Shay Given is one of Newcastle’s best ever goalkeepers, and he made a total of 462 appearances for Newcastle and 134 appearances for the Republic of Ireland.
And Shay has kept in tough with his former club and like many former players is a stauch supporter of the club.
Eddie Howe has often said he wants the former great players to keep in touch with the club, and he recently welcomed Shay back as he worked with Newcastle’s other goalkeepers in a goalkeeping master class.
You can feel to camaraderie at Benton as Shay gets to work.
And of course they make goalkeepers bigger and taller these days, with Shay at 6ft 1ins and Nick Pope at 6ft 7ins – must be those hamburgers with all the protein in them.
This is a very entertaining video and we hope you enjoy it.

Comment #164The gaps Villa are leaving open here are insane. Literally looking like they’ve had two men sent off.

Comment #165Just give liVARpool the win.
19 minutes of added on time over both halves – it’s almost an extra 25% of game time!

Klopp seems to think his fine is optional. Doesn’t matter what they use his fine for, they could use it for a party. It’s not his decision.

Comment #177That will do nicely!!!
We are basically in the CL, one point seals it and we dont even need that unless we concede a bucket load of goals and/or Liverpool score loads.

Haha! Aye, or even that they’re donating it to Everton for their transfer funds in the Championship next season (hopefully).

Comment #197Only way Liverpool would have a chance on goal difference is if we got tanked by LC and Chelsea. Can’t see it, obviously. But then again, I have no doubt Liverpool could win by 7-8 goals against Southampton. And they’ll get 20 minutes of extra time if they need a goal or two.
