FANS have been left baffled by a surprisingly list of the top 100 goalkeepers in the world.
Number crunchers at CIES Football Observatory Index have ranked shot stoppers across the world based on stats to see who is the best.



They have taken into account the level of competition, results of games played and the “deviation in the percentage of saves compared to the expected value” to come to their conclusions.
And CIES have given top spot to PSG and Italy No1 Gianluigi Donnarumma, who scored 95.5 out of 100.
Second place went to Inter Milan's Yann Sommer and the bronze medal position was awarded to star Thibaut Courtois.
But fans have been left shocked by some of the other names in the top ten, including Brentford stopper Mark Flekken and Chelsea keeper .
Flekken has made 130 saves in the this season, 30 more than any other player, while keeping five clean sheets.
Sanchez is ranked sixth by the statisticians despite much criticism from fans this season.
The Spaniard has made five errors directly leading to goals in the Premier League, which is the joint-highest amount in the division.
But Chelsea supporters do not need to worry about the goalkeeping position as loanees Djordje Petrovic and Kepa Arrizabalaga make the top 100.
The man spending the season at Strasbourg ranks 11th and Bournemouth's No1 is 17th.
Alisson is regarded by many as the best goalkeeper in the league, but he has to settle for 33rd with a score of 75.1 out of 100.
That is behind Celtic's Kasper Schmeichel in 19th and Burnley's James Trafford in 27th.
Meanwhile, it is bad news for keeper as he has failed to make the top 100 entirely.
His predecessor between the Old Trafford sticks David De Gea is 53rd after a strong campaign at Fiorentina.
Other surprise inclusions are ‘s Antonin Kinsky in 67th, while the club's first-choice option GuglielmoVicario is nowhere to be seen.
Sheffield United ace Michael Cooper and star Alphonse Areola just about sneak in at 81st and 86th respectively.
Fans have slammed the rankings, with one saying: “Immediately I saw Sanchez’s of Chelsea name there, I disregarded the list.”
Another added: “Did David Raya and Emi Martinez start playing a different sport?
A third wrote: “Scandalous.”
