Are goalkeepers the most undervalued members of a football team? Well, that often depends on which side you’re talking about.
In some teams, the goalkeeper’s name might slip your mind, but when Chelsea and Liverpool spent a combined £130 million on Kepa Arrizabalaga and Alisson Becker – neither of whom feature in today’s quiz – it showed just how much attention goalkeepers can attract.
These days, the pressure on the keeper is immense, being expected to initiate play from the back. The days of simply standing behind the defence and relying on them to handle the danger are long gone.
But none of the players on our list were ever the type to hide behind their defenders. They are the 25 goalkeepers with the highest number of Premier League appearances since 1992 – how many of these stalwarts can you recall?
