Great guy and arguably Liverpool best ever keeper
RIP Ray you will be missed
Why did he leave LFC, was too young then to follow and there was neither a lot of live games nor internet then to stay up to date
I have seen a few quotes over the years that he had lost the buzz at Liverpool and wanted a change, he won his third European Cup and said:
The 1978/79 season arguably saw that Liverpool side at its best. Clemence conceded just 16 goals during a 42-game league season and kept 28 clean sheets. Two summers later, sitting in the Parc de Princes dressing room after a third European Cup win, he decided it was time to go.
‘I sat with a paper cup full of champagne and the feeling that it was just another game,’ he once said in an interview with the Independent.
‘I made the decision there and then.
‘I thought: “If you can't be on the ceiling after winning the European Cup, it's not the place to be”.
‘Before the game, it hadn't even occurred to me to leave.’ He was 33 and Liverpool had brought in Grobbelaar, so to sell him for £300,00 was a good fee I guess.
