Sol Campbell believes it will be difficult for anybody to match his unique achievement of representing England at six consecutive major international tournaments.
The Three Lions have taken part in a total of 20 major competitions since making their debut at the 1958 World Cup. However, only one man has represented England at six competitions in a row - Campbell.
The defender's first appearance at a major tournament came in 1996, when he represented his country at the European Championship in England.
He then went on to compete in the 2000 and 2004 Championships and the World Cup in 1998, 2002 and finally 2006. The 35-year-old has amassed a total of 73 senior England caps during his career.
"It will be very hard for someone to do that again," he said.
"They will have to start at the age of 20 and qualify for all the European Championships and World Cups [during their career]."
Wow... something unique indeed...
