For several years now, David De Gea has been the Premier League's best goalkeeper, with his only real competition being Thibaut Courtois and Hugo Lloris. That changed last season when Manchester City purchased Brazilian stopper, Ederson. According to EA Sports however, he isn't even close to their level.

Beyond his inhuman goal kicks, Ederson made 58 saves, including two penalties, and kept 16 clean sheets for Manchester City in the 2017/18 season. He was a large part of City's unprecedented, record-breaking season, and established himself as the only true competitor to De Gea.

Ederson is in the top two or three in the world right now, yet his 86 rating puts him well below De Gea, Neuer, Courtois, and even Navas. Even his potential of 89 puts him below De Gea's starting rating, which is just ludicrous.
