Big-5 Weekly Post n°74 - Players born in the 1970's

The issue 74 of the Big-5 Weekly Post focuses on players born in the 1970's. The total number of minutes played by footballers born until 31.12.1979 is much greater in Italy than in the other four big-5 leagues. The oldest player who was fielded by big-5 league clubs this season is Brad Friedel (Tottenham, 18.05.1971).

Crystal Palace goalkeeper Julián Speroni heads the ranking for minutes played by footballers born in the 1970's in England. In the other leagues, at the top of the tables are Morgan De Sanctis (Roma, Italy), Olivier Sorlin (Evian, France), Esteban Suéarez (Almería, Spain), Raphael Schäfer (Nürnberg) and Zden?k Posp?ch (Mainz, Germany).

All the rankings are to be found on the CIES Football Observatory website.
