We’ve witnessed some legendary names between the sticks over the past decade. All in their prime, who makes your Top 3 Goalkeepers list?

1. Manuel Neuer

The benchmark of modern goalkeeping. World Cup winner (2014), Champions League winner, and the original sweeper-keeper.

2. Thibaut Courtois

Monster between the posts. Champions League 2022 final performance alone showed why he’s one of the greatest shot-stoppers ever.

3. Alisson Becker

Elite balance of shot-stopping, distribution, and leadership. Crucial for Liverpool’s Champions League and Premier League triumphs.

4. Marc-André ter Stegen

Brilliant reflexes, great passing ability, and consistency at Barcelona.

5. Ederson

Possibly the best distributor of the ball among all goalkeepers. Changed the way City build from the back.

6. David De Gea

In his prime (2015–2018), he was nearly unbeatable, saving Manchester United countless times.

7. Gianluigi Donnarumma

Still young, but his Euro 2020 heroics showed his peak potential.

8. Emiliano Martínez

Clutch performer, especially in penalty shootouts (Copa América & World Cup). Not as consistent overall as the top names.

9. Édouard Mendy

Short but brilliant peak (Champions League 2021 run with Chelsea). Didn’t maintain top form long enough compared to the rest.

Manuel Neuer to me is the best among them. He started what coaches are now calling 'playing from the back'. Peter Cech remains the best ever.

In no particular order...

Neuer Manuel, David DE Gea and indulge me to add Buffon!

The one and only Van Der Save

My second place is Emiliano Martínez

You may be right about Manuel Neuer. But even Peter Cech wouldn't pick himself as the best ever.

Why is Van Dan Sar missing in this list? I think he should be Number 1 followed by maybe Buffon

Neuer,de gea and, matinez. In this order.

was Gianluigi Buffon a joke to you?
Was Peter Schmiechel a joke to you?
Was Edwin van Dersar a joke to you?
Was Dida a joke to you that you'll say Cech is the best ever?

Nuere and Emiliano!

Goal keepers are an important part of a team and that's why they get extra trainings...

How you snuck in Edward Mendy is funny.

My pick will be Manuel Neuer, Courtois, and Alisson. I would have picked my De Gea over Alisson, but that guy flops consistently for Spain

Alisson Becker leads the pack. Add your 2nd and 3rd positions.

You people don't read or is it a comprehension thing?

The poster listed the goalkeepers and attached a photo collage of the keepers but you guys are mentioning Van Der Sar, Buffon and the likes...

Peter Schmeichel ex Manchester United keeper during Ferguson era

In this order

Manual Nuer 1st
Thibaot Courtous 2nd
Gigi Donaruma 3rd

However Gigi Buffon and Peter Cech and Manual Nuer are the three greatest Goal Keppers I have ever watched play right from year 2000

I still can't imagine how a "supposed coach" will prefer Onana to a certain David De Gea.

Many of them don't even understand the thread

My top 3.

1 David De Gea

2 Thibaut Courtois

3. Alisson Becker

Buffon remains the greatest ever. I think neur takes the cake 4 this generation
