In FC Mobile, having a reliable goalkeeper can make the difference between winning and losing. Some goalkeepers perform far better in-game than their real-life reputation suggests, thanks to their height and stats like Reflexes, Handling, and Positioning.

Other Positions:
In EA Sports FC Mobile 26, the goalkeeper (GK) position plays a crucial role. However, being a famous real-life goalkeeper doesn’t always guarantee strong in-game performance. Some underrated players can actually perform better in FC Mobile depending on the meta.
While scoring goals wins matches, preventing them is just as important. That’s why choosing the right goalkeeper can change the outcome of close games. The current meta still favors taller goalkeepers, as their extended reach helps them block shots near the post and catch crosses inside the box more effectively.
When picking a goalkeeper, key stats such as Reflexes, Diving, Handling, Reactions, and GK Positioning determine how well a goalkeeper performs.
Reflexes measure how quickly they react to shots, while Diving shows their ability to leap and save from distance. Handling affects how cleanly they catch the ball and how often they parry it. Reactions influence how fast they adjust to deflections or rebounds, and GK Positioning determines how well they read the play and close down angles.

Please read the guide on Skills and Skill Points here.

I’m still using Van der sar ( ovr 114 – lvl 30 ) .. it’s an iconic FC mobile GK and all but his overall capabilities are downgrading pretty fast : since 2nd anniversary I would not consider him an elite GK.
Now in footyverse he’s getting even worse. in Attack mode , its pretty much useless , Manager mode suffer a lot .. instead H2H where you control over your CBs and VdS himself it still can do some magic .
Not really sure as it it’s now INFERO VdS can be in the TOP 10. I regret to not take donnarumma whit the exchange or Khan . Let’s see who is/are the next week’s GKs on footyverse.
Is VANJA that good?
he is good but if you just use a low driven shot it is basically automatic lol
I mean I think right now ballon dor donna should be considered a cheap beast gk bro is legit better the some keepers in the best category imo and he is only 95 mil definately cheap beast.
why is 112 donna better than 111 vanja?
I have around 500 shards should I get 111 milinkon savic or save shards for kroose or Allison BTW I use bauhmann 109 rank 3 (112),and in midfield I use 109 hakam rank 4 (113) ineasta 111 rank 4 (115) and 110 Vernon rank 3 (113) what should I do??
