Great work - I had been looking for a list like this. One more Australian though (one of the best, too): Mark Schwarzer (Fulham)
ReplyDeleteThanks,
ReplyDeleteWeird. Schwarzer was on my initial rough draft list but I think he disappeared when I was doing some copy/paste organizing to put the clubs in A-Z order.
Thanks for letting me know, he's up there now
Aruna Dindane! Portsmouth - Ivory Coast...
