John Terry, a former Chelsea captain, recently ranked the greatest centre-back partnerships in Premier League history on his TikTok page. He included two Arsenal pairings in his top five: William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes, and Sol Campbell and Kolo Toure. Intriguingly, Terry placed Campbell and Toure, who were part of Arsenal's "Invincibles" team in the 2003/04 Premier League season, above the current duo of Saliba and Gabriel. The article notes that while Saliba and Gabriel formed the league's best defence last season, the 2003/04 team conceded fewer goals overall and famously went an entire Premier League season unbeaten, making a strong case for Campbell and Toure's superiority in this debate.
