone.
Why is he seventh, he should at least be no.3, he won the golden glove in 2014 world cup Brazil, best German player of the year and he's one of the three best contenders to get best player in Europe.
What? Manuel Neuer has to be in the top 3! He won the golden glove in the World Cup, is Germany's footballer of the year, and was in the top 3 for the Ballon D'or! How is he only number 7? He's the most amazing keeper of this time!
Manuel Neuer's grade would be Excellent. Oh my god, he's damned good man. He saved many shots. He is a German and he's from FC Bayern Munich. He won the Best GK award during the FIFA World Cup 2014

He is a legend of Chelsea.. He can save penalty like nobody else.. He can stop the impossible.. He is the best. He came back after an injury that could cause his life not once but twice and still came back as a Legend
He is the best goalkeeper ever. He whould be number 1... AND this is a message for the creator of this cite (put peter cech as number one) He always saves Chelsea and his country wich is check Republic he is the BESt, he hit himselve in his head and he still gives his life for their team
Petr cech has scored a goal and he is a wall of awesome he should be number one. He has proven his athleticism through huge saves and like a million clean sheets.
In my opinion... The Only reason Casillas is number 1 is because he has a Pro team Guarding the Goal. It will all Change if he is with a weaker club than Real...

Van Der Sar is a legend, Buffon too but van der Sar is a soul player! He deserves the number 1! Casillas is a good keeper but not a legend, maybe soon he will be, but never like van der Sar! I am not Dutch niether a Manu fan but he still deserves it! I have never seen a better goalie then him. Never!
All the Dutch goalkeepers are very good. It's a shame that this legend stopped with soccer. But look to other Dutch goalkeepers which are really brilliant and all in a good soccer competition: Maarten Stekelenburg, Michael Vorm and Tim Krul, and don't forgot all pretty young keepers. And the coming Dutch goalies: Sergio Padt and Erwin Mulder. Thumbs up for Edwin and the Dutch!
Edwin Van Der Sar is one of the greatest goalkeepers in the world! He retired at the end of the 2010-2011 English Premier league season with MANCHESTER UNITED as the Champions of England!
The underrated flying Dutchman. His inhuman reaction speed and eye-hand/leg coordination are incredible. Not to mention his solid kick.

He is the best German goalkeeper ever born no one in the history could match him and Peter Schmeichel, Van Der Sar, Petr Cech, Casillas and Neuer and no Goalkeeper can do such goalkeeping like Oliver Kahn did. He is the best goalkeeper ever who took birth from his mother
The only goalkeeper ever to win the Golden Ball in a World Cup. He really was the best of them all. The only competition is G. Buffon, D. Zoff, L. Yashin and I. Casillas. Everyone else is no contest. But potential goalkeepers will be G. Ochoa and H. Lloris!
Everything one could hope for in a goalie: Agressive, powerful, emotional and brilliant. One of a kind and certainly a titan, the likes of which we are privileged to see. What a man.
He blocks almost everything. should be number 1. He help Germany get to final! Only problem was... Ronaldo (the Brazilian one) scored an amazing goal.

Greatest goalkeeper to ever live. So far, Lev Yashin is the only goalkeeper to have ever received the Player of the Year Award. No one else on this list has managed that feat! Also, the rest of the Soviet team at the time were only half-decent, while all these other goalkeepers play for fanatstic teams with brilliant defenders. BEST KEEPER EVER!
You know what's legendary? Legendary is innovating so many new goalkeeping tactics that over half of them are still used today by world class goalkeepers. Lev Yashin not only achieved this, he managed to do this in a period of time in history when balls were packed with hard ass leather and attacking was much more aggresive. If Casillas was the Poseidon of goalkeeping, this guy would be Zeus.
Without this guy literally none of the goalkeepers above him would exist (as goalkeepers). I mean the only goalkeepers that can even come close to yashin are Gordon banks, Peter Schmeichel and Oliver kahn. This list is full of overrated goali's who wouldn't know the first thing about being a goalkeeper without this guy.
You may not know him but he is a Russian USSR goalie and is absolutely amazing and he is number 1 in a lot of lists so a legend and this is not my opinion, this is according to other websites as well.

Undoubtedly the greatest keeper the world has ever seen. The only keeper that I can't remember ever making a mistake. Also known for his legendary saves.
How? Just how is he not in the top 3 with Lev Yashin?
This guy is the 2nd best of all time behind Lev.
He should be top 33, definitely.

The oldest goalie ever to win the world cup.
He should be higher
Should be higher

Best goalie he is the reason stars didn't lose against the world masters because he saved so many shots from Messi and drogbra yesterday at miami. That is why he is going to lead Mexico and his team to victory again in the gold cup like 2011 when Mexico won the gold cup against usa.
HE the first goalkeeper in Mexico to play in a European team. He has amazing reflexes!
Not only is he in the top best goalkeepers...but he was on the cover of FIFA 08,already a champion on his team,an inspiration or a hero to some people,and he he is extremely young...
What a legend, currently the best goalkeeper in the world. Fact!

Joe is a brilliant young goalkeeper- home grown in the best tradition- started his career with Shrewsbury Town.
The best is yet to come!
Quality keeper but he's at Burnley now so maybe not quite better than De Gea, Lloris, Courtois, Gordon Banks, etc.
He's great player in my opinion
He should be 2nd or 1st I
Would have him in Barcelona
He's a awesome player.
Hart is really brilliant at what he do's in games. But sometimes makes mistakes of what he do's.

In 20 years it'll be victor valdes young goalkeepers study to improve their game.
San iker, buffon, neuer are all fantastic and maybe even better than VV in some ways, but the amount of responsibility valdes shoulders for Barcelona is underappreciated and the hallmark of a truly revolutionary keeper
I love him.. He's so awesome
Plus he's from Barcelona! Laugh out loud!
I love him, my father loves him, my brothers love him
My sister loves him
And my mommy loves him
And the whole world loves him!
We all love him
Valdes has more saves that casilas.. And more goals have been scored against casilas than valdes.. Valdes has also won many trophies with barcelona such as UEFA CHampions League, La Liga and the list doesn't stop
He's so nice keeper of Barcelona and Spain too. He saves so nicely so he is best keeper ever and always will be.

Awesome Man you goalkeeper. He has done many incredible saves for Man U. I guess he's a substitute goalkeeper for Spain.
Best goalie in history. Should be higher. Long live De Gea and Manchester United.
He deserves to be the best. He has bedn Manchester united player of the season for the last two season.
Surprised to see him THIS low. To me, he is by far the best goalkeeper

Very nice Goalkeeper. He is a good Belgian goalkeeper. He is currently a goalkeeper for Chelsea. His saves are good. He deserves to be on this list.
Thibaut always is the save king if Chelsea are in trouble. By far he is better than de hea I mean Chelsea won the league. If it wasn't for him we wouldn't have won the premier league. Keeper no1
Seriously I am a Chelsea fan and personally I think Courtois is a great keeper and he should be in the top 5.
He's considered the best young goalie in the WORLD. How can he not be in the top ten?

I think the best footballer of soccer is Ahmad Reza Abedzadeh. He is the could be said as the king of football he is the number 1 player in the world of football. His shots are marvelous shots in the world. There is no way to defeat him
He best goal keeper
He was one of the best goal keepers in Asia, in addition his the best goal keeper in Iranian football history! He was a confidence bomb in Iranian national team!
He is one of iranian goalers. He is the most famous and professional goaler in Iran and specialy Asia. Years ago he played for fc-Perspolis and had a golden time there. All the perspolis fans like me love him very much
Eagle of Asia. We never forget you

Such a good goalkeeper
Just imagine him in a few years time!
Good not best but good
One of the best Tottenham goalkeepers ever, he has made some incredible saves such as against Olsson vs West Brom
Hugo lloris made a ton of saves in the group stage (France:7 Switzerland:6 Ecuador:4 Honduras:0

After he won 2011 the Cup with Uruguay, one of the best Keeper's in the world, maybe we can see him later in the Champions League with Galatasaray Istanbul, because in the turkish league I can't see much of him...
Top 5 keeper in Europe in 2012/2013, did a great job at Champions League this year, and maybe going to Barcelona, but I don't hope so, he should stay at Galatasaray! UltrAslan!
Way better than most of which are above him in this list, I think he is first or second in the world but not everybody gets to see him.
He is good. But he is still young he has lots of years for improvement. He may be at the number one spot by the years to come.

Very underrated. He is one of the main reasons why Atletico Madrid is one of the best Spanish clubs in Europe.
Why is he all the way down here? He's literally the best current keeper right now!
Oblak is an amazing player and he is very underrated.

Best. Goalkeeper. Ever. Heres a video to show how. Go to Youtube, and search Rene Higuita and click on the first option. Watch and you'll be amazed.
That keeper dribbles from one side of the pitch and scores free kicks! He should be #1!
He can make goals from one goal to an other.
He should be number one

He IS a legend, he IS the best goalkeeper, he STOPPED almost all the shoots from any angle, from any shooter, he could go out and in and stop every shoot, he could stop it without the hands, HE IS THE BEST, HE IS A LEGEND

Better than half the top ten, is this voted by kids?!

Pat Jennings, the fact that he is adored by spurs and arsenal fans tells you everyth8ng you need to know. Northern Ireland's last line of defense on umpteen times. There are none better
Best goal keeper by far. European footballer of the year 1973. Examplary on and off the field

Great versatile goalkeeper known mostly to AFC and after his resilience in the qualifiers. Definitely best goalkeeper in Asia.
Career[edit]
After playing for a couple of years in Al-Yarmouk, he was chosen to be the goalkeeper on the Jordanian national team. After his outstanding and incredible performances in both the 2004 and 2011 AFC Asian Cup tournaments, he was offered to take proficiency in Europe, but the JFA did not allow him to.

Reina is the second best Spanish Goalkeeper and there isn't much difference between him and Casillas. If you are a Liverpool fan then only you would know the kind of saves he pulled off in some matches.
Reina is a great goalkeeper. Well he is only number 3 in the Spanish nationality team but he does hi s job very very well at LIVERPOOL and is every time there when he is needing.
To me best keeper in the prem, when he would leave liverpool, and I know that there are many TOP goal keepers around and when I say that, I mean Very good keepers like neure and lloris but when he leaves how can I put this... One of a kind goalkeeper without doubt he deserves to be in the top ten =)
In my opinion, Reina is one of the best goalkeeper. he has a really good reflect and he can lead defender coordination with very good. GO REINA!
