I wouldn't have trusted a partnership of Chiellini and Milito for example. Cannavaro was good with both feet so he was great at RCB or LCB. Matreazzi sucks as a D but I wouldn't play him on Samuel's right. I think Mourinho tried it once but that was in case of emergency. I don't think I saw Samuel with Chivu in a 4-4-2 with both at CB.
bah!

let's look at what we need;
Zebina and Andrade are semi-retired and Neddy is close to it. The 3 key positions we need to fill in the summer market or even now if Secco wants to anticipate everybody is an AML, a RB and a young CB to partner Chiellini for many years.
I would pick from these players:
RB: Rafinha, Eboué, Lichtsteiner
CB: Santacroce, Subotic, Ivanovic or Alex(not that old), Mexès, Zapata
AM L: Zhirkov, D. Silva, Turan
I've never seen Mattioni play so I didn't mention him but if they say he's good then let's buy him. Would I want Corluka of course I would but I don't see those "rich" clubs selling these kind of players.
