84 - SIF
He is hands down the best keeper in the game for me, only comparable to TOGS Donnarumma who is 10x the price. I play elite rivals 1900 skill level and he never lets me down, he feels taller than he actually is (6"4) which seems odd but someone like Emi Martinez feels shorter (6"6). His positioning is top tier for long shots, only rarely do they go in and they are pretty much unstoppable with curve of the shot. Kicking and throwing is average but not bad. Lastly I have never had him do the 'give up' animation where he just falls over and lets the ball go in which I find is such a frustrating trait in most goalkeepers.

I went through bunch of keepers, and at last I stopped my search for a consistent GK. If you are struggling that your GK with consistent saves then 84 Lafont is the answer. I like how he sprints towards the attacking player and gets in the spot where its tough for a finish.
Saves almost everything

Glitch goals still exists.
He is the most regular goalkeeper I have tried, I loved the first games, but with the new patch he has gotten much worse.
He is also not the worst goalkeeper in the game despite getting worse, he is still top what happens is that, his strength, close shots are nerfed

Where do I start... After using Lafont for 30 games I was sure that this guy is a very good keeper, I mean at mid distance and close range he is quite consistent and can provide some amazing saves, but then those 3 games happened in WL where my opponets were just shooting long range finesses and this is just ridiculous. Maybe it's because of the positioning or the animations of Lafont but he just couldn't save ANY of them. I conceded 3 goals 1 after another from Benzema, but the biggest shock was Tiernie's right foot finess. Overall I would recommend this guy only if you miss September vibes before the patch(you will be the victim)
- Mid range saves
- Close range saves
- Consistent on corners
- Every long shot is a goal
