Can think of Dino Zoff who has a relatively successful time, bar that it's pretty limited. Walter Zenga had a stint but nothing of note, Shilts had a stint at Plymouth which was pretty non eventful. After that I'm struggling, unless I've missed someone of note. |  |

I wonder if any of his saves were due to Holy Spirit? 🤣 Edit: I'm pretty sure Nuno Espirito Santo had extra help, so maybe JP II did, too! [Post edited 23 Sep 17:11]

And it could happen to a nicer person... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toni_Schumacher |  | |  |
