CB: Ledley King (captain)
There was only one man who was ever going to govern the back four and captain Spurs’ greatest ever Premier League XI.

King had an injury-plagued career, and it’s fair to say that he could have been even greater than he already was.

Nevertheless, King captained Spurs to their last trophy in 2008 and his relentless style of play and put everything on the line attitude to the game will be remembered fondly by Spurs fans for years to come- thanks for the memories Ledley.
