Player Review

90 - LaLiga POTM SBC

5.0

One does not simply get past Thibaut Courtois

By halarealmadrid, 18-04-2020

Because of his size, he gets his hands on most crosses and longshots and he is very hard to overplay. Rather than that, everything else is as good as you would expect from any high rated goalie. He is not the best (but still very good) in 1 vs 1 situations and in terms of reactions (compared to MATS and Oblak, who i both used before him quite some time), but his size and composure make up for that.

Ratings of goalies are highly subjective at FIFA 20, but for me, he has the edge over Ter Stegen and Oblak. They both had their problems to deal with crosses and were bad at throwballs and goalkicks. Other than that, the three are more or less equally good overall.

I always put full confidence in him that he does never let me down. And, what should I say, he never lets me down.

nearly unbeatable from distance
saves and catches (!) a lot of low driven crosses because of his size
clears most aerial crosses
his reactions are not elite, but his size makes up for that
very good against low driven shots (rather because of height than because of reactions)
throwballs and goalkicks
very cheap

there are better keepers at 1 vs 1
no longer available

Thibaut Courtois

Courtois POTM

Der Beste Torhüter den ich bis jetzt gepielt hab (Preis bis 150k). Besonders stark bei Schüssen aus ca. 11 Metern. Bei Fernschüssen reicht es dank seiner Größe ihn nur ein bisschen zu verschieben und nichts geht rein. Definitiv die Coins wert. Dazu noch der strong link zu Varane, Ramos und Militao. Am Anfang hat er zwar nichts gehalten aber nach ein paar Spielen war er echt stark.

Thibaut Courtois

Best Sweaty Goal Saver

I am a fan of Chelsea...So here I am saying his good at this game....says a lot.Looking at all the reviews so far saying that he is the worst keeper I have ever seen really made me think that maybe goalkeeper is all about luck or maybe...your not good at the game. He is insane. He saved so many crosses into a volley, passes into the box shots in my weekend league that I could literally be 5-0 down w...

Courtois Review

Courtois is alright. He makes easy saves due to his 6' 6" frame, but is slow to react and gets beaten often to the corners. I tried De Gea and after 10 games preferred him. Played many games against La Liga teams, and absolutely hate Masip. Masip makes saves that Courtois could only dream of saving, liked Courtois last year, but terrible this year
