I disagree on Baresi and it is debatable on Maldini.
I agree that Nesta vs Maldini is debatable, but you haven't watched a lot of Baresi.

this Legro could be compared with defenders like Barzagli, Pavon, Loria, Siviglia, Kofour, Burdisso, Roque Junior, Ferrari etc .. :yuck:

the old Legro ( from 2003 to 2007 ) could be compared with the defenders in the Coca-Cola second division premir league .. :D

Reading such comments that put this camel along with the great Canna & mighty Nesta is unfair to these legends .. !!!
Spot on :tup:

Also Al Pacino is a legend :D

Just putting Legrottaglie in the same sentence with Nesta is a mistake.

Alessandro Nesta is one of the best defenders in the history of football, and the best in the last 20 years.
I might have exaggerated with my comments. But what I meant is he is a defender that does not show off rather just tackle the ball. Doesn't show he is a tough as a rock but he is one of those elegant defenders. Thats what I meant when I was comparing him to Nesta. He is no Montero if you know what I mean.

Ofcourse Nesta in his days was ten times better than legro.

I've got your point, ZAF.

Despite the serious injury, Nesta is still Nesta. His fitness was affected and this is normal.

Nesta is probably one of the best central defenders I've seen play so far. His style and attitude are just a big plus.

Cannavaro was great, he's good now but if we're talking overall it must be Nesta ahead of Cannavaro.

I feel like I am the only one nervous when he is in...
Well I thought the same thing, I guess there's more of us.

He's not bad though, and maybe we should give him more credit for doing alright, but I can't help but feel uneasy when he's on aswell.
