Where are they now: Blackburn Rovers Premier League title winning team

Tim Sherwood - Central Midfielder (Captain)

Tim Sherwood may have been the man that stopped Blackburn Rovers signing Zinedine Zidane (yes, that's a real story) but the former Rovers midfielder remains the only man in the last 100 years to captain a team to top-flight glory.

Seven years at the club resulted in a move to Tottenham in 1999, but ultimately Sherwood was the first major name through the door when Walker flexed his financial muscles during the summer of 1992 as he signed from Norwich.

In 1993 after a successful season under his belt, Kenny Dalglish still wanted to sign more midfield players and French starlet Zidane was his top priority. When Dalglish requested Walker to sign the Frenchman, his response was simple, yet devastating, "why do you want Zidane when you have Tim Sherwood?".

Maybe Walker's comments in hindsight made sense, but the English international captained his side to Premier League glory less than two years later and was a significant member of the squad.

Since retiring in 2005, Sherwood has managed both Aston Villa and former club, Tottenham - roles he was both sacked from controversially. Sherwood is now the Director of Football at Swindon Town.
