This guy is the luckiest motherfucker on planet earth.
He used to have Chiello and Barza to save his ass and make him look like a great defender. Now he has De Ligt in there, probably one of the top 5 defenders in the world right now.

Yeah, true, i also wanted to point out longetivity ofc as one of the main factors, but at least this season it was mainly on Chiellini's injury and Buffon being a 2nd choice that basically projected Bonucci in the position of not only being the starter with most appearences for the club but also in fact being the only italian player we've had as an guaranteeed starter all season long. Which does make for a fair point aswell.
The counter should reset once a player leaves, I agree. Bonucci thinks far too highly of himself for that. He had the nerve to take Milan's armband in his first season.
