empty seats

Nesta, Cannavaro, Puyol etc

Vs

Pique, Ramos, Silva etc

CBs these days seem to be judged on their ability to pass more than their reading of the game and general defensive quality

Second half!!

To be fair I havent seen a great deal from Varane to suggest he's going to be a super defender either.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

there's no super defenders in the game atm, not what id call super defenders anyway, not at the level of Alessandro Nesta and the like from a decade ago, there's a few very good one's like the Juve defenders and Diego Godin, but none who will be remembered in 30 years time
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Give it a rest. The juve defenders bottled it against Bayern. They suck.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

please bite Mex, please bite
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Your entire existence these days on this site is all about the bite. I miss the old Mex
----------------------------------------------------------------------

criticising Stones isnt looking for bites, its telling the truth, id say rating Stones is much more of a WUM than not rating him, there's only you, Mr and Mrs Stones and Martinez left, and even Bobby's wavering

Great block Fosu

shot on target from Rooney

so underrated

good defending

Rooney is so slow and seems to take an age to decide what he's gonna do with the ball. Looks like Scott Parker doing all those 360s.

In Europe Lennon would have gotten that

Rio and Vida complimented each other perfectly, i tend to prefer life on the line defenders so i'd go for Vidic... just

twelvety six

don't see why so many United fans want to bring in another CB in the summer , Blind seems very good there.
