A US-based website recently named Itumeleng Khune among the best goalkeepers in the world, but what do the fans think of his rating?
Earlier this week, a website called Ranker mentioned Khune's name alongside the likes of David de Gea, Marc-Andre ter Stegen and Gianluigi Buffon in an active poll listing the best shot-stoppers in the world.
"Itu" came in as high as eighth on the voting list, sitting between recognised names Guillermo Ochoa and Kasper Schmeichel. Khune responded to the recognition with a post on social media, saying: "It is what it is fam", along with some laughing emojis.

That said, Khune's fans have had their say on the topic, with many of them in agreement that Chiefs' long-serving goalkeeper is among the best in the world.

It is not matter of agreeing. You are the top goalkeeper and you been consistent performer for couple of years.

Do you agree that Khune is good enough to be named among the best keepers in the world?
