Are you joking? You’ve got Onuoha who is a reserve boy in Man City. Then you have a defender from Liverpool, and he is Arbeloa not Carragher :shock: :lol: Where is Nesta and Maldini? Also Puyol and Zambrotta should be there as well :wink:

I wouldn't include Toure on that list - I don't think he's had a very good season and was exposed again on Sunday.

As much as I hate to say it, that utter cock Rio Ferdinand is the best defender around at the moment.

clichy - acceleration
toure - dogfighter
gallas - leadership
sagna - effective

:) ounuoha and richards are animals and arbeloa is a silky right back :wink:

Agree with most of that, Gallas and Toure have experience and never giv up while Sagna and Clichy run their socks off all game long, they all do really.

I didn't say Toure has had a bad season - I said he hasn't had a good one, I know it probably sounds like the same thing but I just don't feel he has played as well as he is capable of. He was def at fault for the second goal on Sunday.
