Clevemayer 764 Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 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..."
