Greatest Defender of all time

[Kieran. 6,317]

Roberto Carlos, L. Thuram, J. Terry

[Fulham Broadway 16,945]

Doug Rougvie or Micky Droy for me

[bombayblue™ 55]

Greatest defender of the time that I've seen would have to be Maldini

[Clevemayer 764]

sorry you#re wron, Matthäus was mainly in the same position as Beckenbauer was, a sweeper, we call it in germany Libero... the last man behind two defenders in a 3 man defending line...

even Maradonna said: "Matthäus was the best opponent I have ever played against, better than Beckenbauer or anyone else..."

Desailly

Cant Beleive no one mentioned Franco Baresi of AC Milan. Him +Maldini = WALL during the 90s

I did

Milan fans were disgusting when Maldini retired (the Ultra's) started chants like "There's only one captain = Baresi" etc.

It's hard to say who's the best.. Maybe Paolo Maldini.

[Milan 17,862]

Fabio Cannavaro - somebody I bloody admire, he was outstanding when playing for top clubs and Italy.

Baresi and Maldini = Master and Apprentice
