Jack without Liverpool trades and teacher of about five or six

James Milner will kick you off the ball and look brilliant doing it. He is the cat without trades and the teacher of the majority.

Who is this then?
James Philip Milner is a 34-year-old total legend, born in Leeds, enjoying his best years in the fall of his career in Liverpool. A 5 ′ 9 ″ multipurpose player who excels in several different positions, has played everywhere on the field, other than the goalkeeper and the center half, is built like a brick, is tough as a nail, and possibly the fittest footballer playing today

Legendary indefatigable from an early age, he has been excelling in almost everything he has done. A total of 11 GCSE mark him out as anything but the intellectually disinterested footballer archetype. A special award from the school for physical education was an early marker for his extraordinary physical prowess.

He played for his school in soccer, cricket and long distance running, amateur soccer for Rawdon and Horsforth and was on the Leeds United books from the age of ten. Making his first team debut at age 16, his first goal for the club made him the youngest scorer in the Premier League, a record he held for two and a half years.

He has made a total of 735 appearances for Leeds, Swindon, Newcastle United, Aston Villa, Manchester City and now Liverpool, with 61 additional caps for his country from 2009 to 2016, after having recorded 46 appearances for those under the age of 21. That makes 842 games in total and still goes on. There is absolutely no sign that he is retiring and no one would bet on him playing the best flight at age 40.

For many years during his career in England we called him “useful, like a colander”, or the like, in tribute to his simple, inconspicuous and hard-working performances. Given his ability to laugh at himself, he would probably appreciate such a nickname. If you imagine it, you imagine it sweating profusely and just running and running and running and running. He’s probably running right now. The man is surely a cyborg, not from Leeds but from the future.

Because love?
Not as handsome as he is handsome, his head is carved out of granite with a massive jaw that looks more like a geographical limestone feature you’ll find at Malham Cove. He has incredible high cheekbones that any model would die for, so sharp that you could cut cheese on them. Combined with charming, almost shy and fun blue eyes and a ripped body, it would be a perfect candidate for one of those monochrome posters of a muscular but tender man cradling a baby.

It’s rare for a player to be a fan favorite at every club he plays for, unless he’s a top scorer. A grafter rarely receives the same spotlight. This is surely due in part to the fact that at the end of each game, he always looked as if he had exhausted the last calories in his body. He stands there, drenched in sweat, rosy from his face, having given everything once more. And what’s more, you’re ready to do it again right here, right now if necessary. At the end of it all, that’s pretty much anything any of us can ask of a player.

There is a simple joy in seeing someone who is tremendously fit and strong and unafraid to use their physique. Sadly, this is what football is banning, of course. Being tough is frowned upon by many and doesn’t brag about being enough. Many of today’s mid-distance athlete footballers seem to be made of meringues and they couldn’t be difficult even if you put them in armor. Milner, however, is a true old school, made of cast iron, tough. He can do this to you.

This is difficult in the best way, that is, determined, hard, strong and determined. Not dirty. Ok, a little dirty. But just a little.

His way of stripping an opponent by basically inserting his massive ass and thighs between the player and the ball and basically eliminating him, but without giving away a foul, is just brilliant.

Of course it bothered Lionel Messi, who i don’t appreciate Milly’s refusal to let him do what he wanted when he came on as a substitute in game 4-0 at Anfield. Our hero gave him a bit of Yorkshire right in his tax evasion category. In the tunnel, he called Donkey Milly. In the tunnel. Yes, well, that donkey kicked your butt to Barcelona, ​​son. Messi’s claim that this was his revenge for being crazy in the first game was to completely misunderstand the situation. This is how he plays against everyone, Leo. He hasn’t made you a special case and maybe that’s what was so annoying.

Jimmy M is not a stop after stop race. It has had many ups and downs in Leeds and then Newcastle. He became an ordinary squad player in Manchester City, but in Liverpool, after a slow start, he has become indispensable. His ability to play in about nine positions and be really good at all of them is a manager’s dream. At one point, he became a bloody full-back, his career and his physique perfect for putting a club on the spokes of many ends or forwards. Or, as he would call it, “interrupting his rhythm.”

In addition to all this, self-loathing is a very endearing quality and James has it alone. So much so that in a very modern meta way, he interacts with his own parody account Boring James Milner. In an era of incredibly over-compensated self-esteem and brittle precious ego, he’s just a very dedicated professional, but he doesn’t take it too seriously. Or maybe he’s just an advocate of philosophy who says that to take anything seriously, you should be able to laugh at that. It is a great attitude to have.

He certainly seems to be having the best time of his life playing with his boring image and enjoying his time on one of the best teams we’ve seen in the modern era. And let’s face it, his medal collection must be almost stellar in this country, as he earned two Premier League titles, a Champions League winner medal, the UEFA Super Cup, the FIFA Club World Cup , as well as an FA Cup, League Cup and even an Intertoto Cup. He only needs one Europa League medal, although he does have a runner-up.

When the rest of the first team had vacations while the club racked up reserves against Shrewsbury in the cup, under Neil Critchley, our man stayed home to help the club’s young players before the game at Anfield. After training with the team the day before the game, he was in the locker room to offer advice and encouragement to the team. He even asked Critchley’s permission before doing so. It is this decency that we all love. In a league that was created to honor and boast of greed and greed, the sheer generosity of time is greatly admired.

And as if that wasn’t reason enough to love him, in 2011 he established his own foundation with the goal of promoting ‘healthy recreation for the benefit of young people in the UK by developing, improving and providing opportunities in sport ‘while also raising money for national charities like Bloodwise, MNDA, NSPCC, and Help for Heroes. So far it has raised over a million pounds.

Milly is basically better than us.

What people love
A bulky mail bag this week for this true common man. When someone sets a good example and is inspiring and joyful in doing so, it is no surprise that people wanted to celebrate.

‘Great professional first. Play anywhere, you are never disappointed and always ready to help your team. Consistent, a good leader: I don’t recall commenting on him and seeing him when he had a bad game. After spending time interviewing him last week, there is much more to him than people realize. Fun, self-critical, honest and very good at analyzing games and situations. As you used to say: a suitable soccer man! “- Darren Fletcher, commentator.

‘Just a model footballer. He doesn’t drink, he can despise himself, and he never stops running or trying. He runs his own charity ball that makes a LOT of cash for good causes every year. It should be an OBE when he retires. He even captained England that time. Legend.’

‘As a Villa fan, he ranks extremely high among the midfielders I’ve seen play for the club. It’s a well-used cliche, but it really is an accomplished professional. It is famous that it has never tasted beer. Very underrated player. Swiss Army Knife. We all dream of a James Milners team. “

‘King of the tactical foul, taking a yellow card for the team is easy. However, commentators never criticize or highlight this as his reputation is that of the boy next door. “

‘I loved seeing him cry last season after beating Barcelona. I showed how much it meant to him. “

‘I listened to the 5 live interviews with him yesterday and he confirmed my opinion that there is nothing I don’t like about Milner. A decent human being, a direct guy and a very underrated player. “

‘When he was first in Newcastle, I thought he would eventually end up as a center forward in the Shearer mold, he had all the attributes. He particularly loved his true twisted scales from the 70s. He should never have let it go, Keegan’s autobiography is scathing about this. “

‘It seems like he would be as much at home in the trenches of World War I as on a Premier League field. Popular in all the clubs he honored. A professional model. Certainly an archetype. “

‘It never stops running. It’s like a train, except it arrives on time. “

“If there is an adorable meter for footballers, Milner has definitely smashed it to pieces, and the game needs another.”

‘Every newspaper in the country probably has a shortcut on their keyboard that only adds the phrase “(of course, not James Milner)” for when they write ax pieces about how these’ flash ‘footballers take themselves in the modern era. ‘

‘All his previous clubs would have him back, which says a lot. One of the best professionals in the league and one of the most consistent in whatever position he is playing. The manager’s dream, I imagine. “

“I would love to see him again at The Mighty Whites to finish his career.”

Possibly Possibly the friendliest man in football? He embraced the “boring James Milner” personality with a good mood. “

‘It is just an absolute machine, non-stop and does not give up. Fantastic player and he seems like a really nice guy. As a free transfer, it probably was as important to this team as Gary McAllister. “

‘You have never been in trouble, have you? Old school professional doing his job, with a great sense of morals. His celebration of the cane penalty was extra-comic, since he was only 33 when he scored it. “

“A professional model”.

“He will probably go on to be the most consistent and versatile English player of his generation, yet his name will become the most frustrating answer on every pub quiz the rest of the time.”

‘I also imagine that he knows everything about everyone in training camp. You could definitely see him asking canteen workers how their children are doing at school or chatting with caregivers about their new cars or vacation plans. “

‘An old-fashioned professional who represents the game superbly. Underrated and not always appreciated by fans. A player who wishes he had played for my club and should have been a regular in England and for me would have been an ideal captain. I hope he becomes the best coach. “

“It makes Benjamin Button look like a fraud!”

‘Keep in mind that in the past two seasons, your job from the bench is to kick everything that moves. Some absolutely ridiculous fouls at that time. “

‘I love how he interacts with his Twitter cartoon. The fact that the parody account exists is kind of proof that everyone loves him because he’s just a solid guy who turns out to be a deceptively good footballer. “

‘Meet someone who worked for an old Milner president who was suspicious of James because, I quote,” I had never touched alcohol. ” Suspicious? Any young man who can demonstrate that level of willpower should be knighted, not suspicious. I love the boy. “

‘He would be the captain of a team made up of opposition players that he can trust to play well against his team, every time. Annoyingly consistent and reliable. Total pro “.

“Not all teams, but pretty much every successful one, I’m a fan of the Spurs and always felt that if we had had a Milner-like character a few years ago, we would have won the league.”

‘He had to be the nice guy at school who was super fit and good at everything. All the sports were, but he was always clean and well prepared for family occasions. “

“I can never have enough Alf Tupper knockoffs in the world.”

‘I know practically nothing about his private life. This is a good thing! ‘

‘If given a lab and equipment, James Milner could destroy a decent Covid 19 vaccine by the end of May. It wouldn’t be perfect, but it would do the job until 2023 when scientists finally start sending theirs. “

Three great moments
His first goal for Leeds was a routine six-yard tap-in, but the second was brilliant. Barely 16 years old, and he stops short of Marcel Desailly and puts him on the corner. And all while wearing a shirt three sizes too big for him.

High pressure penalty, you say? No boy, that’s not a problem.

It’s not all about hitting people off the ball and whipping penalties. This clearance on the goal line was typical of his never giving up attitude.

Now what?
Personally, I hope that his last season as a pro, which given his incredible fitness levels will probably be when he is 44, will be played in Leeds. It would be completing a perfect circle to return to his childhood club.

I can’t imagine him as a manager, somehow, although he would be an excellent physical trainer. When you think about it, he really is a guy fond of hard work, dedication, and loyalty. Although he has had five clubs and one on loan, he generally stays for four or five years. He is in his fifth place at Liverpool and will surely keep him on a one-year contract until his batteries run out, which may not happen soon. All clubs need a utility player, but traditionally they are a trade and teacher of none. However, Milly owns about five. It wouldn’t be a surprise if he was good on the net too.

One of those players who, in two or three generations, will be spoken from father to son with silent awe. Saw Did you see James Milner play? How was he? “” How was he? It was … sweaty … and useful, like a spoon. “

For a long time you can continue to exude the sweat of three men.
