under ancelotti tudor was the best central defender in the country. thats no exaggeration.
he had everything, strength, height, strong tackle, decent pace and so on.
then lippi though he was zidane and played him in midfield. the old weed in the cigars again.
if we actually play him in defense when hes fit hell regain fitness. when you come back from an injury youre not supposed to sit on the bench for 3 months.
PRIME EXAMPLE: against lazio. tudors fit. instead of giving him a chance, we play iuliano, who had a good game. but tudor at his best is better then iuliano at his best. hes simply one of our best defenders if given the chance.

BTW....when he is fit.....he is better than any our transfer target this season(defense)!
