Signed from: Borussia Mönchengladbach

Games played: 137

It had to be Ter Stegen at the number 1 spot on this list. He was Andoni Zubizarreta’s (Director of Football at Barcelona) choice as the goalkeeper for the first team, and wasn't the former Barca 'Dream Team' goalkeeper right about the young German from Borussia Mönchengladbach?

Ter Stegen was initially given the responsibility of guarding the sticks in the cup competitions only, while Bravo was the league goalkeeper.

As the first choice for the cup competitions, he won the Copa del Rey thrice in as many years and won the Champions League in his first outing, completing the famous second treble.

He has now become the club’s first choice in between the sticks, where he now shows not only his unbelievable ability with the ball at his feet but also some jaw-dropping reflexes while saving shots.

In possession, he dribbles the ball and precisely picks out the right pass making his distribution of the ball better than most creative midfielders. He has the opportunity to be the first choice keeper at the World Cup for his national side only if Manuel Neuer is not able to compete on the same wavelength after a long injury layoff.

While at Barca, Ter Stegen has kept 59 clean sheets in 137 appearances.
