Philipp Lahm

Retiring from international football aged 30.

Absolute legend. He has won a lot but I think these awards really tell you something:

FIFA WC 2006 team of the tournament
UEFA Euro 2008 team of the tournament
FIFA WC 2010 team of the tournament
UEFA Euro 2012 team of the tournament

Can't believe he's only 30, I'd have put him at about 35/36 in my mind :shock:

Pretty sure he was in the TOTT this World Cup as well.

Seems pretty early to retire, but might as well go out at the top.

Simply superb player. Didn't he play both LB and RB across those tournaments? And obviously midfield as this last time too.

absolute legend! have been a massive fan of his since WC 2006. yes he did play RB/LB for most of his life and the last year due to issues in bayerns midfield he has played as the DM. (which he played in germany for the first few matches as well, when he should have been LB from the beginning and let the khedira/schweinsteiger partnership flourish)
