=== UEFA Euro 2016 ===

Considered by some in the media to be the current best goalkeeper in the world, and one of the greatest goalkeepers both of his generation and of all time, Neuer is widely regarded as a "complete" and modern goalkeeper. He is regarded by some pundits to be the best goalkeeper of the modern era, with Peter Staunton of ''[[Goal.com]]'' labelling him as "the best goalkeeper since [[Lev Yashin|Yashin]]", who is currently the only goalkeeper ever to have won the [[Ballon d'Or]].{{refn|name="playing-style"|group="nb"}}{{#tag:ref|See<ref name="newrepublic_1"/><ref name="evolution2"/><ref name="thescore2"/><ref name="ESPN Profile"/><ref name="more than a sweeper"/><ref name="best in his position" /><ref name="Neuer"/><ref name="world's best goalkeeper"/><ref name="best goalkeeper in the world"/><ref name="Neuer is best in the world by far"/><ref name="Neuer takes goalkeeping to spectacular levels"/><ref name="WORLD'S BEST GOALKEEPER 2016"/><ref name="Is Bayern Munich's Manuel Neuer the best goalkeeper ever"/><ref name="Anatomy of a goalkeeper"/><ref name="Awards"/><ref name="Neuer is the best goalkeeper since Yashin"/><ref name="auto3"/><ref name="auto4"/><ref name="auto1"/><ref name="auto5"/><ref name="auto2"/><ref name="auto"/>|group="nb"}}

A tall, large, athletic, and physically strong player, Neuer has earned critical acclaim from former players and pundits for his speed, stamina, composure, concentration, consistency, and mentality, as well as for being able to adapt to any given situation on the pitch. He is particularly known for his exceptional reflexes, shot-stopping abilities (with both his arms and legs), agility, speed, and footwork, as well as his handling, capacity to read the game, and ability to come out to collect crosses, which enables him to command his area effectively. When the situation demands, he will also often essentially fill the role of a sweeper when opposing players have beaten the offside trap or his team's defensive line by quickly rushing out of goal to anticipate opponents and clear the ball; his skill, speed and decision-making in this area enables his teams to maintain a high defensive line. Because of his unique playing style, Neuer has been described as a "sweeper-keeper", and has been credited with revolutionizing the role of the goalkeeper in modern times. Pundits have also praised him for his positioning between the posts, as well as his ability in one-on-one situations; furthermore, he is effective at stopping penalties and has also been known to take and score them in shoot-outs.{{refn|name="playing-style"|group="nb"}}

A former outfield player in his youth, in addition to his goalkeeping ability, Neuer has also been praised for his excellent ball control and for his accurate distribution of the ball with both his hands and feet; his long throwing range and ability to kick the ball into deep areas with either foot enables him to play the ball out on the ground or create plays or launch swift counter-attacks from the back. Regarding his technical skills on the ball in comparison to other players in his role, Neuer has stated that he could play in the German third division as a center-back if so desired. Due to his authoritative leadership and vocal presence in goal, he also excels at communicating with his defenders and organising his team's defensive line.{{refn|name="playing-style"|group="nb"}} In 2015, [[Gianluigi Buffon]] described Neuer as the best goalkeeper of his era in the air.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://90min.com/posts/2732836-gianluigi-buffon-names-arsenal-s-petr-cech-as-the-best-goalkeeper-of-his-era|title=Gianluigi Buffon Names Arsenal's Petr Cech as the Best Goalkeeper of his Era|publisher=90min|author=Mahmoud Jaber|date=19 November 2015|access-date=8 February 2019}}</ref>

Despite the praise for his style of play and role in the development of the goalkeeper position in football, Neuer has also received criticism in the German media for his reflex-like objection to attacking moves in his box regardless of whether they violate rules or not. In particular, his tendency to instantaneously raise his arm to alert the referee has led to the creation of the German word ''Reklamierarm'' (roughly translated: arm of objection) in German media.<ref>{{cite news |last=Wallrodt |first=Lars |date=10 September 2015 |title=Torwart-Reflex: Der ewige Reklamierarm von Manuel Neuer |trans-title=Goalkeeper reflex: The eternal complaining arm of Manuel Neuer. |url=https://www.welt.de/sport/fussball/bundesliga/fc-bayern-muenchen/article146217458/Der-ewige-Reklamierarm-von-Manuel-Neuer.html |access-date=29 May 2019 |newspaper=Die Welt |language=de}}</ref>
