Its still the same thing,.... Degea doesnt play well for spain, but plays well for his club

Courtois doesnt play well for Real madrid compared to Belguim.
No be Ramos fault again?

So those things you mentioned there, were you referring to his performance in Spain, United or both?

Instead of Ramos to defend and make Courtois keep clean sheet..........he will be dragging PK with Hazard and Benzema....

His useless defendiing @ the last world cup is affecting De gea career uptil now
You're still the same person that blamed the goals conceded in 2013 on De gea just to push your agenda. In your words, De gea cannot keep clean sheet. I weak

LORD.......I wish I can like the bold a million times. What a perfect explanation. Last season Van dijk attempted 38 tackles and came out with a perfect score of not being dribbled past. What Van Dijk does is ensure that he is not fully exposed by commiting recklessly, and he instead looks to stay with his man, force a decision, intercept or block the ball. This highlights his superb reading of the game and near-flawless defending. Ferdinand was similar. He used to go on many matches without committing a foul, 30+ games sometimes, because he didn't have to engage attackers physically to shut them down.
Somebody else is always doing it. Always

He is saying Vidic won 2 EPL best player, Ferdinard none...

I said, Henderson is a strong contender for EPL best (might win it) also with EPL trophy..... But that doesn't mean he is better than Gerrard.
You know there must be a best player no matter the options right? This comparison does not make sense, not the first time

2020 best player is not the same as best player of all time

A 2 time premier league player of the year couldn’t have been targeted.

Most of these conclusions you people are coming to are subjective.

What is fact is that Rio was usually RCB while Vida was usually LCB.

Both all time greats of the EPL and on the shortlist for the best EPL central defenders of all time.

There is no need to slander one in order to hype the other.
Correct

I brought in Smalling and Jones, so you can understand the point of CB division of duties and rating of defenders better.


Judging from all aspect

Ferdinand is better than Vidic

Smalling is better than Jones
This will be my last submit on this topic
The skillful ones like Torres, Vidic faced them when they're both on the pitch. The ones that are strong like Drogba, Vidic faced them too. Ferdinard was very good, paired excellently with Vidic. Just as you bring up Torres, don't forget to mention Ayegbeni. That Vidic was always ready to put himself on the line is enough reason to rate him slightly better. Same reason I'll prefer Carvalho to Terry in Chelsea. Let the organizer be organizing, we know those who are jumping in front of bullets

Wrong.

Rio played RCB mainly and Vidic played LCB mainly.

That was the major factor in terms of their division of labour.

In terms of defending Rio was more comfortable against skillful and pacy players while Vidic was more comfortable against tall and powerful players.

The major decider though was usually Rio covers right, Vida covers left.
So its either those guys naturally played on the Vidic side or he was targeted?

It's simple.

Relate it,to the question you asked earlier, u will understand.

Jones go for the tackle/block first, .... But doesnt mean he is better than Smalling.
So who is better between the two?

Ferdinand handled Torres better than Vidic did.
Liverpool Torres used to dash Vidic yellow and red cards.
It is known.
Didn't say otherwise. Only observation I made was that Vidic faced those guys more. This is known too right or I am wrong?

@bolded....you sabi ball....

Vidic just enjoy those one on one battle with strong attackers ( drogba).... Against Fernando Torres and the rest, you wont see him.

Ferdinard reads the game better, more calm, .....

The same people will say Michael Carrick is not a top defensive midfielder because he dnt jump into tackles like the rest
The game Ferdy faced Torres, he struggled. Why was Vidic the one facing the top strikers?

I'm not most of y'all who only read stories about those players..
I watched them 247 and they not infallible as what your types are portraying here......
The same vidic was terrorized by any striker who had pace and skill which was where Ferdinand came in...
Rio was Fast,agile....so he had no problems with such players....
Vidic excelled against physical players which was his forte.....
Don't let Nostalgia blind you
Nobody said anything about being infallible.

Did you watch Aiyegbeni drag Ferdy? My guess is no

What I don't understand is this weird 8pm curfew. Shey Corona get working hours ni?

Word on the street is NCDC is pretty much running out of test kits and with the results today it's become apparent that there is some truth to this.

So if you're banking on NCDC and their testing as any type of indicator, O.Y.O is your case
Swissh why are these doctors running from lassa na? Is it contagious too?
