8. Craig Bellamy

Club: Cardiff CityAge: 34

The talented yet troublesome Welsh forward has garnered a bit of a reputation of being a bad boy on the football pitch. His disputes with both managers and players are well documented. His most famous run-in was with fellow team mate John Arne Riise before a crucial Champions League game versus Barcelona. Yet, despite all the negativity surrounding him, Bellamy has always delivered. He put his dispute with Riise to one side, scored once and set up another goal for, you guessed it, Riise as Liverpool claimed a historic result at the Nou Camp.

His electric pace and vicious shot has garnered much appreciation. Despite all his problems, he has made telling contributions to almost every club he has represented and that is the mark of a good player. Now back at his beloved Cardiff City, he will be hoping to make one final bow before setting off into the sunset of retirement.

7. Jussi Jääskeläinen

Club: West Ham UnitedAge: 38

The second goal keeper on the list is the man with multiple Umlauts in his name. The Finnish goalkeeper has quite a reputation at Bolton Wanderers, having represented them 527 times before joining current club West Ham United. His performances between the sticks have been nothing short of marvellous over the years. A double save he made against Man United came third in a poll of best saves in the last 20 years of the Premier League. If only he had played for a Top 4 club, his legendary status would have been cemented with a glut of silverware.
