There is only so much a keeper can do so much. I don't think any keeper should be that high like Neuer. He gets burned a lot on his high risk sweeper keeper technique.

As a fan of Lloris, I think any criticism of him giving up so many goals to top teams is unfounded. Many of those games last year were 10 men or a lot of penalties and as Baphomet pointed out, there were a couple he could have avoided but overall it could have been a lot worse with another keeper. It's not his fault the whole team folded up in front of him on many occasions.

That said the bottom of the list is pretty terrible.

i wonder as what lahm is ranked, if he is ranked as a CDM surly way to high, if he is ranked as RB its to high still, but its ok top 20 player for sure at least. Kroos should be higher, for me he should be in the Ballon d'Or conversation and not **** Neuer (who defines overrated new, i mean 3rd best player in the world????). I just dont see it with Neymar, i dont see many Barca games, but Hazard is better imo. Maybe swap Bale with Agüreo and Ibra should be in the top 10. I dont want to be homer, but Alexis should be infront of couple of players and at least in the top 20, we are a one player team every second game. Sad to see Schweinsteiger drop but is fair. I like the ranking of Turan, could maybe even be little higher, when he is on there is nothing which seperates him from top class wingers (but i guess worst national team ever makes the case for this ranking). Wilshere and Rambo got some love, lucky to be there. If other arsenal players other then Sanchez deserve to be in the top 100 it should be Kos and Giroud.
I like the rating of isco, because for me people overrate him to often.
Enyeama>Lloris, just because its more fun to watch him^^ But at this level hard to seperate good GK.

Is Neuer even better than De Gea?

Uh, yes.

The recent overrating of De Gea is becoming incredible. Neuer's been doing what De Gea is doing now for years.
