Who is the fastest goalkeeper in FIFA 22?

Best GK in FIFA 22 Career Mode The best goalkeeper in FIFA 22 is Jan Oblak of Athletico Madrid and Slovenia, who has the highest overall rating out of all the goalkeepers in the game.

Manuel Neuer (Bayern Munich, 42.5k)

One of Germany’s greatest ever between the sticks, Manuel Neuer has performed at a high level for much of his playing career. A 90 rated card in this year’s FIFA is his reward for being so consistent. He possesses 88+ attributes in every important area for a goalkeeper, which makes him an excellent all-round choice.

Alisson (Liverpool, 35k)

Liverpool’s No. 1 has, unfortunately, not been given 90 heading accuracy after his winning goal against West Brom last season. Luckily, his goalkeeping attributes are accurate with his performances. His 89 reflexes and 90 positioning put him just above Manuel Neuer.

Keylor Navas (PSG, 26k)

Diving is one of the strongest attributes for Costa Rica’s star goalkeeper. Rated at 89, he’ll stretch his 6’1″ frame to its limits to reach top corner-bound shots. Strong reflexes and positioning also contribute to Keylor Navas being incredibly difficult to score against. At 26k, he’s the cheapest of the 88+ overall keepers.

Edouard Mendy (Chelsea, 1.1k)

Chelsea’s Edouard Mendy is the best option for goalkeepers in FIFA 22 starter Premier League squads. For just 1.1k coins, you get a player with 84 reflexes and 83 diving. These attributes seem higher in gameplay as, from experience, Mendy has pulled off many world class saves.

Jan Oblak (Atletico Madrid, 53.5k)

The best non-Icon option has stood tall at 91 overall for a few years now. It’s for good reason, as the Atletico Madrid No. 13 has been consistently brilliant for his club. He has three attributes at 90+ in the form of 92 diving, 90 reflexes and 90 positioning.

Ederson (Manchester City, 35k)

The national teammate of Alisson shares similarities with Neuer, primarily that he’s also a ‘sweeper-keeper’. Ederson’s 93 kicking is the best in the game and reflects his incredible creative contributions in real-life for Manchester City. 70 vision and 66 long passing is higher than a fair few midfielders.

Lev Yashin (Icons, 580k)

The legendary Russian shot-stopper is, of course, the most expensive entry on this list because of his Icon status. His mid Icon card, rated 91 overall, possesses eye-watering attributes such as 93 reflexes, 93 diving and 92 positioning. Lev Yashin has some other great ratings for a goalkeeper, too.

Best FIFA 22 goalkeepers

Goalkeepers are one of the most important positions in the game. I remember having Nick Pope in goal and him saving shots that went top and bottom corner all the time. But what keepers are the best in the game?

1. Jan Oblak

Oblak is the highest-rated goalkeeper on FIFA. He is going to be 91 rated again on FIFA 22. He plays for Atletico Madrid and is from Slovenia. He’s an amazing goalkeeper on the game and in real life. Many people use him if they have a La Liga squad or a hybrid.

9. Alisson

Alisson is the second highest-rated keeper on the game at 90 rated. He plays for Liverpool FC and is from Brazil. He’s one of the best keepers to use if you have a Premier league squad or a team with Brazilian centre backs.

8. Ter Stegen

Ter Stegen is the third highest-rated goalkeeper on the game at 90 rated. He plays for Barcelona FC and is from Germany. If you have a La Liga squad or a squad with German centre backs, then he’s a great keeper to use.

7. Neuer

Manuel Neuer is the fourth highest-rated goalkeeper on the game at 89 rated. He plays for Bayern Munich and is also from Germany. He’s a great keeper to use if you have a Bundesliga squad or a squad with German centre backs. Stats:

6. Courtios

Thibaut Courtois is the fifth highest-rated keeper on FIFA at 89 rated. He plays for Real Madrid and is from Belgium. He’s another keeper that plays in La Liga and would link to any centre backs in that league as well as any Belgium defenders.

5. Ederson

Ederson is the sixth highest-rated keeper on the game at 88 rated. He plays for Manchester City and is from Brazil. He’s the second keeper on this list to play in the Premier league and link to defenders from Brazil.

5. Thibaut Courtois – 89 OVR

Courtois stands out with his enormous height, which is crucial for goalkeepers in FIFA. Was Navas ever meta? No, and he won't ever be. Massive Courtois has way better chances for that.

4. Ederson – 89 OVR

Strong goalkeeper! Treat yourself and get him, it will be worth it. It's much more fun when you concede fewer goals. Many people forget that it really pays off to spend a lot of money on a good goalkeeper. (Editor: ...isn't that... the point... of spending money... in FIFA?)

3. Marc-André ter Stegen – 90 OVR

Do you remember FIFA 20? That was when ter Stegen was the best goalkeeper in the game. He is still outstanding now, though.

2. Manuel Neuer – 90 OVR

Good old Neuer actually got an upgrade in FIFA 22. Of course, he's worth it, no matter what mode. Neuer is simply extremely strong, in FIFA, he always convinced as a solid number 1.

1. Jan Oblak – 91 OVR

The untouchable number 1 in FIFA. He was also the strongest goalkeeper last year. Does he appeal to you for Ultimate Team? Linking could be difficult, he hasn't turned out to be an absolute meta in the last years...

All FIFA 22 goalkeeper controls

Below, we’ve listed all of the goalkeeper controls on PlayStation and Xbox.

How to control and move the keeper in FIFA 22

To manually control your goalkeeper when your opponent has the ball and is closing in on goal, switch on to them (Touchpad/View), and move towards the ball carrier slightly (L + Direction). You’ll need to be aware that you could get chipped, so position yourself marginally towards the near or far post just as the opponent looks set to shoot.

How to save and dive for penalties in FIFA 22

To save and dive for penalties in FIFA 22, you need to flick the right stick (R) in the direction that you want to dive. You can move the goalkeeper side to side using the left stick (L).

1. Positioning

Positioning the keeper, both in open play and penalties, is absolutely crucial. In open play, if the ball is positioned wider than where the goalpost is, you should position yourself at the post nearest to the ball.

2. Closing down attackers

In open gameplay, when in control of the entire team, if you hold Triangle/Y, the goalkeeper will run towards the opponent’s ball carrier. This is a great function to use because it reduces the opponent’s angle when shooting, often making lateral saves much easier and goalscoring much more difficult.

3. Timing your save

The best timing for saving shots, either for penalties or in open play, is to dive (R + direction) just before the opponent is about to shoot. During penalty shoot-outs, this is the optimum time to dive as it will give you an animation that covers the most amount of distance and makes scoring the penalty very difficult.

What are the best goalkeeper traits in FIFA 22?

Saves with Feet is considered the best keeper trait in FIFA 22 due to the special range of save animations that it gives the goalkeepers. Especially against low and driven shots, this trait is very useful as it reduces the scoring chances of opponents when, against keepers without the trait, they’d ordinarily score.
