Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and England legend Teddy Sheringham has named his former White Hart Lane colleague Darren Anderton as one of the best players he ever played with.
Sheringham and Anderton’s Tottenham careers overlapped in between his career with Manchester United and the former suggests the midfielder was a brilliant player at White Hart Lane, and rightly idolised by Spurs fans during his twelve year stint at the North London Premier League club.
Anderton played 364 times for Tottenham between 1992 and 2004, and Sheringham believes his former teammate could easily have played in the Manchester United team that he subsequently won the Treble with in 1999.
In an exclusive interview with Sport.co.uk, the Tottenham Hotspur hero named Anderton alongside Roy Keane and Paul Gascoigne as some of the best players he played with.
Sheringham told Sport.co.uk: “I would also put Darren Anderton up there, who was absolutely fantastic.”
“He could do anything with a football.”
“A very underrated one but a player who was idolised at Spurs. He could have easily fitted in to that Manchester United team that played so well.”
