ow retired, Sweden's Henrik Larsson won a Premier League title with Manchester United and both La Liga and the Champions League with Barcelona. He here runs the rule over the former ahead of Saturday's Wembley showdown . .
Champions League apps this season: 9. Goals: 0. Assists: 0. Yellow cards: 1. Red Cards: 0.
He has everything that you want from a goalkeeper - a great presence between the posts, superb positional sense - and he is a brilliant shot-stopper. Sir Alex Ferguson has bought two of the best keepers in his time at United in Peter Schmeichel and Van der Sar and that is one of the big reasons he has been so successful. The Dutchman has now played at such a high standard for such a long time that he does the easy things well so often it looks automatic. He has said today will be his last game and he deserves to leave football on the biggest club stage of all.

I haven’t seen much of him, but I’ve heard that he’s a little bit less attacking than his twin brother Rafael which might make him less exciting to watch but is surely the right choice when up against such a relentlessly attacking side as Barcelona. Sir Alex has been playing him regularly in the final weeks of the season and that’s probably all you need to know.
