I never said he wasnt good, on the contrary. i actually rate Rio. But for a defender these lapses of concentration could be very costly, not to mention he sits too deep for my liking.
Rio? :howler:
come on man, he's too prone to lapses of concentration, and if we're talking pace, Vidic is actually faster than Rio.
Imo Vidic, Carvalho and Terry (not on this seasons form though) are all better defenders.
Clichy was bought for 300,000 now thats a steal!!
But yeah, Vidic especially has been a shrewd signing by Fergie, imo the best centerback in the league.
care to elaborate??
Other than the few mad weeks where Clichy was as clumsy as Senderos on a bad day, he has been one of the most consistent players in the league. Imo the fact he's a much better defender than Evra gives him the slight edge.
