A goalkeeper that doesn't dive... Unbelievable!

By ilFenomeno97, 18-05-2021

It's easy to blame goalkeepers for gifting easy goals on FIFA 21, but what I have experienced with every version of Neuer is beyond me. The main problem with him is that he has these weird animations were he tries to save the ball without diving (he stands still trying to emulate that save he did against CR7). Now I appreaciate that EA has put that into the game, but when he does that every single time instead of diving to save a ball ball that goes less than a meter away from him is frustrating to say the least. Not to mention when balls go beneath him when the rival has the ball near it's feet and go past you.

Bottom line is he is not good at saving low and medium height shots, for the price he is, pretty underwhelming. EA should realize that while it's nice that they did an homage to that save, that animation just makes him unusable when he is giving away goals your average goalkeeper should save. Unfortunately he is the only "good" goalkeeper from the Bundesliga so if you are going for a Bundesliga team like myself you pretty much have no much options available (besides HL Hradecky maybe)

Get him ASAP! Neuer is TOP TIER

NEUER IS A BEAST KEEPER! This guy is actually insane. On Glove chemistry style, he saves almost everything. I only had to worry about him when my defenders were out of position and even then he would save. If you can afford him now, get him asap. He can link with Niakhiate and Hernandez and you can build a decent french team around that. Considering he's won so many awards in real life, this guy continues to boss the goal a...

The German Wall

Usually, goalkeepers are not getting many reviews, even though everyone has a strong opinion on them; I thought to give the experiences I made with GKs to the Futbin-community in order to avoid expenses mistakes. I play a Bundesliga-team and therefore it was a no-brainer for me to buy Neuer-FIF after his release for cheap 110k back in the days. I totally played over 100 games with him since then and think I found my ...
