elampiro was quick to come online to slate Shaw for failing to cover for his CBs against Wolves but he wont come to say anything today that Shaw had a man of the match performance.

Always disappearing when Shaw has a good game and re-appearing when he doesn't

raumdeuter:
To get MBE and such titles na A pence a dozen for England

Kane wey score penalties and deflection dey collect MBE

No wonder Faggotson sef collect Knight on top treble wey Luis Enrique, Pep Guardiola, Heynckes and Mourinho wey win

Lucas Hernández signed his contract yesterday afternoon - In the evening, he underwent knee surgery in a private clinic in Innsbruck. His family brought him his stuff from Madrid as he will start his rehabilitation in Munich. Lucas will not play for Atletico again [L'Équipe]

My uncle who has been suffering from arthrites on his hip joint wanted to go for total joint replacement, but was adviced that resurfacing was a better option... He is 43

Excallibur:
good day sir, please are you familiar with joint resurfacing procedure?

Oasis007:
I expect Eric Cantona to be announced soon as DoF! United must get it right this time around. If Barca could trust Abidal with the Position, I guess it won't be a bad Idea to get-in a Legend like Eric on Board as a DoF.

weedtaker:
Lol the guy just de talk go left and right

Lana1:
Welcome back.
OGS or whoever it will be will get it right. The only problem is that stupìd Board and Edd Woodward

raumdeuter:
I think I saw way more interceptions, blocks and just a few 2-3 tackles in that clip

HanksAnuku:
Interception is highly dependent on your teammates covering space as part of a system.

You cannot intercept, unless you know where your opponent is going to pass the ball...and that knowledge comes from an understanding of your own team shape, and how that would influence your opponents decision

Tackling is a function of individuality. It's a skill based duel, you versus the other guy...you're pitting your ability to win the ball against your opponents ability to evade you.

To me tackling is a better indicator of the individual ability of a defender...not any nonsense interception.

Even in your videos sef, the only time baresi was stepping up to intercept was when he had 4 or 5 defenders behind him

Ibime:
I don't buy old age story for centrebacks until you clock at least 32. A good centreback should play well till 34 sef.

HanksAnuku:
See how his entire highlight is made up of tackles.

Later Raumdeuter will come and start spouting some made up nonsense about tackles being a mistake.

chic2pimp:
I like this . Nah Ok I go dey answer everybody now. No need for any overdrawn debates when a simple "Ok" would suffice.

kingBolton:
I was just watching his clips on youtube now, he was good tecnically
I also just got to know he won the league conceding just 14 and 15 goals respectively
Italians also have the knacks of producing great defenders.

Kimbeast:
Sergio Ramos is better

Neymar1095:
There's no way he would have gotten away with a few of those tackles today . This guy would be a walking red card . The way of playing the game has changed a lot since then. He wouldn't survive in this era

raumdeuter:
Baggio thighs were on ice almost throughout the knockout stages

Signori didnt play that much in the knockouts he was subbed out vs Nigeria for Zola who got red carded

I know Albertini also had a good record in penalties and free kicks

kingBolton:
How good was he with the ball at his feet?
Saw him starting some few counters from the clip.

raumdeuter:
That day I was shocked they allowed him to take a penalty. as he was knackered and could barely walk by end of game

Unlimited22:
How about Beckenbauer and Maldini?
