00:00 From a fresh-faced teenager playing for Leeds United to a 38-year-old stalwart in the Premier League at Brighton,
00:09 James Milner has had quite the career in English football.
00:13 He is second on the all-time list of appearances in the Premier League
00:17 and now he has equalled Ryan Giggs' record of 23 consecutive years playing in the division.
00:24 In the time between Leeds and Brighton, Milner has played briefly outside of the top flight on loan at Swindon Town
00:30 before a move to Newcastle United and then to Aston Villa,
00:34 before trophy-laden successes at Manchester City and then Liverpool.
00:38 With those two clubs combined, he has won three Premier League titles,
00:42 two FA Cups, two League Cups and the Champions League.
00:46 He also reached 61 England caps, scoring one goal.
00:50 Given Milner's fitness and dedication, he will certainly want to break the longevity records
00:55 and after that, who knows how long he will continue in the game.
