3) Edwin van der Sar (Fulham and Man Utd) – 313 apps
The Dutch goalkeeping legend arrived in England after a failed spell at Juventus, but he quickly put that right with four outstanding years at Fulham.
Van der Sar’s performances led to Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson bringing him to Old Trafford in 2005. In his six-year spell with the Red Devils, the Dutchman won the league title four times, as well as being named in the PFA Team of the Year on three separate occasions.
