The Best Goalkeepers
Premier League goalkeepers are the least utilized players on the field, often being overlooked when building a team. Most players prioritize acquiring forwards first, then strengthen the midfield and defense, leaving the goalkeeping position for last.
However, a good goalkeeper can significantly impact a game, potentially saving numerous goals. They are also often a wise investment due to their relatively affordable prices.
When selecting a goalkeeper, it’s crucial not to rely solely on their overall rating. Two essential attributes to consider are reflexes and diving ability. Reflexes measure a goalkeeper’s agility in making saves, while diving indicates their ability to make saves when jumping.
Experienced Ultimate Team players know that another critical factor influencing a goalkeeper’s performance is their height. Generally, the taller the goalkeeper, the greater their chances of maintaining a clean sheet.

Global Overview (GK)
You will be in good hands with either of the two highest-rated Premier League goalkeepers, but in our opinion, Alisson is the top choice. He is taller and has the highest ratings in the most important attributes: reflexes, diving, and handling.
Ederson is also a solid option, especially if you frequently pass the ball to the goalkeeper. He is unmatched when it comes to play with his feet.
For a more budget-friendly option, consider André Onana or Emiliano Martínez.
