One of former Coventry City star, Dion Dublin, started his career as a centre-back with Norwich City. But made his name at Cambridge United as a centre-forward. However, in his later years he showed his versatility by becoming an accomplished defender. Played as a centre-back so knew how to make them suffer when he was playing as a goal-scoring.

Imposing and dynamic, he became one of the most goal scorer in Premier League in 1997/1998, with 18 goals, alongside Michael Owen (Liverpool) and Chris Sutton (Blackburn Rovers).
