No way Benatia is in the top 3 CBs in the world.

But he is great player no doubt about it.

Without a doubt. IMO he's easily top 3 CBs in the world right now (to me he's actually the best).

The guy is absolutely brilliant and he's pretty much good at everything. He plays quite aggressive so I don't think I've ever seen him lose his opponent. He's great at marking, great in the air and he also has very good technique for a defender. To me that guy has everything that takes to be in any club right now.

Any team will be damn lucky to have him.

Thanks for that knowledge lets see what will happen in the next days, if roma lets him go... because he still has a contract till 2018

lol what, name me 3 who are better then.

I heard Roma has problems with FFP they might be 'forced' to sell. I've seen links that say Destro might be sold to Tottenham for 20-22mln, so dunno.

From the top of my head..

Kompany, T. Silva, Barzagli.

From the top of my head..

Kompany, T. Silva, Barzagli.

He was very good but last season he was not as good as 2 years ago (when he was better). But I can't agree with that, IMO Benatia is the best defender in Serie A at the moment.

I don't think Kompany is better too.

Benatia better than Kompany? Please, dont..

We'll see whats Benatia made of this year when Roma has some CL games..

 

[Dostoevsky]

You saying that Barzagli is better is more laughable.

Saying he's the best might be pushing it, but he has everything that it takes to be there and he's certainly top 3 right now.

 

[GarfielD]

Why is it laughable?

Barza proved himself in Europe and in the NT too. Not to mention that he is constantly playing great in Serie A in the last 3 years. I cant remember a mistake made by him. When i think about it, i cant remember a bad game by Barza too.

Benatia is great CB, but no way he is in the top 3 cb's in the world. Maybe he will be, but now he is not.

What did Kompany show in Champions League?

Two years ago Real, Dortmund and Ajax raped their defense in every single match. Last season they did better but still far from impressive when you see him. He was not even named in top 5 in CL.

So saying stuff like that makes no sense, since Kompany hasn't showed anything in Europe.

Godin on the other hand did and I'd be fine if you named him.

Benatia is great CB, but no way he is in the top 3 cb's in the world. Maybe he will be, but now he is not.

Our defense is great as a unit but individually they are not impressive. Barzagli is obviously the best choice from our trio.

I'm not saying that he's bad. We're pretty much fucked up if he doesn't recover. But IMO Benatia is a more complete defender.

Two years ago Real, Dortmund and Ajax $#@!d their defense in every single match. Last season they did better but still far from impressive when you him. He was not even named in top 5 in CL.

Kompany bosses EPL big time. Benatia bosses Serie A with us aside.

Godin is also better than Benatia.

Like I said, lets wait and see what can Benatia do in Europe.

 

[Dostoevsky]

He did. But you can't say that Benatia should prove himself in CL when Kompany has done shit there.

I actually think Godin is better. But not Kompany.

 

[GarfielD]

Well, so far he did more than Benatia did.

 

[Dostoevsky]

Yeah, going out from group stages and being humiliated by Ajax is a huge success.

He will be on pair with him till December then.

 

[GarfielD]

So let me get this straight. Kompany is bossing EPL for several years now, was playing in CL in the meantime, but Benatia is better because he was bossing last year in Serie A (with us aside btw, we owned his team big time)?

Come on.

 

[Dostoevsky]

Benatia has been amazing in Serie A for years now...

 

[Vlad]

Barzagli is still better defender. Despite his age, he's been incredibly consistent. I remember Benatia making regualar lapses towards the end of last season. Godin, Barzagli, TS, Kompany imho are all better atm. Probably could find few more.

 

[GarfielD]

Benatia has been amazing in Serie A for years now...

Not as much as Kompany was in EPL.

And please dont compare EPL with Serie A.

 

[Red]

What's even worse is that Roma bought Benatia for 7mln...

It was actually about double that when you factor in the two kids that went to Udinese.

 

[GordoDeCentral]

Without a doubt. IMO he's easily top 3 CBs in the world right now (to me he's actually the best).

Everyone apart from Roma didn't buy Benatia. Just like everyone apart from Juventus didn't buy Vidal, or Pogba, or Barzagli.

It's almost as if sometimes teams make great deals and others miss out.

we miss to be missing all the really good deal with udinese, despite us buying almost all their team

We got the best they had to offer. Quag, Pepe, Isla, and Iaquinta back in the day are/were all bonafide superstars. We really missed out on D'Agostino tho

Kompany is a sack of shit. He makes too many mistakes, and gets too many cards. Definitely a quality defender, but far from being the best.
