One club men in football.

Seen this list on FB I take issue with a few of the names on here and the names missing no mention of Paolo Maldini, Ryan Giggs or Francesco Totti 🤷‍♂️

Who in your opinion are some of the best examples and is John Greig our best and only true example of what you'd call a one club man?

[Rangers_no1 32,639]

Pretty sure that's because its a list of current players mate.

[mitre_mouldmaster 21,509]

13 years with 367/377 appearances is pretty shite to be honest.

Tav has been here for 5 years and has racked up 325 appearances.

[Dickie 12,905]

Jimmy Bell.

[EMRFC 4,786]

Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Tony Adams, Carles Puyol

As far as us… haven’t seen a one club Rangers player in my lifetime. 

[Goianegra 4,684]

Half of them aren't even one club players.

It's not a list one one-club players. Such as Gerard Pique

Seems to be a list of current players with the most years at one club on reflection, but I was coming at it more from the one club for one's entire career angle. 

Always baffled me why players like Raul and our ex manager who is probably the most famous example, go through their entire career at one club then spend the last year or two at a lesser team just winding down the clock.

Gerrard's was simply about money and the lifestyle in LA. He's said that previously. Didn't feel he was ready to retire and having 100k a week after tax to live in Malibu and go through the motions was too good to refuse.

IIRC, Raul was largely pushed out the door at Real over the number 7 jersey.

No doubt it was about the money and im sure his wife enjoyed the lifestyle living in LA.

But the 34 apps for LA Galaxy takes the shine off the CV imo.

Totally agree. Even more so if you'd actually watched them. He was fucking rotten

Ryan Giggs played for Man City as a kid. 

[Colin Traive 22,908]

Lewis Stevenson at Hibs made his debut September 2005 and has played well over 400 games in 16 years to date. Never played for another team.
