“Harry Kewell was unlucky at Liverpool” | Football's Greatest Australian Players

Australian football legend Mark Schwarzer joins Jeff once again on the pod, this time to pick his Top 5 Australian men’s players ever. Some top names from the Premier League era are discussed including Harry Kewell, Mark Viduka and Tim Cahill.
Which of his five does he suggest could have played for any of the top clubs in the world?
Who, according to Mark, was the most talented player his country has produced?
Whose move to one of England’s biggest clubs didn’t work out and why?
Mark also recalls what it was like to like to be part of the squad that reached Australia’s first men’s World Cup in 32 years and picks out some of the current crop he thinks could have an impact in the years to come.

“Harry Kewell was unlucky at Liverpool” | Football's Greatest Australian Players

When Kewell first joined Liverpool during his first 20 or so games prior to injuries he was a level above all of his team mates

Viduka was massively underrated. Best player I've ever seen with his back to goal. Once he rolled a defender the ball was in the bottom corner before they'd turned round.

Harry Kewell was geniune world class till he started getting bad injuries.

Agreed kewell from 98 - 02 was unreal especially at leeds. One of my favourite players growing up I loved watching him.

[@danielhackett1581]

Re Viduka i saw an interview with him once where he said a bid was accepted by leeds from Real madrid but he turned it down as he thought leeds were on the up

What happened to Craig Johnson?

Retired to look after his sister then designed a football boot. The Predator that was manufactured by the German sports apparel company, Adidas.
