So you didn't see Copa America, but saw Confederations cup. Just say Copa America is not a major title and let's rest.

You need to complete your internship under Dayo before you can master his Amala turning techniques. grin
See that gold cup won on the field as a starter and one of the best performer

I knew u were going to say this but everybody knows Thiago Silva wasn't Brazil's best player in that copa America, I deliberately didn't address it because a fellow Brazilian who is a defender as well was awarded the best player in that Copa america while the "great" Thiago Silva was overlooked. Why should I bother addressing that in the first place ? If his teammate is singled out and honored as the best player in the competition so I should still believe it was the “great “ Thiago Silva that delivered the trophy ? huh

Hopefully they bring their scoring shoes because that’s the only thing lacking in their game.

Since you have decided to be shifting the goal post with each reply, oya list your top 5 great defenders of last 20yrs, and the major titles they won and awarded best players of the tournaments.

From must win major title for club or country, to must be among the top 5 defenders in the last 20yrs, to he must be awarded the best player in the major tournament he won. Are you working as a gardener in a stadium? You shift posts like you do it for a living. grin

1. Well, airmark asked what I think makes a defender great and here's my response : " Well, for me I believe that aside from a CB being very good at reading the ball, very good in the air, being a good leader at the backline , making timely interceptions etc....such player must enjoy successful years with his team(either at the national level or club level by winning a major title ) and such success must be directly attributable to his footballing prowess. It is only then I consider such player as ''great"

2. Airmark carefully highlighted the part I talked about winning titles but didn’t see where I talked about such player being a major contributor to his team’ success within those periods .

3. Then he comes to drag George weah who is a former world footballer of the year , a pavel
Never who has a Balon D’or to his name among other honors and Zlatan who excelled almost everywhere he played into the conversation .

4. Do u honestly think I will continue with the conversation and be wasting my time trying to make him see what he doesn’t want to see ?

5. It is only right for me to ask him that since Pavel Nedved , George Weah are being talked about for how great they were in the eras they played , does he think Thiago Silva will be remembered and referenced as one of the top 5 defenders in the first 20 years of the 2000’s ?

6. I already got the answer I wanted from his inability to answer the polar question with yes or no .
A long read... But let me concentrate on that your bolded and number 2 paragraph.

How can Zlatan, for example, be a major contributor to a World Cup or Champions League he never won?

Since Zlatan never won a major trophy, he can NEVER be a major contributor to his team success in a major trophy win. In other words, he isn't a great player. No?

Why should Zlatan be considered a great player in the first place?

Wó...
You see world class player, great player and all. To me e no get specific definition. A very great player might meet some criteria and fall short of another.
Example, some might regard iniesta as a great player cos of his trophies and contribution to his club and country. Another might bring his stats and say he is a good player and not a great player. All these things are just opinions.
But me I believe in using the eyes and events to judge.
To me Thiago is a great player. Might be world class(or arguably not) but he's certainly a great player

His goals and major trophies across different league should make him be considered as a great player.

I'm looking at the records, the one he shares with Ronaldo and number 9 on the list. What exactly does that mean?

"I played with Chris Willock in Benfica and he told me that Chelsea has a guy that he sees who is similar to me and he told me it was Mason Mount. I see him and I like the way he plays, I like the way he touches the ball."

Ibrahimovic has not shone on the grandest of stages like the big games of UCL and World Cup, he goes missing when you expect him to shine. He is a great goalscorer but Henrique Larsson is greater than him

Chelsea tried twice to sign Jan Obak.

In 2018 they wanted him ahead of Kepa Arrizabalaga but decided not to pay his £87m release clause. They signed Kepa for £71m instead.
