INFO:
Mariner was a centre-forward. His career started at Plymouth Argyle where he scored 61 goals in 155 matches from 1973 and 1976. He then joined Ipswich Town where he had the best time of his career, making 337 appearances and scoring 136 goals from 1976 to 1984, winning the 1977-78 FA Cup and the 1980-81 UEFA Cup. Meanwhile, he earned 35 caps for England, scoring 13 goals. After leaving Ipswich Town, he played for Arsenal, Portsmouth and some clubs in Australia and United States. He retired in 1993.
Mariner was a gutsy and prolific striker, accurate with both feet. Capable in the air and an extraordinary header, his main task was to receive the ball from his teammates and score, although he didn't dislike creating chances himself. In fact, he often decided to move outside the box to get the ball − often using tackles − and then go to score or pass the ball. In order to do that, he was skillful on the ground as he possessed good technique, dribbling and speed.
