    Rafa uses him as a holding midfielder and who can blame him for doing that when is the best HM in the world.
    I wouldn't say he plays box-to-box for Argentina but he does have more licence to get forward and yes, he is excellent.

    It's not good because it's rude. It's good because it looks like it's good because it's rude.

      Those mentioning Ferdinand as a possible candidate His character aside (which leaves A LOT to be desired), theres no way he would break a Carra/Agger partnership. Wouldnt even make my subs bench as I rate Terry, Vidic and King all above him at centre-half.
      One Scum player, that's what i like to see

      Although it says a lot for there/our team ethic/management if they have 1 and we have 6 in a prem XI.

      We need width

          Either my eyes need testing, or you need sectioning mate.

            But attacking the ball in the air isn't his role, he's not bad at it and does it if required, but Vidic generally takes care of most of that, and Ferdinand mops up the rest with superb positional sense, athletic ability and composure.

            I will never understand the people who don't rate Ferdinand. IMO they base their opinions of the Ferdinand of pre-2002 for some reason.

              I can't believe you're real.

                Oh I rate him. I just rate him behind 4 or 5 others but he's still one of the best!

                  He plays within a unit. Agger would be shown up as well if he had to go attacking the ball in the air against target men, as happened against Drogba first time. Second time around Carra took over some of that duty and Agger took care of him when he had the ball on the ground, the unit adapted to the strengths of its personnel.

                  There are no (or there are very few) CB's that do everything to a fantastic standard.

                    IMO, the most 'all round' centre half is Gallas. I think he has it all.

                      How many defenders could make Torres look that ordinary?

                        Any update on this?

                        For me:

                        Reina

                        Richards Carra Agger Evra

                        Ronaldo Gerrard Mascher Petrov

                        Rooney Torres

                        That'd be my update.

                        No Arse or Chelsea

                          Kewell best left sided player in the Premiership? I'd say he's not even the best left sided player at LFC. Maybe not even in his house.

                            God we're fickle. EVeryone was getting well excited about him a month or two back, now he's ****? ANyway, Petrov is better and i've ammended my team accordingly.

                                I'm not fickle. I've been saying he's **** for ages. The only time I got excited about Kewell was when we initially signed him.
