Avantages

Excellent diving ability, covering the goal well and making crucial saves from difficult angles.

Sharp reflexes, allowing him to respond quickly to fast-paced shots and dangerous one-on-one situations.

Reliable handling, rarely spilling the ball and providing a sense of stability for the defense.

Effective against close-range shots, excelling in one-on-one situations and making him tough to beat up close.

Inconvénients

Alternatives

Verdict final

Tim Howard is a top-tier goalkeeper with a great combination of reflexes, diving, and distribution. His 'Long Thrower' trait makes him versatile, especially in starting quick counter-attacks. Although his height is slightly below the ideal for elite goalkeepers, his overall shot-stopping ability and consistency still make him a strong choice for your squad.
