Premier League's most-relegated player Hreidarsson picks top five survival musts for Brentford and Co.

Having slipped out of the top tier on five occasions, an Icelandic legend is well-versed in the demands of trying to beat the drop

Hermann Hreidarsson has more than 330 Premier League appearances to his name, along with an FA Cup winners' medal and 15 years of experience in English football, but also holds the unfortunate honour of knowing that no player in history has suffered relegation out of the top tier on more occasions than he has.

The legendary Icelandic defender tumbled through a notable trapdoor five times during the course of a distinguished career, with backwards steps taken while serving Crystal Palace, Wimbledon, Ipswich, Charlton and Portsmouth.
