Nesta----world class
Canna---has been(like Michael Owen)
Chiellini---decent
Grosso----average
Motta------average
Santon----decent
Zambrotta-rubbish

There's no defensive unit Italy can put out that can match Brown, Ferdinand, Terry and Ashley Cole.
It's no rocket science.

Brown- 20%
Terry- 76%
Ferdinand 41%
Ashley Cole 53%

Zambrotta- 60% (Ask CR7)-
Nesta- 85%  -
Cannavaro- 86% -
Chiellini- 80%
Santon-60%

If Micah Richard should hear the name of those German teenagers he would pick race sharpish

Watch The Italian National Team and Juve. At 36,he still reads the game better than J.T.

Chiellini is a center back and based on his performances over the last 2-3 seasons,he is @ least on par with J.T not to talk of Woodgate,Upson et al.

Rio Ferdinand is better than Nesta.

We are talking about the best 4 defenders each country can line up in a world cup final(provided everyone is fit).
Surely, England have a better defence unit. The only edge Italians have is their world class goalkeepers(Buffon, Abiatti, etc).

The Real madrid reject that won two la liga titles and was also Real madrid's best & most consistent defending during that period. Keep laughing u hia .

Absolutely I believe they do. Me and DK even had an arguement on this particular issue.

Rio is excellent.
It was Benayoun's slide-rule pass that took him out, Torres did what Carlton Cole or Rooney woulda done in the same circumstance.
He held Rio off with the ball on outside, Nothing Rio coulda done than to tackle rashly(RED CARD + PENALTY).

The Real madrid reject that won two la liga titles and was also Real madrid's best & most consistent defending during that period. Keep laughing u hia .

Rio won 3 EPL titles on a spin + 1 UCL and he's been in the PFA team for the last 3 seasons.

Absolutely I believe they do. Me and DK even had an arguement on this particular issue.

Try n educate DK.

Meanwhile, i think David Villa is the most dangerous striker in the world.
Watching Valencia n Zaragoza now, his goal was a peach of a header.

I've said it over and over again that Diaby should never help out in defence,he does more harm than good.Now we couldn't capitalise on the brutal raping of man utd by Liverpool

stop pre-ejaculating over azzuri's man, cannavaro is past his prime, FACT.

Try Luke or John of champions,united might be the defending champions of the EPL,but this united team certainly cannot defend the title successfully,so the question is this; is Arsenal going to allow the chavs to win it or we keep our feet on the pedal and clinch it this time around as we have less injury worries now than ever before

dayokanu:

Ferdinand is in his prime right? Canavaros dead body is better than Ferdinands Prime. FACT

That's a lie.

Cannavaro did nothing at club level apart from winning 2 La Liga titles.
Madrid would still have won those titles without his help as he contributed nothing to the team but woes.

He is just lucky to be an Italian, playing ahead of probably the best goalkeeper in this generation and playing with 3 other world class defenders.
Ferdinand woulda achieved the same or more if he was an Italian as well in the 2006 world cup tournament.

I don't think Cannavaro woulda won the World Cup for England if he was English with David James in goal.

U are a tall dreamer. . . . .
I cannot believe anyone still expects Arsenal to win the EPL in this current climate.

United's biggest worry is Chelsea.
Man City will get there before Arsenal.

^^^ Misinformation.

In 2006, Cannavaro was the rock in the heart of the Italian defence. He didnt bag a single yellow I think and Buffon was on holidays throughout.

Italy conceded 2 goals one an own goal and the other a penalty.

Mention the defenders in the 2006 Italian WC winning team.

Pls don't ever say that again, cannavaro was the best and most consistent player of germany 2006 WC FACT, only Zidane came

close to matching his excellent performance, I have never seen a defender after Baresi dominate a WC like he did

U are chatting poppycocks. . . . .

Cristiano Ronaldo had a better world cup tournament than Cannavaro did.
The media just overhyped Fabio's contribution and y'all bought it.
Where was he in the preceding tournament Euro 2004 where he was a bumbling simpleton?

Good players are always on point almost every time they are called upon.
Cannavaro was a flash in a pan. . . . . .His role suited him cos of the way Italy are set up defensively.
Every player in Italy is a DEFENDER(mentally).

^^^ WHo were the great Italian defenders at the world cup?

Canavaro did all by himself. Thats why Buffon hardly make saves in post because Fabio covered all

Nairaland Sports Analysts and their conjectures. . . .
2006 was just 3 years ago and yet y'all memories continue to fail y'all like Naija NEPA.

Y'all can check these facts if you wish.

Italy 2-0 Ghana. . . . .Man Of The Match(Pirlo)

Italy 1-1 USA. . . . . . .Man Of The Match(Kasey Keller)

Italy 2-0 Germany. . . .Man Of The Match(Pirlo)

Italy 1-1 France. . . . . .Man Of The Match(Pirlo)
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Under normal circumstances, Pirlo should be their best player but what news would that generate?
It wasn't Pirlo's AC Milan that was in the thick of the Calciopoli in 2006 so the media passed the baton to Cannavaro to re-write history.
They had the same incident in 1982 before winning the world cup in Spain.

Fabio Cannavaro did not have a blinder in that tournament. . . . . .All na media-hyped.
Italy owe that world cup victory to Andrea Pirlo.
He did not win a single man of the match award throughout the tourney so he musta performed well in your fickle minds.

Nesta and rio are not maTE. . .

u will need 6 or 8 of Rio to compare with Nesta. . .Rio and Senderous are mate

Which Rio?

Is it Kia Rio or that shitty defender?
Rio right now is as worthless as tissue paper.

^^^ Even Kia Rio or Rio de Janeiro has more reputation.

Whether you like it or not,he won the most important award. BALLON D'OR

The dude did not put a foot wrong throughout the whole tournament while Rio as per usual had lapses in concentration. Also when Rio has over 10 superb and solid seasons in Serie A like Canna has done,get back to me.

At least we have cleared the air about y'all delusion of Canna being the heart n soul of the team.
His Ballon d'Or award is the same as the PFA award Giggsy won last season.
Ryan Giggs wouldn't even make the best 10 United players last season, never mind winning the PFA award.

All i am saying is those awards are political.
