Download Your Favourate Leeds United caricature Now About Nigel Martyn Birthplace : 11.8.66. St Austell Height : 6ft 1 Weight : 14st 7 Position : Goalkeeper Nigel Martyn was the first million pound goalkeeper in the country joining Crystal Palace in 1989 where he gave some outstanding displays. He moved to Leeds United in July 1996 for £2,250,000, making him the most expensive goalkeeper in England. In his first season he kept 23 clean sheets what a start for the Leeds United Player of the Year. Nigel Martyn has been a regular member of the England squad for a few years playing second fiddle to David Seaman. With two keepers of such quality the country is divided about who should be first choice. Nigel Martyn has been one of the key players in my eyes in the 2000/01 season which sore Leeds United go Marching on in Europe and its not only me what thinks so Goran Eriksson the New England boss is more than impressed with Nigel's efforts on the pitch. But like everything in this world time will catch up on you and with new star Goalie Paul Robinson giving such a good display in the 2003 season its hard to see a come back for Nigel at Leeds his contract runs out in the summer of 2004, by which time he will be approaching the age of 38 which is no spring chicken. So it came as a big surprise when David Moyes steped in and took Nigel to Everton maybe he has diffeant ideas for Nigel Martyn like a couple more seasons as a player to keep the goal keepers on there toes at Everton and then maybe into a role coaching. If this did happen it would be well deserved. |
