ok, since i don't have too many around me that follow the soccer, i'd like to discuss the best defenders in the world with you guys, and see who you all think are the best.
As for this season, my list would be as follows
Nesta - Started out slow due to adapting to a new team, but has really come on strong and is showing why he's the best center back in the world
Thuram - This guy, IMO, is having his best season yet. He's so solid back there it amazes me. All season. Consistent as anyone else. To me, the best RB in the world
Puyol - No, i haven't seen many games of his, maybe only 5 or 6, but i watched the world cup last year, and man, this guy is tough. He's no Thuram, but this guy is good
Javier Zanetti - Another great RB. He had a wonderful season, and his attacking is better than the above too. I enjoy watching him play. He has great determination
Maldini - After a rough season last year, he's really been consistent this year in the center.
Jap Staam - He's kept Lazio in contention and is one of the main reasons Lazio is the CL next year. Just look at what happened when they lost him against Porto (4-1 loss).
Roberto Carlos - I hate the man, but he can do it all. And has been one of the most consistent Real players this season.
