Jose Reina- super keeper

A spanish who was born on August 31, 1982, with the height of 6' 1'' .
Reina, began his career with the Barcelona youth team in 1997.two years later he was a member of the Spain side which won the European Under-16 Championship.
He was handed his Barcelona debut in 2000 against Celta Vigo, aged only 18, but having failed to hold down a regular place in the first-team he joined Villarreal on loan in 2002.

The stopper was in supreme form as the club finished seventh and reached the last 32 of the UEFA Cup.
He made his Liverpool debut against Total Network Solutions in the 1st qualifying round for the 2005/06 UEFA Champions League.
He is seen as something of a spot-kick expert. In 2004/05 he saved seven of the nine penalties Villarreal conceded and would go on to be equally important for Liverpool in penalty situations.
He proved it again when Liverpool drew with Chelsea in Campion league semi final 2006/2007. They both ended up by penalty shoot out. Reina saves the days by saving 2 out of the penalty and bring Liverpool to final.
For me he is the important walls for Liverpool .To win a game , must make sure no goals conceded and forward scored the goals.
In 2006/2007 Premier League He played 35 games saves 143 times
