Not sure how so many people can say John Humphrey when we've had Danny Mills and Luke Young.
Young played in a much better Charlton side, played his entire career (apart from 1 game) in the PL and played for England. Mills played in a Leeds side that reached the Champions league semi finals, and played for England quite a few times, including being our right back at the 2002 World cup.
How is anyone claiming Humphrey was better than either of them?
The actual question, who is the best current right back who has played for us is harder. For FIFA/Football manager type things the answer might actually be Sessegnon.
Left field the lad we released and ended up at Bournemouth?
Very left field because Jordan Zemura is a left footed left back.

I think because the others played in a better team it made it easier for them to play, if that makes sense. Humphrey was very consistent for us and he played a long while in a good palace team. I always thought he was much under rated and because he played for an unfashionable club and palarse he never really got the rewards he deserved.

I knew he was a full back but couldn't remember which side, can he play right back? Being "wrong footed" hasn't stopped us in recent seasons.

100% Humphrey the best I have seen in that position for Charlton, gutted when he left, especially as it was to that lot who play at Shithurst Park - how he didn’t play for England I will never know - excellent player
I thought Gary Rowett was excellent for us in the brief period before his injuries finished him. Rowett, Rufus, Fish and Powell should have been a brilliant back four but only half of it was ever fit.

Using the same logic Djimi Troare was our best left back. He was a Champions League winner.
Seriously though, all three were great players but JH edges it for me.

John Humphrey by a long way. Overlooked by England back in the day when he should have been at least called up by Bobby Robson.
John Humphrey for me. Had so much drive and was a major attacking threat in a team that sometimes struggled for momentum (against good opposition).
Don't know if this link will work but it shows a typical John Humphrey cross on the run and a neat header from Andy Jones. I was behind the goal that day and one of very few good days that season. Man City 1 Charlton 2 Feb 1990
He played at a time when it was always 4-4-2. Humphrey would have excelled in today’s game given his particular strengths. Would have been an excellent wing back.
