In almost everybody's lists, Marc-Andre ter Stegen is amongst the best goalkeepers in the world, as is expected to be the case for a player who looks at home in one of Europe's best teams.
This year, he is fighting for the Zamora trophy in the league and has conceded the fewest goals in the Champions League this season with just three.
The 26-year-old knows that what lies ahead between now and the end of the season will be key and he wants a second Champions League semi-final, having beaten Bayern Munich in his first.
Tuesday night sees him return to the Stadio Olimpico to try and gain that place, but it is also the stadium where he was humiliated by Roma's Alessandro Florenzi.
In autumn 2015, in the first game of the group stages, Luis Suarez gave Barcelona the lead but Florenzi struck from his own half on the touchline of the right flank to lob the ball over the German shot-stopper and into the net.
Without the credibility he has today, it was a nightmare moment for the youngster who was then trying to persuade Luis Enrique that he should be starting ahead of Claudio Bravo.
"Those goals happen rarely, but it's true that it made me stronger," he said of the incident on Monday.
"I'm also more careful of shots from the middle of the pitch."
Whilst he wouldn't admit that the goal changed him, he did confess that he took the criticism on board and has improved as a result.
