Their only other England international? The once-capped Lewis Cook.<\/p>\n<h2\/>\n<h2><strong>Brentford: Ivan Toney \u2013 six caps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Jordan Henderson is only one appearance from matching Toney\u2019s half-dozen as a Bee. The make up half of Brentford\u2019s contribution to England, with Billy Scott and Les Smith lining up for the Three Lions in 1936 and 1939 respectively.<\/p>\n<h2\/>\n<h2><strong>Brighton: Lewis Dunk \u2013 six caps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Dunk overtook headband-rocking centre-back Steve Foster, with only Ben White capped in the 36 years between them.<\/p>\n<h2\/>\n<h2><strong>Burnley: John Connelly \u2013 10 caps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Lancashire-born forward earned half of his 20 caps with Burnley, the other half with Manchester United in a seven-year international career. Nick Pope earned eight caps while a Claret.<\/p>\n<h2\/>\n<h2><strong>Chelsea: Frank Lampard \u2013 104 caps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Lampard won all but two of his 106 caps as a Blue, with his first two coming as a West Ham player at the start of an international career which spanned almost 15 years.<\/p>\n<p><smartframe-embed customer-id=\"6dfbdbe8ed6ff2eb8f8e8ee3c2cef8f4\" image-id=\"wennXUjETXgm\" style=\"width: 100%; display: inline-flex; max-width: 100%;\"\/><\/p>\n<h2\/>\n<h2><strong>Crystal Palace: Marc Guehi \u2013 26 caps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Guehi\u2019s record looks safe for now, with Adam Wharton likely to be picke doff by one of the big boys before he gets close.<\/p>\n<h2\/>\n<h2><strong>Everton: Jordan Pickford \u2013 81 caps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>All of the undisputed England No.1\u2019s international appearances have come while keeping Everton\u2019s goal, his debut coming shortly after his move from Sunderland in 2017.<\/p>\n<h2\/>\n<h2><strong>Fulham: Johnny Haynes \u2013 56 caps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The first Englishman to be paid \u00a3100 a week claimed all of his caps as a Cottager.

Jordan Henderson is next on 76.<\/p>\n<h2\/>\n<h2><strong>Manchester City: John Stones \u2013 77 caps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Perhaps Phil Foden might threaten Stones\u2019 place here, but <strong>the attacker is more worried about his World Cup place<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2\/>\n<h2><strong>Manchester United: Sir Bobby Charlton \u2013 106 caps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Wayne Rooney has more caps in total, and more goals, but 18 of his 120 appearances came either side of his United career, with Everton and DC United. All of Sir Bobby\u2019s haul came as a United player in a 12-year England career.<\/p>\n<p><strong>MORE: Spurs ahead of Arsenal but Man Utd still the most capped Premier League club<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2\/>\n<h2><strong>Newcastle: Alan Shearer \u2013 35 caps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Just over half of Shearer\u2019s 63 England caps came as a Magpie.

Kieron Dyer was close with 32.<\/p>\n<h2\/>\n<h2><strong>Nottingham Forest: Stuart Pearce \u2013 76 caps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Psycho is way out in front for Forest, with Des Walker his closest challenger on 47.
