roberto carlos is a rubbish defender imho. he's only useful as a wingback who spends more time in midfield/attack than at the back

 

[mikhail]

I've never seen another full-back dominate a wing like Carlos can. It's a gift. He has his flaws, but every player does, and it shouldn't take away from the fact that he's a fantastic player.

 

[Layce Erayce]

yeah but the term defender only refers to his starting position on the field, not in his role on the team or what he is good at.

 

[mikhail]

He does a lot more defensively than is apparent LAC, because a lot of wingers have to track back considerably to try to neutralise the threat of his runs on the wing. That's effective prophilactic play.

oh yeah??!!! well the acceleration time quadrant of the metaphysical particle hyperdrive on startrek is incredibly functional as well as scintillating in its opacity.

lol what does prophilactic mean?

Same root as prophet. It means seeing what the other guy wants to do and forcing him not to do it. It's used a lot in chess strategy. Sorry. :redface:

Oh, and everyone knows that the acceleration time quadrant refers to the parabolic space-time inhibitor in Star Wars. :geek:

Oh, and some people use 'prophilactic' for contraceptive.

 

[Layce Erayce]

lol. well you make a good point, but couldnt that also be said of any other attacking player?

 

[mikhail]

I don't think to the same extent. To quote myself from earlier in the thread, "I've never seen another full-back dominate a wing like Carlos can. It's a gift."

 

[Layce Erayce]

lol fine. ill give you that one. and the star wars thing too..chess-boy!
