#3 Edouard Mendy (Chelsea)
Chelsea had a year to remember last term. After taking over from Frank Lampard in January, Thomas Tuchel led his team to a thumping UEFA Champions League victory. Among Tuchel's best players, Edouard Mendy has to be the top performer.
The Senegalese keeper was on top of his game throughout last season and he has kept his standards up this year too. Mendy bagged the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Super Cup and second-place in the FA Cup in his debut season at Stamford Bridge.
His heroics earned him a spot in the UEFA Champions League Team of the Year and the Goalkeeper of the Season award. Chelsea are among the top-runners in the Premier League this term and are doing their best to pressurize rivals Liverpool and Manchester City.
A massive chunk of hope lies upon Edouard Mendy to help his team get through the finish line successfully.
#2 Alisson Becker (Liverpool)
Ever since Alisson Becker arrived in England from from Roma in Italy, he has barely kept a foot wrong. He has lived up to the reputation of being the most expensive goalkeeper of all time.
Alisson was a crucial element of Liverpool's transition under Jurgen Klopp. The same saw the Reds lift the Premier League and UEFA Champions League trophies in consecutive years.
Even though Liverpool finished third in the Premier League race last term, Alisson did his part. The Brazilian conceded just 32 goals off 33 games. He even scored a crucial goal (versus West Brom in the dying seconds) that kept Liverpool's title hopes alive during the season.
Liverpool are breathing down league leaders Manchester City's neck at the moment. And once again, Alisson is proving to be the best for his side. The former Roma man has conceded only 15 goals off 17 games. He also has nine clean sheets.
#1 Ederson Moraes (Manchester City)
No other active goalkeeper has won more Premier League Golden Gloves than Ederson (2). The Manchester City goalkeeper has set a standard that not everyone can achieve.
Ederson helped Manchester City seal the Premier League title last year in comprehensive fashion. He has also played a crucial part in helping Manchester City secure a top berth before the end of the year.
The Brazilian shot-stopper ended the 2020-21 season by conceding the least number of goals (28). He continues the feat at present as well. Ederson Moraes has conceded just 12 off 18 games so far this season. For his continued efforts, Ederson is undoubtedly the best PL goalkeeper of 2021.
