Veteran Australian shot-stopper and another legendary goalkeeper, Mark Schwarzer began his career at National Soccer League club Marconi Stallion in 1990. The Aussie 'keeper spent four seasons at the club before moving to Germany for the next two years with Dynamo Dresden and FC Kaiserslautern.

In 1996, he left Germany to join English club Bradford City and is the most capped player for his country with 109 total appearances. After a brief stint with Bradford, Middlesbrough came calling as Schwarzer was given a golden opportunity to assert his first-team credentials in England's top division.

He did not disappoint, spending the next decade with Boro - making over 300 appearances.

In 2008 after 11 seasons with the Teesiders, he made the decision to move south into London with Fulham interested in establishing some stability at the back.

After five years at the Cottagers, a two-year spell with Chelsea was largely ineffective with opportunities scarce. He made three Champions League appearances and four in the Premier League, before a final campaign with former champions Leicester.

Here, he added one more clean sheet to his tally - a goalless draw against Hull City in March 2015 was their first fixture without conceding for two months.

The following season, he watched on from the substitutes' bench as Leicester achieved the unthinkable and won the Premier League. Deciding it was the perfect time to retire, Mark earned third spot on the all-time chart with 152 clean sheets in 514 appearances.
