FIFA 17 Ultimate Team: Predicting The Team Of The Year

11. GK: Manuel Neuer

While there's certainly a case to be made for the selection of Italian legend Gianluigi Buffon or even Manchester United's David De Gea, Manuel Neuer still stands above the rest as the best goalkeeper in the world.

As has been the case in the past with Team of the Year selection, reputation can go a long way to helping a player secure a spot in the team which will certainly help Neuer's chances. In 2016 alone, Neuer won the Bundesliga as part of Bayern Munich and was crowned the IFFHS World's Best Goalkeeper. Expect UEFA Team of the Year to be added to the list of accolades.

As in the last 3 years of Ultimate Team, Neuer's Team of the Year card will be incredible. Boasting high 90's in every stat except "Speed", and standing at 6'3", Neuer's TOTY will be the best goalkeeper available this year bar none.

A healthy link to defensive rocks Jerome Boateng and Mats Hummels will make him easy to fit into any squad you'd like. The only set back? He'll most likely cost you over one million coins for a very, very long time.
