Two of the biggest names in English football, the North London derby between Arsenal and Tottenham rarely fails to disappoint.
Accumulating 15 league titles between them, 13 of which were won by the Gunners, they've both been starved of top-flight success in recent years, with Arsenal's 2003/04 Premier League triumph the last time either side reigned supreme in England.
We take a look at some of the best players to have played for the North London clubs in the history of the Premier League in a combined XI.
GK: David Seaman
David Seaman made 325 appearances in between the sticks for Arsenal and was renowned for his imposing style and inspiring reflex saves.
While he played a reduced part in the Gunners' 2001/02 Premier League triumph, he was vital to their prior top flight success in 1997/98, keeping 13 clean sheets in 31 outings.
RB: Kyle Walker
Kyle Walker joins the XI as the first Tottenham representative in the team, undoubtedly establishing himself as one of the Premier League's greatest right-backs since breaking onto the scene with the North London club.
While many may associate Walker with his time at Manchester City, it's easy to forget that he made 183 Premier League appearances for the Lilywhites and it was at White Hart Lane where he earned his £50m price tag.
CB: Sol Campbell
Arguably the most controversial player to set foot in North London, Sol Campbell traded Tottenham for Arsenal in 2001 after making 255 Premier League appearances for the club.
As hard as it may be for Spurs fans to hear, Campbell undoubtedly enjoyed a more successful spell for the Gunners, part of the 2003/04 squad that won the top flight as Invincibles.
CB: Tony Adams
Labelled by Arsene Wenger as 'a professor of defence,' there's no disputing Tony Adams' spot in the XI.
Adams spent the entirity of his career with the Gunners, with 255 of his 658 appearances coming in the Premier League. He won the league title with Arsenal on two occasions prior to it's reformation as the Premier League, before adding another two in 1997/98 and 2001/02 to take his top flight honours tally to four.
Gabriel Magalhaes and William Saliba have been instrumental in Arsenal's near success under Mikel Arteta, but it will take a lot more than near success to even come close to earning a spot in this combined XI.
LB: Ashley Cole
While many positions in this team can be contested, having Ashley Cole in the XI is a non-negotiable.
While he has his critics on the red side of North London after making the controversial switch from Arsenal to Chelsea in 2006, he left behind an impressive legacy at Highbury, winning the Premier League twice and the FA Cup on three occasions.
A tenacious left-back with unrivalled defensive capabilities, Cole was the complete package.
RM: Bukayo Saka
Etching his name into the combined XI after making his Arsenal debut in 2018, Bukayo Saka has been a revelation for the club.
While nostalgia bias probably puts Marc Overmars or Robert Pires in the side for some, people often forget where the Gunners were before the emergence of the Hale End star.
He boasts an outstanding record of 114 goal contributions in 218 Premier League games.
CM: Patrick Vieira
The heartbeat of everything Arsenal did between 1996 and 2005, Patrick Vieira simply did not have a weakness.
Physically imposing, technically brilliant and an exceptional leader, the Frenchman won the Premier League three times and the FA Cup four times during his time in North London.
His time at Arsenal came to and when joining Serie A outfit Juventus in 2005, but he did more than enough in the nine-year spell to comfortably earn a spot in this team.
CM: Luka Modric
Luka Modric enjoyed a four-year stint at Tottenham between 2008 and 2012, rapidly becoming one of the Premier League's finest midfielders and subsequently attracting the interest of European giants Real Madrid.
While his time in the Premier League was short, his qualities simply outgrew Spurs and that alone embodies the player he was. A technical magician with the ability to dictate the game with ease, the club are yet to welcome a more talented midfielder since his departure.
LM: Gareth Bale
Joining Tottenham in 2007 after making his breakthrough at Southampton, Gareth Bale combined pace with power to become one of the best left midfielders that the Premier League has seen.
The Welshman's endless qualities are epitomised by the fact that he would be comfortable playing in almost every position in this team, plying his trade on the right-wing when following in the footsteps of Modric to join Los Blancos in 2013.
While Robert Pires and Son Heung-min may count themselves unlucky not to take a place in the team, a player of Bale's skillset comes few and far between.
ST: Harry Kane
Ranking second in the list for the most goals in Premier League history, Harry Kane makes a strong case for being the most complete centre forward to have played in the top flight.
Kane scored 213 goals in 317 Premier League appearances for Spurs, a record that unsurprisingly captivated the interest of Bayern Munich.
A return to the Premier League remains on the cards, with a supposed £56.7m release clause active in his contract at the end of the 2025/26 term.
ST: Thierry Henry
Hailed by many as the greatest player in Premier League history, Thierry Henry never failed to amaze spectators.
A prolific goalscorer who possessed every technical attribute you could imagine, the Frenchman was central to Arsenal's success in the early 2000s.
After notching 174 goals in 254 league appearances, he returned in 2012 for one last dance, adding one more goal in four appearances.
