One of Australia's most successful soccer players, Mark Bosnich enjoyed more than 20 years playing the game professionally, including with the English Premier League's Manchester United, Aston Villa, Chlesea and the A-League's Central Coast Mariners. Now widely acclaimed as one of the EPL's greatest goalkeepers, Bosnich joined Manchester United at the age of 16, before joining Aston Villa soon thereafter in 1992, making 227 appearances over seven and a half years for the Birmingham club. The '95-'96 season was perhaps Bosnich's best; as first-choice goalkeeper he helped the club to fourth in the league and a 3-0 win in that year's Football League Cup over Leeds United.
