#3 Fernando Pacheco - Deportivo Alaves
The Spaniard joined Alaves in 2015 from Real Madrid C-team after several impressive displays. Soon after joining Alaves, he became a regular starter. Currently, it is impossible to drop him to the bench. He has improved a lot this season and has played most of the games for his team.
His statistics are not great but his performances are far better than the numbers. He is above Valencia keeper Neto in this list because of his improvements. He has been an important part of a below-average team, who finished 14th last season. His form has been crucial in Alaves currently being in the fifth spot in the league table, just 2 points adrift of the top 4.
He has saved 77.4% of the shots and also kept his 8 clean sheets so far this season. One of his major strengths is his long passing.
