Who were you on the playground?

When in goal, Gianluca Pagliuca or Jorge Campos, when outfield, Thomas Hassler. Bit out there, but there you go!

We used to play European leagues or World Cups, if the attackers missed the goal completely it was a point to the keepers team if they scored, their team got a goal, first to 3. Pressure was always on to not miss the target!

We'd actually play a full World Cup, picking a team each from every game and wrote the scores down until playing the final 😆

Great, simpler times.
 

I think I had three who I genuinely aspired to be:

Rinat Dasaev, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, and Neville Southall.

Yes, I think I had impeccable taste from 10 years old onwards...
