Premier League Hall of Fame.

 

The Premier League Hall of Fame is set to be launch tomorrow and has been on the Premier League discussion since last year. The Premier League Hall of Fame is an elite individual honor set to appreciate and award the most exceptional and skillful player to have graced the premier league since its inception in 1992. It will be the highest individual honor that any premier league player will be ever given.

Criteria used to choose candidates.

The players must have played in the Premier League as from 1992 when the Premier League was brought into inception.

The player must be retired as from 1^st August 2020. This specific criteria locks out the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Sergio Aguero and Premier League Legends who have played in the league but still in active professional football.

The players are only considered for Premier League contribution and not the FA, Champions League or any other competition they may have participated in.

Hall of Fame Induction

Two player will be chose for the inaugural induction and who will have been chosen by the Premier League official on basis of their Exemplary contribution to the Premier League. They will receive a medallion engraved with the year they got inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Six players shall then be voted for by the public as voting shall officially begin on Monday night after the two inaugural player have been inducted.

Potential candidates for the two inaugural positions.

The Premier League has seen exemplary talent grace the competition of being crowned English champions. Players have come from far and wide just to experience the English football on the most watched football league in the world. We have seen the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Thierry Henry, the 1992 academy graduates of Manchester United, Steven Gerrard a man that won all trophies for Liverpool except from the Premier League, Chelsea’s Frank Lampard aka Super Frankie, Drogba the legend of a Chelsea, Alan Shearer with his leading goal scoring record. The list goes on and on but only two shall be chosen for the coveted two inaugural positions.

Ryan Giggs tops my list of the two players set to take the inaugural position. The one man club player was at Manchester United from 1990 to 2014 and in which he won 13 Premier League titles making him the most decorated Premier League Player in terms of trophies. Only in second behind Gareth Barry, Giggs has 632 Premier League appearance 407 wins and highest Premier League assist in history. Most disciplined player with no records of red cards in his name in the Premier League.

Frank Lampard is my second player in my list of players to grace the inaugural Hall of Fame. The former Chelsea Manager will arguably be my number one midfielder. Having grabbed the player of the season in the 2004/05 campaign, Lampard led the blues in winning 3 Premier leagues and was a pivot point man in the Blues’ success in other major competitions. With 609 appearances, 177 goals for his name and 349 wins, Lampard was a midfield Maestro linking up the strikers with pinpoint passes. Together he formed a formidable midfield with the likes of Claudio Makelele, Juan Mata, Eden Hazard and Florent Malouda.  

Feel free to leave your favorite two players who you think are fit to be at the inaugural inducted Premier League Hall of Famers.
