Manuel Neuer (Bayern Munich).<\/p>\n<!-- Shortcode [paddy-power-welcome-offer] does not exist -->\n<p>Courtois was heavily influential as Real Madrid beat Liverpool in the Champions League final back in May. The Belgian produced several key saves as <em>Los Blancos<\/em> kept a lid on Liverpool, winning the Man of the Match award in the process.<\/p>\n<p>Ederson, meanwhile, has been a beacon of consistency in goal for Manchester City since signing in 2017. The Brazilian gloveman has won three Premier League Golden Gloves and continues to be a defensive fulcrum for Pep Guardiola.<\/p>\n<p>Jan Oblak has proven himself as one of the most skilful and dextrous shot-stoppers in world football. He won La Liga&#8217;s &#8216;Player of the Season&#8217; award during the club&#8217;s title-winning campaign in 2020\/21, which underlined his importance to Diego Simeone&#8217;s side.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\r\n<h2><strong>Bet \u00a310 &amp; Get \u00a330 in Free Bets with Bet365<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<p>Not signed up to bet365 yet?

Despite Neuer being Germany&#8217;s No 1, Casillas selected Ter Stegen ahead of the Bayern captain, which is likely to cause a few double takes from scrolling fans on social media.<\/p>\n<p>At 36, Neuer continues to be a gargantuan presence in goal for both Bayern Munich and the national team. Ter Stegen, though, has started the season in good form. Barca have conceded just once, while their German &#8216;keeper has prevented 2.6 goals, the third-highest in La Liga.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/news\/\"><strong>Latest football news<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Football betting tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best betting sites<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/best-free-bet-offers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best free bet offers<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/accumulator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Football accumulator tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iker Casillas has named his top five goalkeepers in world football at the minute, and there&#8217;s no room for Alisson.
