Top 10 Indian goalkeepers of 2016

#3 Subrata Paul (Readers’ Ranking – 2^nd)

Average Score – 8.5

The veteran refound his mojo in the ISL for NorthEast United. Although the statistics may not say so, Subrata was the best goalkeeper in the ISL. It was largely on the back of his saves and his performances that NorthEast were in with a chance of qualifying for the semi-final even on the last day of the league stage.

He did not play a game for India this year, but was always on the bench as a valuable member of the squad. Subrata’s experience will be crucial in the next couple of years for Stephen Constantine as he looks to build a squad for the future.

Rehenesh, Amrinder Singh and Gurpreet Sandhu are still young and they will all look up to Subrata as a role model both on and off the pitch.
