Bryan Robson
Durham-born Robson remains the longest-serving captain in the history of Manchester United. This service, along with his inspirational service as skipper of England, earned him the nickname Captain Marvel.
He captained England 65 times, while his goalscoring tally of 26 is only three fewer than Lampard, despite playing fewer matches for the national side.
Injuries affected his contribution—and it’s tantalising to imagine what might have been had Robson avoided such fitness problems.
