Manchester United v Burnley - Premier League
Heaton doing what he does best

It took a long time for the Burnley man to get his due but when he did, he became a regular international and became recognised as one of the best in the league. Heaton began his career at Manchester United where he made no first-team appearances. He moved around on loan to many clubs before signing with Cardiff City.

After another short spell at Bristol City whom he joined in 2012, Heaton settled in Burnley for the last five seasons making 169 appearances. He is known for his quick reflexes in one on one situations and has particularly excelled in pressure situations.

Heaton comes into the top 5 ahead of Petr Cech, who has declined ever so slightly in the recent years. In the tough environment of the Premier League, the smallest of margins is all it takes to lose your spot.
