Any reasons why Neuer was the best GK this season?

Because he saved Bayern's entire season. Without him they'd have lost to us by 8.

true that, other than that, it's hard to differentiate GKs this season, sometimes you have someone dominating, this season not really.

But i feel like people name Buffon more out of legacy than anything else. Courtois dominated in England, neuer in germany, in Italy i dont know, in spain playing field is level. In CL no one was far superior, but few had performances like Neuer vs this historical Madrid. he saved Carlo from getting sacked imo

seen tons of talk that Neuer wasn't even top 2 in Bundesliga this year from Bundesliga fans online.

I haven't seen much of Neuer tbh. Just like the non-Madrid fans who picked Ramos haven't seen Madrid.

Picked him because of 2 games.

Agree with M99 line up except for few places. Marcelo, Ronaldo, Kroos and Carvajal were most important players for madrid this season.

Modric doesn't deserve the place as he had a average season which he suddenly turned around when the big games came. If you are judging by big games sure, MOTM against Atletico in both legs and now in finals but otherwise he had a average season.

I would also put Mbappe instead of Kane.

Messi choked away a 4-1 balon d'or lead. Incredible.

Whoscored rank him as the 14th (edit: 8th if we look at starters only) best goalkeeper in the Bundesliga hmm

TBF he always got hate from fans online imo. But it could be well justified this season. Haven't watched enough to tell.

Who do you have as best GK this season Was a toss up between Neuer and Buffon for me. Neuer was immense on the first leg against Madrid, I honestly can't remember Buffon giving an individual performance like that at any point during the season.

I say Neuer hmm

For example even Sczezsny was better than Buffon this year imo

No one can really give a good opinion on most of these, including myself. Doubt most people have watched more than max 10 games from the other teams.

I was at an event yesterday with experts from tv and such and asked that pleb Higuain could possible do anything against Real Madrid's defense.

They said he'd dominate because he's gotten much better since joining Juve. I laughed.

@freeza... I'm giving Ramos props for his clutch goals mostly and he was mostly good defensively until the last 7 weeks where he went back to Ramos. "Best Defender" is not really the right wording. "Most Impactful Defender" is a better one.

Agree on that actually. Sczezsny was immense for Roma this season.
