Top Five Best Left Backs Of The Premier League Era

Top Five Best Left Backs Of The Premier League Era

As we mentioned in our list of the top 5 right-backs last week, the fullback position hasn’t always been seen as the most glamorous role on the football pitch, but it has developed into a key area over the past decade or so.

There are are a huge number of players who could have made it onto this list but we have managed to narrow it down to five of the best left-backs in Premier League history.

Honourable mentions go to the likes of Nigel Winterburn and Graeme Le Saux who didn’t quite make the cut, but we feel the list we have come up with is well thought out.


Press the “next page” as we go through the top left-backs of the last thirty years.
