Veterans who never grew old in soul.
Our series of texts about the leading veterans in the history of the Premier League is coming to an end. After the dozens of the oldest field players, there are five of the oldest footballers in principle – and, of course, they are ahead of the five of the oldest goalkeepers. Please also read the front parts:.
Three chervoni per match, possible goal in the final KEC - and just Thiago Silva Ferguson's lovers, Ferguson's victim - and Super Kev Mark Schwarzer Remaining match in the Premier League: 42 years, 5 months and 8 days Clubs in the Premier League: Middlesbrough, Fulham, Chelsea,! Yakby Claudio Ranieri, regardless of Leicester’s matches, who had not achieved anything at the end of the season, released the reserve goalkeeper at least for the hell of it, breaking the record for 43 and a half years. Ale Kasper Schmeichel enjoyed triumph until the end, but Schwarzer was satisfied with other achievements: two championships (Leicester City, former Chelsea), as a football player won without playing a second.
However, Schwarzer is definitely not a bad character in terms of the cup. If you are a fan of the nuclear submarine, you would like to enjoy the zero fates that you have earned for this trophy, as very few people.
In the meantime, if the Premier League clubs have not yet sucked the whole world all the way to Oman in search of talents, Mark, even more recently, through the love of the Bundesliga clubs (for the Australian national team, since Mark then may not even get a chance: then at the same time his namesake Bosnich) made his way into. A remarkable game for Fulgham, a phenomenal game for Middlesbrough, in just five seasons the first three Premier League players have more than a hundred shots saved – Mark became a legend of English football long before the championships.
Brad Friedel Last match in the Premier League: 42 days, 5 months and 23 days Clubs in the Premier League: Liverpool, Blackburn, Aston Villa, Tottenham If Spurs signed Hugo Lloris, there are a lot of football fans from abroad swaggered like he was so talented and. Now, if He has become a legend not only of Tottenham, but of the whole of France, one may soon wonder what is required in order for 40 rocks to put such a genius behind one’s back.
Premier League record for the number of rounds played: 310 games – and whose record was not changed by two changes to the club. A record that can only be repeated by Ali Al-Habsi, for the number of penalties won in the Premier League season:. One of only three goalkeepers in history (and the only one who does not represent Poland) who saved more than one penalty in the world championship, behind the scenes. Nareshti, one of the six goalkeepers who scored a goal in the Premier League: for example, in the match against Charlton, the American once put his foot in the distance.
Chantly, in the wake of Friedel, it’s not surprising that he could choose another pastime instead of football. Having taken up basketball, he finally rejected the request of the legendary team of the University of California - the same as the great Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Ale Friedel chose football - and for a long time he could not express himself. As soon as 24 years of age have debuted in professional soccer - and, perhaps, you will be lost from the game for as long as possible.
And why should Ulya bet on the stick not on such a goalkeeper, but on the funny Westerveld.
Stiv Ogrizovic Remaining match in the Premier League: 42 days, 7 months and 24 days Clubs in the Premier League: Coventry, Coventry, Coventry, Coventry, Coventry, Coventry and again Coventry So, just like that. A goalkeeper with a nickname unknown to the English (he was once called “Oggy”) not only became a symbol of Coventry for many years to come - beyond the Great Revolution, but also became the main argument for the establishment of a boring team in the Great League. The team, which found itself in the richest and most popular light of the world at the downturn of the good old First Division, with each season it showed less results. The only thing that stirred up the majority of her victories in the devil’s fight for survival is the goal, which is the grave for the “heavenly blue” four hundred, five hundred, six hundredth match.
Nothing could have happened: before 20 years of age, Stiv became a police officer, who was not highly rated in English football at that time. He managed to sign a contract with Chesterfield, and after a few months he transferred to. the strongest command of the world.
Seriously, Liverpool from the end of the seventies to the beginning of the eighties was practically an uncontested contender for this honorable title. U 1977-1981 rr. “Chervoni” took three Champions Cups, despite the fact that only the champions of the region and the Volodar trophy were selected for this tournament. І axis, such a command signs an absolute noname, even just an amateur.
Of course, Ogrizovich came as a reserve, having played more than four matches in five years. But the CV's presence of such a team allowed him to get involved with the group in the 20-year limit. Getting ahead of myself, I will say: Steve was one of the few players in the history of English football who managed to take the field in major league matches in four different decades. Another one is the legendary goalkeeper of Leeds and Arsenal John Lukic, as well as Stanley Matthews and Peter Shilton.
True, Steve, it seems, took breaks between games at the “vishka”. From Liverpool we have the most modest Shrewsbury, which is a grave in the Other Division. Already in two seasons the wines crossed near Coventry, and in another three – graves against the collected world.
Although Steve did not rank with the English national team, his contribution to the success of the “sky-blankets” was so highly appreciated: they requested an exhibition match for the First Division national team. Coventry gave Ogrizovic the magic of a place: here he played 601 matches (of which 507 were major league matches), won the FA Cup, scored one goal and was practically invariably ranked in the top of the most stable and best league's biggest goalkeepers. And the confidence of his team was vitally needed: exactly half of these 14 seasons in the first team, as Ogrizovic won for Coventry in the first place, the “sky-blownies” finished below 15th place. Ale didn’t fly every time.
For the remaining two seasons, Steve still spent time on the bench at Coventry - wanting the coach to be his same age as Gordon Strachan, he decided to buy the Swedish national team goalkeeper Magnus Hedman for the better and trust his place in the frame.. At the last home match of the 1999/2000 season, the Oggies won their place, defeated Shefield Wednesday and held an ovation when they had paid their dues..
Coventry flights have already begun the season, at the onset of 20 years of life, without claiming to turn around, and in their plans they remained in the fourth division.
Alec Chamberlain Last match in the Premier League: 42 days, 10 months and 2 3 days Club in the Premier League: Watford Remember this, it will help you if you have a quiz asking you to name all the people who played for League Verpoul. Besides, “grav” must sound loud; All three teams had Alec coming in as a clear substitute.
As there is a lot of controversy, Chamberlain has long claimed Colchester and Tranmere in the fourth division, as he has called Luton to the top. Tsikavo would have learned about the secrets of current scouting - as a representative of the elite could learn about talent from the very bottom of the quagmire. Well, anyway, Alec played his big part of the game with the great Liza himself as a “dropper”.
There were further matches for Sunderland, and only in the Other Division (after Chamberlain's promotion was released) – and the status of a Watford legend. Tsikavo, who is with Luton at the new historical derby, and for 11 years on Vicarage Road Alek zmusiv forgot about it. He won a penalty in the Championship play-offs, allowing Watford to reach the Premier League for the first time. Chamberlain himself spent only two seasons in the Premier League, both of which ended with a volley - but in the rest of the 2006/07 season he replaced Ben Foster, the veteran was applauded by the entire stadium.
John Burridge Last match in the Premier League: 43 days, 5 months and 11 days Club in the Premier League: Manchester City Between Ogrizovic and Burridge we might like to squeeze in. John and Steve are not just beds - the stench from all over the world.
Wanting to get an even more honorable rating, they were abandoned by one and the same fanatical loyalty to the country, but they came to her in radically different ways. As Ogrizovic has done everything to be in one team (and to be in the elite) as well, Burridge, in addition to the century-old record, set two more. John's track record includes TWENTY-NINE different teams - and there are as many as seventeen professional ones. The loss is a record for English football.
When the time came at 46 to say goodbye to football, Burridge ended up in a psychiatric hospital. He simply didn’t know how to live in the future: he dedicated his entire career to avoiding the inevitable loss of football forever.
Workington, where Burridge was born, is a terrible mining town in the middle of England. The great Bill Shankly coached the same name club, and in Carlisle, which is nearby, he faced a loss - and he spoke of his father’s life as a deeply depressive place. Well, it’s hard not to love Burridge, because his father was an alcoholic miner and the saint especially loved to beat his squad, John’s mother.
Being involved in football allowed him to escape from this hell, and even in matches for FC Workington, John delighted the audience. He was so nervous that, having practiced his hands in order, he was still screaming without any blows.. Afraid of missing out, with whom we were not afraid to see each other - and having caught up on so many innovations that the cracks simply open.
Burridge started playing games a long time ago, when she became a first person, and introduced the concept of pre-match warm-up to British football.. “When I was young, preparation before matches was a fact every day. At the important match against Manchester United, the team was in disbelief and calmly marveled at the strikes just before the starting whistle.. I arrived at Old Trafford and started to warm up on my own - all the transfers, stretches, handstands. People thought I was wicked,” says the gatekeeper. Just marvel at the reaction this warm-up got:.
Even greater gods for English football in the 1970s depended heavily on alcohol. The gate is adjusted to the standard British hedgehog (all the “fish and chips”), having been convinced by a psychologist - and becoming the first who, having started to wear mittens, is not worse in dry weather. “Everyone was shouting at me, but all of a sudden these speeches have already become the norm,” says the goalkeeper.
It’s easy to remember about this speech, but other things will sound wonderful in the future. We believe that we know so much about beating the closest matches. He watched over his food, and from his death gave precedence to the diet of African leaders. Before the matches, he lay down in his goalkeeper uniforms and mittens. I begged two legendary goalkeepers, Shilton and Pete Jennings, to play with him in order to impress my dear girl. Zagalom, his head was mixed with a lot of wondrous speeches, and at the exit there appeared a “gate for the hour”.
Everyone knew that Burridge was a reliable and flexible person. It was unrealistic to get along with him for a long time - the goalkeeper and not having accepted that for the first successes he would receive an increase in salary - unless the club finally needed a goalkeeper, he called Burridge. There were more than 29 transitions in his career - just not for all the teams who played a match.
That being said, Burridge was not a clown, but we will only know the news. Blackpool, the first club after the city of Workington, is now inducted into the Hall of Fame. His star was taken by Aston Villa, which turned to the top league - and John won three victories for the legendary club, winning the League Cup. Crystal Palace and Wolverhampton and John mostly went to the plane - however, they flew with him immediately. For Southampton, he “simply” won the season against the great Lisa, and earned leadership in this rating by transferring from Man City. The club, which is not at all rich, signed the goalkeeper to the deep reserve, but after injuries to three (! ) Other goalkeepers were at the end of the season – and one of the four matches went to zero.
Burridge finally managed to return to a normal life.
In his words, this very psychotic person has become confused about talking about the lack of demand from professional football in 47 years, as a problem, since his mother had previously said that she wasted three children. He knows his job at Skhod: worked as a goalkeeper coach in the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Malaysia, and as a head coach in the Philippines. Apparently, working with the Omani youths, we noticed an even promising goalkeeper. “Keep training hard, and I’ll send you to the English Premier League club,” John said.
I was a student when the legend of Vigan Ali Al-Habsi was born.
