Best goalkeeper in La Liga?

Atletico Madrid are never short of great goalkeepers and Oblak is their most recent addition. Oblak is like a wall in front of the goal and is one of, if not the only reason for Atlético Madrid's great defensive form in recent years. He has been awarded with Ricardo Zamora trophy for the last 2 consecutive seasons and will be expecting to win a third soon.

The Slovenian has kept 18 clean sheets in 28 games in La Liga. He has conceded 12 goals this season, and made 94 saves in all competitions this season. He has also saved 2 penalties in La Liga this season.

Los Rojiblancos's goalkeeper is usually able to neutralize the threat of most opponent strikers and his ability to make himself big on during 1-on-1s sets him apart from the other keepers.

Oblak has helped Atletico Madrid reach the 2 spot in La Liga and will be a key prospect in helping them challenge Barcelona for the top spot.
