Top 5 defenders of the season 2010/2011 – Rank 1 and Special Mentions
1 – Thiago Silva:
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/America-c38390 2011.
One of the reasons why http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alessandro-Nesta-c4735, Thiago Silva helped the Milan side to win the Italian Serie A.
Thiago Silva picked up an injury during the season and that is the reason why he could not perform in each and every game played by Milan. However, he appeared 33 times during the Italian Serie A and also played 5 UEFA Champions League fixtures. He mostly
missed out in the Cup matches where he only managed to appear just once.
Thiago Silva’s brilliant season can be highlighted with the fact that despite being a centre back, he only received a single yellow card throughout the season. This shows that the Brazilian star is a phenomenal defender who gets the job done without getting
a lot of bookings to his name.
Thiago Silva is a clean tackler and the Brazilian centre back helped AC Milan win the Italian Serie A first time after the 2003/2004 season.
Thiago Silva’s outstanding performance in the defence helped Milan win the Italian Serie A and that is the reason why he is ranked 1st in the defenders during the 2010/2011 season.
Special Mentions:
Other defenders who managed to impress throughout the season include the Portuguese centre back http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 in the holding midfield position by Jose Mourinho and even a team
like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 couldn’t find a way past him.
The Real Madrid full back http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-Ramos-c33096 also played as a centre back during the season. He also showed great defensive capabilities and replaced Carvalho for some time.
The English star http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nemanja-Vidic-c27550, Rio Ferdinand was exemplary. He helped Manchester United win the Premier League and also took them to the final of the UEFA Champions League, which
they eventually lost. Ferdinand was one of the best players for Manchester United on the pitch throughout the Champions League final.
The Barcelona star Eric Abidal contributed a lot to the Spanish Champions throughout the season. He helped the Catalan Giants as he replaced http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Carles-Puyol-c8331 in the centre back role. Despite being a left back for Barcelona, he showed that he can adapt well in
the centre back position as well. He partnered up with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gerard-c14664 Pique for most of the season, until he found out that he is suffering from a liver cancer.
The Manchester City centre back http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/John-Terry-c18895 was quite extraordinary for the Blues as well.
