Neymar1095: Nothing like that. These are clean tackles. If there's anything he would struggle in modern era, it's with the tall lone strikers like Drogba, Kanoute, Benni McCarthy that we saw in the 2000s era due to the fact he does not have the height to compete aerially with them. Romario is making him look tall in this video but he was quite short. |

Barkley impressed me in CM role again today. I hope he can be consistent going forward, not shine today, flop tomorrow |

This is Terry at 24yrs getting sodomized by Shabani Nonda and later Morientes [img]http:///media/11-17-2016/69sSL3.gif[/img] This is vs Morientes in the 2004 CL semi running around aimlessly like a familiar spirit [img]http:///media/11-17-2016/M9RTfI.gif[/img] This is vs Luis Garcia in the 2005 CL semi finals which Chelsea lost.

kingBolton: He could do everything as a defender and was as good as a midfielder on the ball. He had unbelievable anticipation and acceleration, and was rarely beaten in the air because of his timing and leaping ability. Apart from the league title winning defences he played 4 major finals ( 3 champs league and 1 world cup) with his team conceding a total of 1 goal. More from the God of defending. Even Maradona had to pay tribute. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kr2xKLsKAMs?t=686 1 Like 1 Share |

pamcode: But prior to that match Chelsea just won Huddersfied 5-not and were in high spirits to get at least a draw at the Etihad. The fact that it was a humiliation makes it disappointing na; don't u think? |

Ibime: Yes not only that and Somethings he did that wouldn't even be a foul would be a red card today. Offside rule was different. The game was slower. The pitches were worse which made it easier to defend against dribblers. |

HanksAnuku: The tackle issue is not black and white. You might be making a tackle to atone for your own mistake, but the tackle might also to be to atone for your team mates mistake. Or to send a message as Vinnie Jones and Chopper Harris dem used to do back in the day. However tackles are definitely inferior to interceptions. With interceptions you have lower risk and greater reward and it suggests greater mental aptitude ( reading the game, anticipation). In that World Cup Final clip Don Franco had like 7 tackles, 7 interceptions, 5 clearances, 4 blocked shots. On one leg, unfit and not training for weeks, at 34yrs of age. |

Ibime: Apart from debilitating injuries a great CB should continue at a high level past 30. But that rule applies because Boateng and Luis are not great CBs. |
