One of the most reliable players in Premier League history, he has been a mainstay for sides since his debut for Leeds as a 16-year-old in 2002. Once the league's youngest scorer, he has quietly amassed a stack of top-flight honours with the minimum of fuss. Has embraced a 'boring' tag given to him for his quiet lifestyle, but his career is anything but, taking in Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup and Champions League titles.
