Sol Campbell has argued that he deserves a knighthood for his successful football career and has expressed his bemusement as to why he keeps being 'overlooked' for the honour.

The former England international made 639 appearances in a glittering career, spanning 19 years.

He made the bulk of them at Tottenham, where he won the League Cup in 1999, but his biggest period of success came following his controversial move to bitter rivals Arsenal.

At Highbury, he won two league titles and three FA Cup trophies and was a crucial part of the 2003-04 Invincibles side, while winning 73 caps for England.
