Virgil van Dijk

[Doc_Piptorious]

Hierro as an out and out CB then no but as a footballer with a hard guy beside him then yes. Thuram yes but I’d argue Nesta was better than him and Baresi was Baresi.

Hansen vastly underrated as was Japp Stam who was a complete CB. I also like the nasty South American’s so Roberto Ayala, Walter Samuel and the killer Paulo Montero were in my fav list. Lucio was brilliant but a level below as was Jurgen Koehler and Paul McGrath

Hierro needed a hard guy beside him? No matter how you meant that sentence the answer is still no.


Fecks sake Nev, the man scared moving trains...

Des Walker was pretty good too.

Him not being the very toughest or the most physical of an era does not mean he was not a physical sod though.

He just happened to be one with the sort of passing range and game reading ability that we saw in Alonso.

I met Hierro in a hotel in Madrid while out there on a stag weekend for a bloke called Sabre who's now big on solcial media. We lost touch*

Me and Sabre I mean, although also me and Hierro I guess, as I've not seen him since either

We should probably extend his contract

[Charly]

We should probably extend his contract

Who would we replace him with?

Be insane not to imho

[frank the tank]

Yip I was being sarcastic

Insane that we left it go to the final 10 months imo

We all think that Madrid are nailed on looking at Trent but to be honest they could do the same for Virgil on a 2 or 3 year deal imo

Bastoni.

[Irishnev]

Bastoni.

He should be brought in as well - LB/LCB hybrid
