Danny Higginbotham. We stuck him up front once whilst chasing a game, can't remember which one. Wonderful, wonderful times, and what a way we've come. | | | |

for clarity we are looking for recognised players in either position that would sometimes start matches in the other position.
Going up top for the last 10 doesnt count and nor do versatile midfielders | |

Emmanuel-Thomas played in the Carling Cup for Arsenal at centre half and spent the majority of his youth career at the back. |  | | |
| Tommy Smith..... on 10:46 - Aug 14 with 3785 views | Bloots |
...played centre back for us and Liverpool.
He also played right back for Huddersfield and Stoke.
Played centre forward (and right wing) for loads of clubs, mainly Watford but also Derby, QPR, Portsmouth and Cardiff, amongst others.
Truly versatile. |  |

I don't remember Sol Campbell ever starting upfront in a competitive game, I think I remember reading that in the youths he was a striker though. | | | |

I watched him break though for spurs in the Makita tournament and bag a brace as striker
This is from memory
Fair point though we might have to cross him off | |

I'm off to golf in a minute so someone else will have to take over policing this thread to stop rogue entries.

You just feel silly for not giving him at least an honourable mention.
In fairness, he didn't chop and change between the positions over a season. | |
