For many football fans, records are one of the ways the Premier League keeps its drama alive.

Every season, supporters watch players push limits, whether it’s in goals, assists, or appearances.

Longevity, however, is one area that only a handful can achieve.

Playing at the top level year after year requires not just talent, but discipline, fitness, and a relentless drive.

Fans know how tough it is to even stay in the league for a few seasons.

To do it for more than two decades is almost unthinkable.

That is why when a player breaks new ground in this area, it catches everyone’s attention.

This season, Liverpool supporters are celebrating one of their own for achieving exactly that.

James Milner has now played in 24 consecutive Premier League seasons.

That is an extension of his own record, as he was already the only player to have played in 23 straight seasons.

The new milestone shows just how remarkable his consistency and professionalism have been since his debut as a teenager.

Milner’s durability also places him on the verge of another historic mark.

He is now just 15 games away from becoming the player with the most appearances in Premier League history.

For a man who has given his best years to clubs like Leeds United, Newcastle United, Aston Villa, Manchester City, and Liverpool, this is another reminder of the legacy he continues to build.

From a Liverpool point of view, this is not just about statistics.

Milner was part of the squad that won the Premier League title in 2020, ending a 30-year wait for the club.

His leadership in the dressing room and professionalism on the pitch have been praised by teammates and managers alike.

The fact that he continues to play at this level, while extending records, only strengthens the respect he holds among Liverpool fans.

He was the only player to have played 23 consecutive seasons?

So extended his own record.

And with him only 15 games away from taking the all-time appearance record, the football world is watching closely.

Liverpool supporters, especially, will be hoping he finishes this journey in red, where his influence has been greatest.
