#3 Jérôme Boateng (Reader's rank: 3 | Sportskeeda's rank: 3)
Bayern Munich have been dominating Germany for a few years now, and Jerome Boateng has been the centre point of this. While most pundits and journalists credit players like Lewandowski, Lahm, Neuer and Robben for the Bavarians' success, Boateng has been quietly playing at a level of his own.
Our readers also agree with this and thus 8% voted for him and made him the 3rd highest in our poll. Because Bayern Munich dominates the Bundesliga all the time, not many pay attention to their defender's contributions and when every they do, the limelight is all stolen by Neuer.
Luckily, our readers did not let his performances slip by and voted for him in large numbers. We at Sportskeeda also made sure that we appreciated his performances. EA Sports also did the same and made him the highest rated player in FIFA 17.
