Matt Le Tissier is one of the most celebrated legends to have graced the English Premier League. He is also one of the most respected figures in the league's history, thanks to the loyalty he showed to Southampton by playing for the club from 1986 to 2002.

As a player, Le Tissier had a plethora of talents: he had superb vision, technique and was brilliant at scoring goals. However, he could have won all the titles and honours he so richly deserved, had he left Southampton for the top clubs who were vouching for signature during his playing days.

As a footballer, he finished runner-up in the Full Members' Cup in 1992 - the only time he reached closest to winning a trophy. For someone who is a part of the English Football Hall of Fame, that is hardly a stat to showcase.
