Sometimes that new club’s history and traditions are really important too and that was proved when experienced England international James Milner agreed to join Liverpool in the summer of 2015 as soon as his Manchester City contract had expired at the end of June. Liverpool knew that they would be gaining the services of a ’model professional’ who has never made the headlines for the wrong reasons during a somewhat nomadic career so far. James Philip Milner was born in a suburb of the Yorkshire city of Leeds so it wasn’t a surprise that his early promise as a footballer was recognised by his local club, Leeds United because he joined their Academy when he was only ten years old. As well as making excellent progress with his club Milner was also called up to represent his country at two different age groups before he had signed his first professional contract. He was still a few weeks short of his 17th birthday when Terry Venables gave him his senior debut in an away match at West Ham United which the visitors won 4-3 with Milner coming on for Jason Wilcox a few minutes from time. Seventeen more Premier League appearances (and two goals) followed by the end of the season but only one of these was from the start. Leeds, beset by off-the-field problems which caused financial meltdown, were relegated from the top division a year later, a season in which young Milner had a useful loan-spell with Swindon Town (6 appearances, 2 goals) as well as adding thirty Premier League matches to an already-impressive total for a teenager. Despite having signed a five-year contract with Leeds early in 2003 the midfielder agreed a deal of similar length with Newcastle United less than 18 months later. Although used mainly on the left by Leeds he found himself playing mostly on the right under the man who signed him for Newcastle, Bobby Robson, but Robson was succeeded by John Carver (caretaker-manager) and Graeme Souness before Milner had really got settled in the north-east. It was Souness who arranged for Milner to go on loan to Aston Villa in 2005, where he was reunited with a man he had worked under at Leeds, David O’Leary. Villa finished 5th from bottom in 2005/06 and Newcastle only finished marginally higher than that in the next two seasons on his return to St James' Park as Milner made 91 more Premier League appearances in those three seasons. After playing the full 90 minutes in Newcastle’s opening two league fixtures of 2008/09 Milner returned to Villa Park, this time on a permanent deal with a four-year contract. Oddly, something similar happened just two years later because after playing in Villa’s opening fixture of 2010/11 he was on the move again, this time to Manchester City, and his City debut came in a comfortable 3-0 home win over Liverpool. Milner missed very few first-team matches for Manchester City in almost five seasons and for most of that time, he was a regular in the senior England squad as well. Throughout his career, he has received acclaim not only for his prowess as a footballer but also for the way he conducts himself as a human being. He was immediately appointed vice-captain and took on the mantle of Liverpool's penalty taker in 2015/16. a consistent performer, he was mainly used on the right of midfield and ended the season with 7 goals from 42 appearances. He was called up to England's Euro 2016 squad by Roy Hodgson but after playing just three minutes in the tournament retired from international football to concentrate on his club career. For much of 2016/17 Milner was used as a left-back and prior to the start of the following season, there was some scoffing when Jürgen Klopp announced that he was a new midfield signing. He defied critics though and made a record-breaking number of assists as Liverpool reached the Champions League final. 2018/19 was more of the same as Milner started 31 games in all competitions and came off the bench fourteen times, playing across the midfield and at full-back. He was the preferred penalty taker when on the pitch, holding his nerve to score kicks at crucial stages of away games at Fulham and Cardiff as the season drew to a close. He also came off the bench after an hour of the Champions League final. During the 2019/20 title winning season Milner remained in top form, scoring some crucial spot kicks and earning a new two year deal. During 2020/21 Milner was used less frequently, with fifteen of his 26 league games coming as a substitute. It was also the first goalless season of his career. On the final day of the season against Crystal Palace, he came off the bench with twelve minutes remaining for his 250th Red appearance. There were 10,000 fans allowed into this game, the highest allowed at Anfield all season due to the Covid 19 pandemic. On the opening day of 2021/22 Milner captained the side at Norwich on the first day of the season. There was a full house at Carrow Road as Liverpool won 3-0, and Milner was delighted, telling Liverpoolfc.com "It’s incredible. I remember the first few times I stepped out when there was nobody there and coming out of the tunnel it was the first time it really hit you because normally when you step out of the tunnel you either get the roar or booed or something, anything would have done, but it was just quiet and that’s what really hit you. But having our fans here today singing all the way through and seeing them at the end, amazing to have them back and obviously it will be special next week at Anfield as well. We’ve missed them and hopefully we can keep putting in performances and getting results like today for them.” Milner remained as fit as ever and stayed at Liverpool for 2022/23. 24 of his 31 Premier League appearances were as a substitute but despite being 37 years old it was reported that manager Jurgen Klopp was keen for him to stay on longer. No new deal was forthcoming from the club however and he left at the end of the season. ----------------------- Quote Liverpool agree deal to sign Milner Liverpool Football Club are delighted to announce they have agreed a deal to sign Manchester City’s James Milner, subject to a medical. The Reds have agreed personal terms with the England international, who will join the club on a free transfer on July 1 after his contract at the Etihad Stadium has expired. Milner will arrive at Anfield having lifted two Barclays Premier League titles, an FA Cup and a League Cup during his five-year spell with City. The 29-year-old is also firmly established as a regular for England and has notched 53 caps to date. Having also represented Leeds United, Newcastle United and Aston Villa, Milner has lined up against Liverpool 24 times in total during the course of his career.

Popular Post Guest tsbalabanov Posted June 4, 2015 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Резонна заплата, с оглед на това, че идва без пари и има солидна визитка зад гърба си. По-съм съгласен да даваме такива заплати на хора като него, от колкото по 50-60 к на такива като Яго, Алберто, Борини и т.н. Успех, Джеймс, дано се получат нещата при теб !

Guest liverpool_ynwa Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Аз съм доволен от този трансфер, трябват и такива хора. Не е най-блестящия футболист, но както вече се каза е доста постоянен в изявите и си е биткаджия, от каквито имаме нужда.

Guest Liverbird Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Добре стартираме трансферния прозорец! Милнър е от играчите, които знаят как да носят пияното. Трябват обаче и още един двама които да могат да свирят на него, за да е завършена картинката. Единственото което ме притеснява в този трансфер е позицията на която ще го постави треньора. Ако го взимаме за десен бек, уингбек или един от тримата централни защитници, за да може синчето да оперира в центъра на халфовата линия, то по-добре да не го бяхме взели. П.П. Също така е ставал и два пъти шампион, не е за подценяване. morski, Anfield boy, Canopus and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest blunt Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Не е финализиран трансфера защото не е минал мед. преглед, което както всички знаем при над може и да се окаже препъни камък Той трябва да е голям бастун,за да не мине прегледа.Ако всичко си му е наред,може да си го броим за наш вече.Ако сериозно ще прибира по 150 хиляди на седмица,то това си е голяма инвестиция в него,явно се надяваме да излезе изключително важен играч за нас.12 млн на сезон ще ни струва по 4 години = 48 млн паунда,а година преди изтичане на контракта му ще е на 32,така че при евентуална продажба малко пари ще можем да вземем.Отделно сигурно ще мушне и сега при подписването някаква сума.Та дано да е успешен,с правилните футболисти около него може да бъде много полезен според мен.Ако само това добавим обаче към халфовата си линия това лято,тежко ни.Трябват ни още двама - дефанзивен халф(заместник на Лукас) и заместник на Алън.

Guest NikolaY Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Последния доказан бритиш, който взехме с ненормалната му заплата от 110 хил. паунда на седмица се чудехме как да го изгоним няколко години. Дано с Милнър положението не е такова. Определено опита, рутината и енергеята му ще ни помогнат много, така че се надявам да се впише в отбора, колкото се може по-бързо. Нека бъде жив и здрав и да не го измъчват неприятни контузии. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cyberfan Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Това 12млн на година, преди данъците ли е? Щото 52 седмици по 150 000 са 7.8млн. You'll never walk alone! Freack, men4o and ReD_Gerrard 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dacheff Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Милнър според мен е добро попълнение, особено за без трансферна сума. Аз лично съм доволен, че го взимаме. Само да поправя колегата blunt, защото не знам как ги сметна тези 48 милиона, че ще ни излезе. Ако му е 150 хиляди заплатата, то умножено по 52 седмици, прави 7.8 милиона на година, а не 12. Ако е четири годишен договора, то стават 31.2 милиона. Simply Red, AllorNothing, morski and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest liverpool_ynwa Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 А, кой/къде видя заплатата на играча, че веднага се смята със 150к на седмица? Нека да е официално, пък тогава да се ползват калкулаторите. Аз не вярвам, че ще му бъде предложен повече от 3 годишен договор, както и не вярвам, че ще му се предложат 150к на седмица.

Ако е четири годишен договора, то стават 31.2 милиона. Да,ама нали обявените заплати са уж нето.За милионери данъкът е някъде 40-45 % в Англия.Тоест за да получава чисто тези 150 хиляди на седмица,то клубът му дава към 250. И всъщност съм почти сигурен,че обявяваните заплати са си след данъците,защото примерно нашия разход за заплати е колко - към 140 млн паунда годишно май беше?Сега не знам това дали включва заплати на треньори,друг персонал,младежи и тн,но и да ги включва ,как може да достигне такава цифра,ако са в бруто обявените цифри за заплати на повечето ни играчи (естествено не официално,но от медии като ББС,Еко и тн). Иначе ако общия разход за заплати е около споменатата от мен цифра то излиза,че средната заплата при нас е над 100 000 паунда на седмица на футболист от първия отбор.Което е ясно,че не е така.Което логично говори,че тия цифри,които ги четем - за Стъридж 120-140 хил,за Джонсън 100 хил и тн са си сумите,която футболистите прибират чисто след данъците.

Guest drenski Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 След като събрахме достатъчно на брой лекогабаритни и повечето от тях технични футболисти, е добре да имаме и един Милнър - британски биткаджия, а не не такива като Маркович. Роджърс май харесва по-дребни и леки играчи. (Дали защото самият той е бил такъв?) Няма идеални физически параметри за добрия футболист. Но ако в един и същи момент на терена са Алън, Коутиньо, Лалана, Стърлинг и Маркович вече става туу мъч.

Guest Vince Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 И аз одобрявам този трансфер... има опит и ако играе с нужното желание има какво да даде на отбора... а и предпочитам да гледам него, отколкото някои сегашни мастъри в средата на терена... заедно с Хендерсън и Лалана, може и да сформират някакво ядро в центъра!... Принципно е леко "дърт", но и един Пирло го смятаха за такъв преди да отиде при Госпожата... ще видим, от него си зависи. baivan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
