Take a look at the projections for the 2018 World Cup or look at how goalkeepers have moved over the past year and a half.
Newcomers on the top 100 include
- Will Dieterich (58th) is a goalkeeper in Iceland's second division, 1.division. Highlights here of Dieterich's most recent season. Dieterich wrote in September about his season.
- Zac Lubin (68th) returns to the list for the first time since March of last year.
- Markus Dickerson (92nd) is in the top 100 for the first time. Neither Dieterich, Lubin, or Dickerson went to a D1 school so I'm sure they're quite comfortable with overcoming adversity.
- Oliver Blum, Brian Sylvestre, Matt Glaeser, and Jeremy Vuolo fill out the bottom four (96-100th). Glaeser and Vuolo are at the end of their careers while Blum, playing in Germany, and Sylvestre, recently signed with Carolina Railhawks, are just getting started.
The top 100 says goodbye to four retiring goalkeepers: Andy Gruenebaum, Jordan Jennings, Sean Kelley, and Brock Duckworth.
