[King]

There might be a minor mistake in this review, hopefully intentional.

Great centre backs are strong, good in the air and will marshall the defence with authority. Examples of this include Chelsea's John Terry, France's Marcel Desailly and Wigan's Titus Bramble. These players rarely make mistakes and are regularly required to put their head where others put their feet or don't even put them.

:rofl:

Have you read his story on attacking midfielders?
"Attacking midfielders can be many types of different players, with some being primarily skilful like Darren Fletcher, while others rely on speed of thought like Barry Venison."

Someone's clearly taking the piss with this one. What next? Prolific strikers like Gary Doherty?

:lol: Jesus, I'm wiping tears from my eyes, here. That's brilliant.

Ryan Giggs, Lionel Messi and John Salako. What makes these left midfielders so great and how many major trophies have they won?

The main aim of the right midfielder is to beat the opponent and deliver crosses or through-balls to create goal-scoring opportunities. Some of the best in history have included Stanley Matthews, Jairzinho and Eddie McGoldrick. Their speed, skill and ability to create chances from nothing helped their teams to greatness.

Palace fan, per chance?

"Since I began watching the game, there have been enough decent left midfielders to fill every team in the football league."

What on earth does that mean? The mind boggles.

It reminds me of the film 'Mike Bassett England Manager" where they have a new training facility, and one of the new excersices involved recreated 3 legends of the Sport. They had Pele, Maradona and Mark Lawrenson as the 3 legends, because they run out of money after Pele and Marodona.

Titus Bramble is actually having a decent season this season. Obviously not one of the best centre backs ever, but he's cut the worst of his mistakes out of his game now.
