Top 100 American Goalkeepers - August 2015

After a quiet summer, here's a top 100 with bonus content to make up for the time lost. First, there are four newcomers to the elite class. 

Matt Perrella (88)
Kevin Corby (92)
Robby Gogatz (93)
Dom DiMaggio (98)

Rafael Diaz returns after a two year absence. The first top one hundred, actually. On the up-and-up, Tim Melia has jumped to the ten slot due to stellar play with Sporting Kansas City. If SKC doesn't want to hold onto the emerging veteran, he will most definitely have his options next year, both in and outside of MLS. Patrick McLain also sees a jump after putting himself into a position to win the USL Goalkeeper of the Year Award with Sacramento.

Clint Irwin, Jeff Attinella, Quentin Westberg, and Joe Bendik all slip down the list. Each of the four have struggled to find consistency this season, some doing so with more playing time than others. The most frustrating of the four is Joe Bendik's performance, who I had ranked at number seven coming into the year. He's slower and less sure of himself than a year ago so hopefully he can regain some confidence in Toronto.

Bonus part number one: I categorized each goalkeeper by their college to find out which conference has produced the most goalkeepers. If there was a transfer, I went with the last attended college. Of course not every goalkeeper went to college (12 of the 100 did not) and some are from DII and DIII schools, but that still leaves us with 79 goalkeepers.

Conference Breakdown

None - 12
Division II - 8
Division III - 1

Conference USA - 8
Pac-12 - 8
ACC - 7
Big Ten - 7
Big East - 6
Colonial - 6
AAC - 5
Atlantic 10 - 4
Big West - 4
Horizon - 4
Missouri Valley - 4
Mid-American - 3
West Coast - 3
Big South - 2
Metro Atlantic - 2
Northeast - 2
Western Athletic - 2
Souther - 1
Summit - 1

If you want to check my work you can see it here, along with past rankings, glove choice, and favorite animal for each goalkeeper. Make sure to click the tab at the top "School".

Lastly, here's the top 50 goalkeepers under 24 years old that are not currently on the top 100 list. Think of this as a prospect list of goalkeepers that will most surely be on the top 100 at some point but aren't quite there. The ranking takes into account for potential as well as current ability, unlike the top 100 which is only current ability.

For the first ten, the additional number is a rough guess of how many months it will be until they're on the top 100. I only did it for the top ten as the following goalkeepers won't be there for a year or two. I thought about doing a specific post for this but it's fairly similar to the college preseason rankings so consider this as a reward for those of you who scrolled this far.

Top 100 American Goalkeepers - June 2015

cover photo from Seattle Sports

Barely made it for June! Whew. There's been some significant movement in the top 100 from two months ago so let's discuss the major changes.

Brad Friedel is officially out and Stefan Frei has taken over the number three slot. Of course this begs the question, "Why doesn't he get called up to the USMNT?" Only Jurgen Klinsmann can truly answer that but the most likely answer is that Frei doesn't have any upside; he's essentially in the peak of his career, unlike Bill Hamid or other USYNT products. Frei doesn't have the glamour and Klinsmann, it would appear, thinks that certain younger goalkeepers will eventually pass Frei in talent. This goes back to the debate of "How much does the national team develop a player?" Which I would argue very little. It makes less sense to call in a developing player, regardless of his ceiling, if he isn't the best option at the moment instead of just simply calling in the top players regardless of age. Perhaps Frei can earn a Camp Cupcake call up but even that seems unlikely. Still, he's number one with us (after Guzan and Howard, of course).

Then of course there's Steve Clark at number four, who I would have expected to take the number three slot if you asked me a year or even six months ago. Clark's Achilles heel is his consistency. We'll see great saves one moment then a facepalm the next. If he can cut out the problems, he'd make a run at MLS Goalkeeper of the Year, however if he can't we'll could be seeing him farther down the list.

Andrew Dykstra (+39), Chris Konopka (+38), and Brian Sylvestre (+41) all jumped up the list for their recent performances, Dykstra most notably of the three, landing at number nine. While Dykstra had a hell of an outing in Champions League early this year, he's rebounded with outstanding performances while filling in for Bill Hamid's absence. Which is the real Dykstra? Time will tell.

Joe Bendik continues to tumble down the list. It's a real shame considering he has all the tools to be a starter in MLS but can't seem to put it together. His 1v1 approach is all over the place and he seems to be a step behind too often. Still young, Bendik could rebound but I'm doubtful he'll ever get to his number six spot again.

Lower division goalkeepers that are really shining are Sacramento's Patrick McLain and New York Cosmos' Jimmy Maurer. McLain is looking to rejoin MLS but I could see Maurer staying with the NASL for the rest of his career if the money is right.

Daryl Sattler returns to the list for the first time since July 2013 and Jeremy Crumpton is back in the top 100 as well, last being seen here in March 2014. As for newcomers, there are quite a few! There's a link or highlight vid for each goalkeeper just so you can hold your own around the water cooler next Monday.

Charlie Lyon
Darius Motazed
Kris Devaux
Sebastian Evers
Tony Halterman
Trey Mitchell

That's not all the big moves but those are most of them. You can check the history of the top 100 here to see the movement of each goalkeeper over time, including which goalkeepers use what brand of gloves, if you're into that sort of thing.

Top 100 American Goalkeepers (October 2014)

Before we get into our spotlight please circle October 2014 in your calendar as the time Brad Guzan officially overthrew Tim Howard as the number one goalkeeper for the US. There has been a small contingent that have already bumped Guzan to the top spot but you can't lose the starting spot off a couple of errors. Up and through the summer Howard had some shaky moments but he was still earning his keep. However in the seventeen goals over seven games against EPL opponents, Howard is starting to show signs of regression. He's relying more on reactions and paying less attention to mechanics. Phil Neville dogged him for his large spring which is close to addressing the problem but not quite. (For the record, Howard can't see the ball before it clears the wall so the time lost argument is invalid. Him "bouncing" isn't necessarily a bad thing, and not in this case.) Howard's stance has grown even wider since the summer, making lateral movement is occur less and less, if at all. On goal against Liverpool, his hands are weak and the ball rolls of his hand into the goal. Against Crystal Palace where Everton lost 3-2 (highlights here but link may not last long) he needlessly causes a penalty kick and later hands Crystal Palace their second goal by missing the cross entirely. The 6-3 loss to Chelsea he looked step behind nearly every goal and Howard gives up a pretty lazy near post goal against Swansea City to open Everton's short lived Capital One Cup run. Howard proponents are going to cite past heroics as to why Howard should remain as number one but the fact is he's 35 and is on the downswing of his career. Guzan, on the other hand, is in his prime. When did the switch between the two happen in skill? Right now. It'll take some time for the public to all agree though.

Bill Hamid is next up for this month's goalkeeper spotlight. He's on the tip of everyone's tongue when it comes to who's next for USMNT goalkeeping. Everyone expects him to be on the 2015 Gold Cup roster if not in goal come 2018. Amid all the hope, Hamid seemingly can't be described as anything else but "athletic" (57,000 results).

There's no getting around Hamid's reflexes and leg strength. It's seems like every week Hamid is in the running for MLS's Save of the Week. He's explosive, he's quick, he makes the occasion "You have to be kidding me!" save. But he's had to work to get to where he is now. Early in his career Hamid was taking generous pre-shot jump sets and he's clearly worked to nix those. He's showing more patience in a play and getting all of his body to dive at the ball, not just his arms. But his decision-making and technique in tight, awkward situations is still erratic. For example, he's still using the starfish approach on 1v1s (see above). This technique leaves large gaps between the thigh and bicep and the ice hockey-familiar five-hole. Sometimes it works, like in his save against Henry...

...and sometimes it doesn't. In the same game he vies to go to the ground, instead staying on his feet, and gives up the game-winning goal. Notice how awkwardly his body collapses to the ground and how his right foot moves out of the way of where the ball ends up going.

Hamid's next step is learning to play the percentages better. He didn't do it against Los Angeles (dove unevenly), Real Salt Lake (hands too low), Houston (dives too high), and Colorado (????). His entire body needs to be in smart positions to cover the goal in the most efficient manner. Hamid's gotten this far and at almost twenty-four, he shows no signs of slowing down.

The top five have switched around more than just Guzan overstepping Howard. Steve Clark takes the number three spot and Brad Friedel falls from the top three since... 1993? Clark's been on fire with Columbus and despite the lack of USMNT call-ups, he's the best in MLS right now.

Lastly, a retroactive shoutout to Israeli American goalkeeper Tom Almadon. Almadon kept a shutout in the second leg in the second qualifying round of the Europa with his club Bnei Yehuda Tel Aviv. Almadon was born in New York and although he has played up the ranks in Israel's youth system, he has yet to recieve a call up from Israel. So for that, we'll claim him until he's official cap-tied.
