Description
Eduard Franciscus de Goeij (born 20 December 1966), known as Ed de Goey, is a Dutch professional football coach and former player who played as a goalkeeper. He is currently the goalkeeping coach of Vierde Divisie club VOC Rotterdam.
In a 20-year playing career, de Goey played for Sparta Rotterdam, Feyenoord, Chelsea and Stoke City. He played 31 times for the Netherlands national team.
Club career
De Goey started playing football at hometown amateur side Olympia before moving to professional club Sparta. He signed for Feyenoord in 1990 and stayed there for seven years. During his time in Rotterdam, he missed a total of just eight games and won one Eredivisie title (in 1993) and four KNVB Cups in 1991, 1992, 1994 and 1995. He was awarded the Dutch Golden Boot in 1994.
De Goey joined Chelsea in June 1997 from Feyenoord for £2,250,000. He was first choice goalkeeper for the first three years of his six years spell, and was a member of the sides that won the League Cup, the Cup Winners' Cup (both in 1998) and the FA Cup in 2000. In 1999–2000, he set club records for most appearances (59) and clean sheets (27) during a season, both since surpassed by Frank Lampard and Petr Čech respectively. De Goey later lost his place in the side to Italian Carlo Cudicini and made just 25 appearances in his final three seasons. He was released by Chelsea in May 2003.
He joined Stoke City in August 2003 and became the club's first choice goalkeeper for the 2003–04 season where he made 38 appearances. He faced competition with Steve Simonsen in 2004–05 and made 17 appearances before losing his place completely in 2005–06 and was released at the end of the season.
