One is the best defender I ever had the pleasure of watching the other is debatably the best defender of all time, both are legends.
With Harry Maguire signing with Manchester United for £80 million my initial reaction is oh no, thats too much. Or if he’s that much what does that make Puyol? Baresi who even had the nickname Kaiser Franz a tribute to Franz Beckenbauer.
These are amongst the most skillfull defenders ever to play the game as you may imagine the resembled midfielders more than defenders. The passing ability possesed by these players more the German counterpart is what lead to the creation of the sweepr position. It is my hope that the high fees are a signal that we are set to return to a golden age of defenders…
