5) Heurelho Gomes (Spurs And Watford) – 195 appearances

Heurelho Gomes

After signing for Tottenham from PSV in 2008, the goalkeeper initially struggled for form, but he was the London club’s number one for three years. He did eventually lose his place, making very few appearances between 2011 and 2014.

Watford signed him on an initial one-year deal in the summer of 2014, and he helped the Hornets to promotion to the Premier League. He was then the club’s first choice for the next three seasons in the top flight before the arrival of Ben Forster meant he was relegated to the bench. He retired back in October.
