capriccioso 2,545 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 your age should stop you suggesting players are head and shoulders above those you have never seen. And Marcel was rarely injured.I think JT might disagree with you.But the Italian duo have a World Cup medal and Terry doesn't.If I had to choose a back 4, based off seeing many of these players in the twilights of their careers:Thuram-Nesta-Cannavaro-Maldini.Terry of course has been a fantastic player but I still think he is a cut (albeit a very thin one) below those two.

capriccioso 2,545 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 What a funny typo. Raul wasn't. Zidane wasn't. But yeah, I know what you are saying.I have to admit, I dont' really like Real Madrid but they have produced some of my favourite players.Rául was just fantastic, shame he went to somewhere in the middle east. I think he still had some goals to give to Schalke.They're exceptions to the rule. Also my point wasn't that Madrid produced cunty players, it was that they had a load of players who lived a sort of playboy/non professional lifestyle. Like Ronaldo, he really let himself go physically in Spain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Ronaldo, he really let himself go physically in Spain.I never said that you implied that Madrid produced cunty players.Yet another example of good ol' cap reading things that aren't there!Here would be my backline. I'm only taking players, that I've seen extensively and they would be in their primes of course. I could say Cannavaro or Maldini but I just haven't seen that many games from them and I would just be repeating popular opinion.Ashley Cole - John Terry - Ricardo Carvalho - MaiconBAM!

I used to watch every CL fixture involving an Italian team back in those days. They always showed up a defensive masterclass. Shame Serie A has slipped, football in general was great when the Italians were on top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did watch the World Cups but I said extensively, I hardly believe watching a few CL matches and internationals counts. I'm talking week in week in watching.

Back in the good old days SBS had everything, even the Premier League . There used to be this weekly highlights show of Serie A as part of the 4 hour long TWG, hosted on SBS by Murray and that fat Italian guy, Palombo or something.

Justin Fashanu did and it killed him.Graeme la Saux wasn't even gay but he copped a lot of abuse because people thought he was.A lot of players like Philipp Lahm plead homosexuals to keep it a secret, because it creates to much drama and danger.

OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 http://www.guardian....gay-footballersBut Gomez, who has not said whether he is gay, told a German magazine that being honest about their sexuality would improve gay players' performance.I reckon Gomez is gay anyway, its all in the Marty McFly haircut.
