Unfortunately he was so injury prone.
one the last CL for Ajax
Hear hear. One of the best of his generation no doubt. I loved watching him play.
I recall a fairly recent game when he played for Finland against Wales (I think it was one of Toshack's last games in charge *shudders*). Litmanen was 38, or possibly even 39 at the time, but he quite literally ripped the whole Welsh team to shreds on his own and won the game single handedly. I know it didn't exactly take much to beat Wales during the Toshack years, but still, it was an amazing display for a guy his age against a team 10 years and more younger than him.

Luis Suarez' teeth might be back in place if Cantona would be around these days
But King Eric is one of the best foreign players to play in the PL #fact
