Thank you.
Really nothing I can say to that, I mean, Grosso who has never been more then decent in club level (is average for Lyon, flop in Inter, little else there), Maxwell that is nothing but solid bland above average, Lahm who is a disaster defensively (Clichy has a habit of eating up the Golden Ball winner Ronaldo to name a few), and the same Zambrotta, who plays RB, but who yourself have said is washed up for Milan, far from as dynamic.
Zambrotta at his best was easily better then Clichy without any doubt. But he hardly is now, and isnt as thunderous offensively, and makes unfamiliar defensive blunders nowadays. I mean, there is little difference between him and Jankulovski now, and I would doubt you would say Janku is better then Clichy.
Evra I would say is somewhat better, Abidal is too little of a nonfactor offensively, but is a class fullback.

No, what Clichy needs to do is get an end product, he can blitz past anyone, dribble like a winger, but his end product isnt there. He never shoots, and his crossing is just average. So the last 3rd of his game needs to be amped if he is to be a deadly fullback. Because he stops he marks well enough, runs up and down the wing in a brilliant way, but the final act is lacking.
zambrotta was really a great fullback, but you could see his decline in the amount of awful mistakes he made that lead to direct goal chances, like the error in the game italy against romania, where mutu scored ...
but at his prime he was really great ... he was some faster di livio converted into a fullback

Yeah, as said, its bit sad, he was unstoppable force with us. But nowadays, seeing a simple move by Miccoli putting him on his ass, not being able to get past simple players, or making easy mistakes like the one he did for Barca against Man U, like he was a nervous rookie, and not as he used to be, a legendary fullback.
