Is David Luiz the greatest defender ever?
>>140292035
>>140292035If greatness is measured by SOVL then he's definitely up there
David Luiz was surprisingly good (alongside Cahill) in that wild CL run He also has a mini revival during that Conte PL winning season More importantly he used to score some absolute screamers way more memorable than Maldini's boring consistency
I just realised David Luiz has won basically everything except the world cup And not just won, he had a starring role in some of those victories like the CL, PL and EL,
>>140292035No
>>140292250he had a starring role in his 2014 home world cup too
>>140292274kek
>>140292035No, he was awful in the national squad.Best CB is Maldini and it's not even close.
yes
>>140292253well you got the team right at least
>>140292035>Brazilians hate him after the 7-1
>>140292274Rude
>>140292035Maldini, Beckenbauer, Baresi, Roberto Carlos, Ramos, and Lahm are above him.
>>140298267your forgot the GOAT Nesta
>>140298291You are correct, my bad
one of the biggest responsible for 7x1, along with Marcelo,
>>140298469It's not his fault the macaco manager told them to play a suicide high line
>>140292035On his day he's very good, at his worst he makes maguire and mustafi look like prime van dijk
>>140292035The leader of 7-1
In the 2000s Top 10, dare i even say 5?>Van dijk>Maldini>Nesta >Cannavaro>John Terry >David luiz

No, every brazilian that was on the field when they got smashed 7-1 should hide in shame
is this thread a psyop or something? Why would he be anywhere near that discussion?
>>1402920357-1
>>140312071zoomers probably. he is not even in top 1000 defenders.
David Luiz was an enigma. He'd look like the best CB in the world one game and a League One level CB the next
>>140312173reminds me when dejan lovren called himself the best cb in the world in 2018
>>140311978>van dijk
>>140312944That dude is stupid even for a footballer >>140312573
>>140292035His defensive ability was not his main strength as much as he was able to carry the ball forward and contribute to the attack. He was also pretty good at free kicks. I think he would be best as a sweeper that carried the ball like Beckenbauer or Matthaus but that position isnt played in football anymore.Also I always remember the time he almost murdered that wolves player. Just from the sound you know something really bad happened to the guy
>>140292035Not even the best Brazilian CB to have played for Chelsea in the last 8 years
>>140313477>immediately think of Alex>last played for Chelsea in 2012>realise 8 years ago was 2016
>>140292035One of the biggest fraud in the last decade. Thiago Silva too. Our last good defender was Dedé but he fucked himself before even getting to his prime.
>>140292274The free kick against Colombia r-right?
>>140312053Not Oscar, he at least scored.
>>140292274he actually was doing pretty well until the game vs Germany, even saved Brazil against Colombia.He had some horrible moments throughout his career, but overall he was very good. Nowhere near being the greatest ever though
>>140313568>thiago silva is a fraud>unlike dedé
>>140316919ignore him it's just a 60iq favelado
>>140298184yes, and I hate him even more after he went to flanegro
>>140292035In terms of kino, maybeIn terms of defending, hell no
>>140316919Yes. Dedé had his career fucked over his injures, he was a better defender than the gay duo
>>140292035He wasn't even a good defender
>>140292035Unironically scapegoated as muh liability by seething media pundits because he made regular defenders look shit on the ball, scored kino goals and was a sovlful characterIf 7-1 hadn't happened he would have been considered GOAT
>>140313549time only goes forwardthere is no going back, anon
>>140323741He was a defender who sucked at defending
He's very good at bowling.https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x1bi614
