The 50 Best Tottenham Players of the Premier League Era
16. Sol Campbell
Position: Center-back
Years Served: 1992-2001
Stats: 258 appearances, 10 goals, 1 assist, 16 yellow cards, 1 red card
Tottenham fans of a certain age likely resent Campbell’s inclusion on this list at all, much less this high. The England center-back spent nine seasons playing some fine defense for Tottenham before signing – on a free transfer – with Arsenal. Needless to say, this is just about the highest treason that any Tottenham player can commit, at least in the eyes of the fans.
In the interest of objectivity, however, he’s included here in acknowledgement of his considerable contributions to Tottenham. However it might have ended, there’s no use denying how well it went while he was at White Hart Lane.
