Hello football fans, in recent years the world football has changed. Along with many offensive plans to take down the opponent, the teams also attach great importance to defense.
That means more excellent defenders and goalkeepers. In the teams, the talented and personal goalkeepers play a very important part in their success and victory. And today, let us take a look at the top 10 best goalkeepers to date.
#10. Samir Handanovic (18/07/1984)
At number 10 is goalkeeper Samir Handanovic. Inter's key player has become a lot more reliable, while his teammates are not so.
At the age of 34, he seems to have shown better abilities every single season. The Slovenian goalkeeper is proof of the sentence: "Everyone will be different".
According to Luciano Spalletti, Inter's patience-building style has caused Handanovic to adjust his style accordingly. He had spent his career in the shadow of Paper, though he was quite happy and not fussing. He always showed his quietness and dedication to the team that helped him attract a lot of fans in Italy.

#9. Hugo Lloris (26/12/1986)
9th place belongs to goalkeeper Hugo Lloris. The French goalkeeper's ability to save has proved he is one of the best players in the Premier League. His two saves against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu in 2017-2018 are typical examples.
A shot that denied a shot from your team and then an acrobatic shot blocked Cristiano Ronaldo's shot. Lloris had moments when he was famous. He proved his ability with a dangerous catch in the World Cup final against Croatia.
Lloris has good reflexes and catches the ball well, but he is still low in the goalkeeper's evaluation because of mistakes that the home team conceded. Typically, the clumsy situation for Mandzukic to take advantage of goals in the World Cup final.
Instead of simply rescuing, in a kick upwards, the French goalkeeper used the foot to put the ball into the right range of the striker. Without much effort, Mandzukic also brought the ball into the net and shortened the score for Croatia.
9th place belongs to the French goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.
#8. Manuel Neuer (27/03/1986)
Next up at number 8, Neuer deserves to be at the top of this list. He has almost won every title of his career, except for the Euro Championship.
Over the years, the German goalkeeper born in 1986 has been considered the number 1 goalkeeper in the world. He showed his ability to block is not inferior to Buffon. He even showed his ability to play with his feet.
He handled the ball very well when the striker was close to the yard. But, in the 2018 World Cup, he was unable to play because of an ankle fracture.
Former German goalkeeper Elivocan has warned him of playing for the team in 2018: "It is impossible and cannot imagine that he will have a good performance."
And he was right, Germany was eliminated from the group stage, losing 2-0 to Neuer's Korea. In the injury time, Neuer dropped the goal to join the attack and refused to back down even if the home team lost the right to ball control.
Neuer has been voted as the top 10 best goalkeepers. However, a serious injury prevented him from playing for most of the season. He only started out playing 4 matches so his performance was a bit worse. Hopefully, he will return soon and regain his original form.
Next, Neuer deserves to be at number 8.
#7. Ederson Moraes (17/08/1993)
In the top 10 will be missing without Ederson. There are too many miracles to remember as impressive as Ederson. Although he was only 25 years old.
2017 was a breakthrough for Brazilian footballers. He moved to Manchester City in the summer of 2017 and became the 2nd most expensive goalkeeper in history. After the 2016-2017 season at Benfica, he had 17 clean sheets and proved to Esport Diola that he was a reliable replacement for Claudio Promo.
Ederson also can use the ball with his feet and launch a good attack when coaches Esport Diola and Man City require good foot and coordinate with teammates like other players. Therefore, this is a very good advantage of the Brazilian goalkeeper. With such remarkable achievements at such a young age. The Brazilian goalkeeper promises to do more for his team.
In the top 10 will be missing without Ederson Moraes.
#6. Gianluigi Buffon (28/01/1978)
Next is Buffon, Buffon's level has been confirmed for a long time. Over time, he still kept his form. At 40, it's hard to know what to say to Buffon. For 17 years, until the summer of 2018, he was the most expensive goalkeeper in the world of all time.
He joined Juventus for 52 million euros in 2001. In the following years, he became a bargain for this team. Failure at the World Cup against Sweden is an unfair end to the international career of an all-time legend.
Buffon, in an interview with the press, said: “It is disappointing not for me but the development of football. Because we failed at a time that was important to the country”.
He won the best player in Serie in November and his 8th title in May. The most regretful thing for Buffon is to switch to Verizon Zachman too early. He also admitted that if he knew CR7 to Juventus, he would stay to stand side by side with the Portuguese super striker at Juventus.
Next is Gianluigi Buffon, who has been confirmed for a long time.
#5. Alisson Becker (02/10/1992)
5th place goes to the Brazilian player. Alisson Becker has excelled in taking the official position for his national team instead of Ederson.
He also received praise in the 2017-2018 national season for helping Roma reach the Champions League semi-final. After the disastrous season of goalkeepers at Anfield, Helen Brost identified the 25-year-old goalkeeper as his No. 1 choice.
In the summer of 2018, with a transfer of 75 million euros equivalent to 85 million dollars, Alisson Becker became the most expensive goalkeeper in the world. Before the mission at Keyba and Abiafilaza took place, Alison had shown himself worthy of being a reliable deterrent.
With his ability to block, he proved that he could do what Salmon Middles and Riskarios did not help their candidate win the Premier League.
Next on this list is the No. 4 Ter Stegen position.
#4. Marc - Andre Ter Stegen (30/04/1992)
Next on this list is the No. 4 Ter Stegen. Starting his football career, Ter Stegen made some big mistakes.
However, he promptly corrected it. The 2017-2018 season is a season where he shines. He has become one of the best goalkeepers in Europe in Barcelona. The former Brutia Montilabec goalkeeper caught the finish and the penalty was very good.
He became one of Barca's best goalkeepers when they regained the La Liga crown. Andre Ter Stegen is only 26 years old and still has many years of top competition. You can become the best goalkeeper in the world if you keep playing so stable.
Next on this list is the No. 4 Ter Stegen.
#3. Thibaut Courtois (11/05/1992)
Next up is Thibaut Courtois, the biggest compliment that can be given to Courtois is that he not only stood out but also tried hard. It is rare for the Belgian goalkeeper to be embroiled in personal criticism.
Although only 26 years old, he has had a successful career. Three championships in 2 countries have proven that.
Not surprisingly, Torches had to make way for Courtois in the Standsport League after three seasons on loan at Atletico Madrid. Over the next four seasons, he excelled in Chelsea's wooden frame until he moved to Real this summer.
Next is Thibaut Courtois.
#2. David de Gea (07/11/1990)
This is the position that will cause a lot of regret for MU fans. The 1990-born player will be the best goalkeeper in the world and with his performances against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium last season.
Performance with 14 saves. For half a decade at Old Trafford, De Gea was the number one goalkeeper. He always had excellent performances regardless of changes around him at Manchester United.
His 3-season dominance in the player award of the color season at United. He was only broken down in 2016-2017 by Ander Herrera. And then he regained the award in 2017-2018.
He can save extremely well with the push of the ball in extremely high difficulty. He plays solid, stable, almost no mistakes in every match at the club.
The proof is he won the title of best goalkeeper last season. Those at the national level did not succeed when they were eliminated early at the national level 2018. He also made a silly mistake at the second goal in the match against Portugal of CR7.
Next is David De Gea.
#1. Jan Oblak (07/01/1993)
The most surprising is the No. 1 position with a strange name. Football fans are starting to notice the incredible career Oblak has made.
It is an important factor in the defense of Atletico Madrid. The Atletico goalkeeper is more important than ever in Diego Simeone's era.
When the people around him were somewhat in decline, Oblak was still playing more and more quality. The Slovenian goalkeeper is 25 years old. This is the period starting to maturity of a player.
Surely he will make more progress. He can catch the ball well in the 16m50 area and has the necessary stability with a goalkeeper. In the 2015-2016 season, he won the Decade Dimora title for the best goalkeeper with only conceding 18 goals in the season.
With such remarkable achievements, Oblak deserves to be the best goalkeeper in the world today. He will be able to develop his ability even further in his football career.
Overcoming De Gea, Jan Oblak surprised when ranked in the No. 1 position.
