Thibaut Courtois began his footballing journey for his local youth club originally as a left back. But by some stroke of luck or maybe even destiny, during a tournament for his club Genk, the squads goalkeeper suffered an injury and had to be removed from the match. The squad then looked over to no other than their left back and the tallest kid at the time, 16 year old Thubaut Courtois to put on the gloves, stand in front of the goal, and try as hard as he can to not f*** up. But much to their surprise, he would be an iron wall and so impressive that only a few months later, his coach forced him to stay on and continue to be their keeper .Fast forward to today, and he’s one of, if not, the best goalkeeper in the world. Putting on one of the greatest goalkeeping performances ever seen in football history. This is the story of Thibaut Courtois

Where do you rank Courtois on the list of all time keepers? 👀 Leave a like if you enjoyed ❤️ Love yall
Top 10 10000%, after that ucl season performance oh ofc
Top 10 keepers of all time.. ( not in top 5 though) 😏😏😏luck won't help u every time....
top 10 for all time
It's too early to rank him top 10 all time but by the end of his career he could be top 10
Top 5 no cap he deserves more credit
Never forget that 442 magazine didn’t put him in the top 10 goalkeepers in the world but instead they had aaron ramsdale and Jordan Pickford ranked ahead of him lol
Courtois own Pickford and Ramsdale whole career lol
😂😂😂 they should fire their editors
English bias
Courtois is definitely one of the best goal keepers for sure, he's top 3 for me. Him and Benzema had a very good year, without these 2 player's I don't think Madrid would have won much this year.
I would honestly say he single-handedly carried the game against Liverpool. The rest of the RM squad looked kinda average (for their usual quality) but Courtois had so many crucial saves, he truly was the iron wall for his team
He definitely was the reason Real Madrid won the CL final. If not for him, it would have been at least 3-1
Unbiased opinion, best keeper in the world
courtois was for sure the potm for the final, he made salah and mane look like average players

Am I the only one who couldn’t imagine courtouis playing in any other position ??
Thinking of it, Buffon started as a midfielder and he was already in Parma's youth.
Tbf he could have been one of those tall lanky strikers but wouldn't reach far in his career
My man can pick up a basketball and play for real madrid’s euroleague team if he had gone down another path 😂
@@RaymarFootball lolllll😂😂
I don't know how crouchinho didn't play as a keeper...
Atletico Madrid has been blessed some really great goalkeepers in the modern era.
Courtois, de gea and oblak
Damn!
Kiko
Cassilas ?
@@petermachiela5441 Casillas played for Real Madrid bruh
@@AzizDoufikar2280 he also played for atleico madrid
@@AsthmaBreather No he played for porto after real madrid
I remember his first season in Madrid everyone was as trolling him but now he’s the best goalkeeper in the world 🙌
No he ain’t
@@kaihiggins725 real Madrid without him wouldn't even be in the Finals
He is the best keeper in the world right now. Coming from a Barca fan
Gotta block out the noise and keep grinding 💪
He was booed in the preseason match against Atlético Madrid in 2019. There was tension because the fans preferred Navas over Courtois. I was there and I was kind of disgusted when that happen. That 19-20 season is where he started to earned the respect of the fans.
This dude made us cry in that UCL final. What a beautiful performance that was. Me and my brother were arguing, he was the optimist and I was the pessimist. I was like, "there's no way he'd be able to keep this up." My brother was like, "He's on fire, he'll stop everything. Man's a brick wall."
Cortuis is such a great keeper and he proved himself again.I remember his great performance against Brasil in the world cup quarter finals ,especialy when he saved neymar's shot in the last minute
Very underrated but this past season puts him for sure at the top 10 all time for me. Maaaaaaybe even top 5
@@RaymarFootball neuer overrated cuz he played in germany, when bayern was on top he was on top same with the national team
courtois surely top 3 by the end of his career
@@lexkanyima2195 he was good but he didnt play 40 or 30 games per season
@@bsm1114 Neuer was still ELITE. He came top 3 in the Balon D’Or. He was an elite shotstopper and elite with his feet. Courtois can’t be above Neuer.
@@r.i.psteez929 he was elite, top 3 in ballondor sounds impressive AT FIRST but until you look at jorginho and you go back to my point, ballondor is a popularity contest, just because a player wins it, it doesnt mean they're the best, or else messi would have never let ronaldo win it
As a barca fan, I clowned courtois when he got embarrassed by messi whilst he was still at chelsea. But he has defo redeemed himself since joining madrid.
.
Personally I think hes been the best gk in the world since 19/20 when he singlehandedly carried that real madrid team to la liga. No ronaldo, bale was being phased out, benzema wasnt the player he is today, etc. I still have PTSD thinking back to on his performances that saved real madrid in so many games back then. What a legend.
one of the most iconic goalkeeping years for sure!
@@RaymarFootball I love your content and have nothing against Courtois, but you seem to have skipped over the 2018 - 2019 season. His first season for Real Madrid wasn't anything special.
@@samuelstephen8147 everybody knows that
@@Roman-yv3ye I'm sure that's true, but I was just pointing out that he skipped over it.
Hes tall, he has those reflexes, that ball catching. He's just too good he was underrated in chelsea. He deserves what he's getting hope the best for him what a gk.
Care to explain what and when was he underrated at chelsea?
“Underrate AT chelsea”. Sounds like English might not be your forte, and thus far, your logic is lacking also.
He wasn’t his best at chelsea tbh but he was very under appreciated
@@HelioPopTart keyboard warrior
@@HelioPopTart where u born like yesterday?
@@HelioPopTart is this a fucking class Or am I a teacher to explain the shit??? Ffs man.
The only other world class performance I’ve seen in the champions league final was Lord Karius for Real Madrid in 2018
LMFAOOO
😹😹😹😹
Respects to him for staying on the pitch even after a concussion
Courtois, Casillas, and Neuer are my all time favorites
I never watched lev yashin play but I respect him alongside oliver kahn
@@yrnkevinsmithC-137 yashin the only keeper we've heard from the pélé era. Shows his greatness
Dont forget dida
Lev and casillas are the best of all as they are also at a big disadvantage of being shorter yet very skilled and acrobatic
Maybe a bit biased, but Guillermo Ochoa VS Brazil in 2014 was incredible. Absolutely underrated
The thing is, ochoa only turns of during these national events. At club level in mexico, nothing impressive or amazing is shown as often as his national team performances. Definitely a good national keeper, but club level he just completely turns into a regular keeper
@@Joeee0304 completely agree. But it's always a pleasure to see him turn up on the big days. With more consistency he could have gone far
That youth coach should better be proud of his judgment. Remember, he indirectly makes Belgium #1 ITW based off FIFA ranking.
Also, football games (EA, KONAMI, UFL, whatever), can you try implement this in your games? Thanks
Hahaha, it wasn’t such a hard choice tho tbh given he was tall af 😂
thank you for making this video. Courtois has been my inspiration for 5 years now and he deserves more respect. this video is the best and most entertaining video ever
The only goalkeeping game that good i can remember is Mexico vs Brazil in 2014 world cup. Ochoa was a wall throughout the whole game
I don't know if you watched AFCON but that Egyptian keeper did the impossible
I don't know where he stands in all time great goalkeepers list, but the performance in last Champions league final is on top of my list.🙏
I always wanted Courtouis in Real Madrid. 🔥 Amazing Video!!
appreciate that my brother 🙏
This giant is growing on me. He was perfect in the final. Amazing goalkeeper. Respect to Madrid for this season.
Man has won everything, 3x la liga champion, 2x premier league champion, ucl and uel champion, world cup golden glove
yup 💯 already solidified his career as one of the most successful goalkeepers
Another vid ANOTHER BANGER! I have became a fan of you raymar and I have to say. You get better every vid. KEEP IT UP!
thanks for the kind words my man 🙏 just hope I can keep making enjoyable vids for yall. think i should change the music? haha
@@RaymarFootball No the music set the tone, you know? I think you should keep it but it's your channel.
Thanks for another video, Raymar!!
The caption is not him playing as a defender. The "mine for talent" shirt was made by the club prior to the final game of the 10/11 season in which we were playing for the title. After we took the title, fans and players celebrated on the pitch and all players, including him as a goalkeeper, wore the shirt to celebrate a title won with a team full of academy graduates. As we are a coal miners team, the term "mine for talent" was a reference to the performance and our heritage.
Never knew he played as a defender, probably prior to playing for Genk tbh. I did know he played volleyball for a long time.
One of the greatest goalkeeper of all time in my opinion what he did in the champions league final to help madrid is crazy the best for sure
Great video, Raymar!
I love Courtois best of of the best goalkeeper of all time
very good keeper but after what he did to debruyne he is a horrible person
Hes a monster between the post ! 🔥
In History definitely top 10 in this season his on top 1st for sure!
It's astonishing how real madrid keep on having world class keeper Cassilas , Navas ,Courtois .
It's an automatic cheat code being tall as a keeper.
gotta have reflexes and speed though! not many tall people are super coordinated
He simply amazing man!! Fr
Great video about Courtois but are we just gonna ignore how SMOOTH that transition to the NordVPN ad was? 🤣 had me laughing at how beautifully performed it was tbh.
It was finally time I subscribe 😁
A goalkeeper who is 'man of the match' in a champions league final, is just the best goalkeeper ever!
One of the best goalkeeper appearance after Neuer game against ManU (when he was at Schalke)
I think the most important point in his career was the begining of the 2019/2020 season, just after his misrbile first season with Real Madrid, which was going to be a career ending one, acept for him keeping his cool, and focusing on coming back stronger.
He’s always been good, always remember that!
Hes definitely in my top 5 goatkeeper
Name the top 5
veeeery close to the top 5 for me, but can arguably be there for sure
10:00 Kjaer thought it wasn't saveable 😭
Bro l really love your videos, and you have that real understanding of football. Plz make a videos of What happened to Neymar
That transition to the sponsor bit was smooth as.
2:00 all the more impressive knowing that Kevin De Bruyne played in this team and already had a very high level
8 years ago this guy lost to Real, now he won with them. Amazing.
Make a video saying " Just how good was Tostao"?
One of the most underrated midfielder who had the skills, technique and overall gameplay arguably at the level of Zidane, Pirlo and xavi
Let's be honest here most of that Champions League final was Liverpool VS Courtois, and Courtois won it. That game was unreal. It was like Real had a brick wall covering that entire goal, what a fantastic match he had. He's one of the worlds absolute best goalkeepers, in fact he might be the best of them all.
yup they would have 100% lost without courtois going crazy
@@lexkanyima2195 it is bro
You just can't deny that Courtois is one of the best goalkeepers out there alongside Oblak, Kaylor Navas and others. 😍😍😍😍😍
Best keeper performance for me was 2010 World Cup final casiallas was a wall for Spain best performance i ever seen
I think one of the best individual goalkeeping performance I've seen is de gea, when arsenal faced off against Manchester united, 16 saves in 1 game it was insane
Height plus good reflex combined with his command area its understandable gonna make him great GK.
vs liverpool was amazing
your videos are great
thank you mate 🙏 much love
He 100% deserve TOTY
agree 1000%
He was world class ever since his days in Atlético Madrid.
of course
It would be great if you made a video about Ajax and its history 😄
My idol raymar with another tapin. Keep it up bro.
Also a question. It sounds pretty obvious but who’s better?
Ronaldinho or Neymar
Tapin 😂😂😂 thank you my man, appreciate the love 🙏
Prime: I’d say Ronaldinho, career and consistency Neymar
That's my FUT 23 goalie! :D
For sure top 5 without a doubt
I had to fill in at defense for my team and i didn’t let a player past me and now i am more confident pressing when i play offense
He has had an amazing season with real but its early to call him a top 10 best gk of all time,lets see if he can keep up with these performances until he hangs his boots then we can see if hes top 10 which i am confident he will be top 10
Make a video on a defender (u dont have a single one). Maybe about Beckenbauer
youre right bro I’ve yet to do one 😂
Yeah start with Nesta or Maldini
Good vid!
thank you for that brother 🙏 will do my best to make good ones for you guys
He is My Inspiration 🧤🥅🇧🇪
Watching the champions league final this season I just remember I kept shouting “what a saveeee”
Please do a video about Poal Gascogine
I think that he is definitely a top 3 keeper of our day, but it is hard to call him an all time great if you compare him to the buffons, neuer, zoffs or yashins. He’s simply not even near those keepers yet, but he is high quality.
Why not? He has been elite/world class for the past 8 years. He has won 1 champions leauge title, 1 Europa leauge title, 2 laliga titles, 2 premier leauge title. 1 prem golden glove. He's only 30. I'm not saying he's the best goalkeeper of all time. But he's surely one of the best goalkeepers of all time. Easily top 30. I feel navas deserves a mention in your list btw.
I was really happy when Madrid signed him in 2018 because for me Navas was decent but never world class that's why Madrid was chasing de gea for years and failed. But after his horrible season in 2018-19 many of my friends were abusing him though I always had my faith on that big guy and he definitely proves me right ✅ 🙌🏼
he said he was trying to prove the haters wrong haha
You’re crazy
Watching before 2 more re uploads
thankfully not this time brother 😂😂🙏
Nah, man. Courtois' performance in the 2022 UCL final doesn't just go down as "one of the best goalkeeping performances" it goes down as one of the best performances by a player in a UCL final period. For me it's easily up there. Courtois was the best player on that field that match.
Could you do a video on Thomas Muller an unrated player
He is flourishing under Ancelotti
I think we all forgot to mention that in the beginning of his time in real madrid he was trolled and now he is being praised again.
I'm from Belgium and I support the team Genk. It was almost unbelievable to see the team we had at the time with KDB and Courtois in the same team just annihilating the pro league at the time.
"annihilating" funny. It came down to the last game in the league to become champions that year. They were a deserved champion that year no doubt, but they didn't win with 20 points ahead of the competition mate...
@@FragLord Wasn't talking about Genk as a whole although most of the squad was quality. I was obviously referring to the fact that they footballing ability of KDB and the leadership and talent of Courtois made it so that they were a different breed compared to players in the same positions. useless comment.
@@sandergrosemans2450 I agree with you, but the fact that you needed to specify this doesn't make this comment so useless brah... They didn't annihilate the league and you know it, also there were other major talents running around in Belgium at the time. I wouldn't say they were the only 2 special ones in the competition at that time. Beware, you are not the only one who watches the Belgian league. I guess it's your bias as a football supporter
Number 1 Thibaut Courtois ofc
Reymar i have a vid idea..its about a underrated goat his name is Manwall Neuer
Title:Just how good is Manwall Neuer
I’ve recently gotten an ankle injury that put me out of my natural winger position and I suck at cb so I’ve changed to a goalkeeper Ive never watched so many goalkeeper videos
Try to be a jedi master
Raymar love you but how do you fail to name the name of his team in Belgium
Honestly that final performance was better than prime casillas in madrid so i think he will be better than cassilas and a lot of goalkeepers in history
Future fifa icon
Well I think he already a 🐐
goalkeeping legend for sure
Can you do a video on Jorge El magico Gonzales
in 7:57 Kver thought they scored a goal😂
Could you make a video on Manuel Neuer?
Nice video
I am from India and I really love Courtois. I follow his skills in my training and it really helped me so much. Honestly, Courtois is the Undisputed GOAT( GOALKEEPER OF ALL TIME)
Navas wasn't aging... Navas was phenomenal and madridistas never wanted Navas to be replaced.. The first season when tibo became starting goal keeper for Madrid he received a lot of slack although that whole season Madrid was very bad but tibo also had to hear a lot.. U missed this
True
He was aging as in he was a getting older, not as in he was declining, which is true. And top level replacement is very difficult to find at the very high level, so when Real Madrid came across the Courtois opportunity, they seized it, it might seem cruel a bit, but you gotta prepare for the long term, it is what it is.
@@araag.4257 There is merit in what u say but then take the same scenario now.. If we find another keeper who is worldlclass and younger to tibo would u be OK to replace tibo with the new fellow? Keepers can play at an elite level for a long time unlike other outfield players so the change wasn't a necessary one..
@@somnath1235 He's 30 now, so still young for a keeper, but it couldn't definitely happen in a couple of years, yes.
@@araag.4257 Keeps can easily be in their peak till 37.. Hence 33 is not at all old for a keeper
If you think about it courtois youth team coach force because he saw potential of Courtois between the sticks and he was the tallest kid there oh yea if I was coach I would put him as goalkeeper and he quick reflexes he is a perfect fit
yup, thankfully he did! I know a bunch of taller guys who have no hand eye coordination lmao
The only question is...
Could he do it in a cold, rainy night at Stoke?
lmfao 💀
Bro, Make a video on Dmitri payet
merci
Agree
i didn’t even know he played as a defender
I was forced to go to school but became janitor
we all were fam 😂 keep grinding though my man 😤 better things to come for you 🙏 bless up
can you please do one on de gea
Degea vs arsenal the best performance ever in football history 14 saves
can you make one with neuer
1 dislike from KDB
Should really do a video on David de gea
But top 5 best individual performances in the Ucl final no doubt.
can you make one video of oblak
Give him a few more years and Yashin should start getting worried.
