puyol is one of the best defenders in the world. how can you say that pique is better than puyol. Did anybody watch the last El Classico. Puyol saved Barcelona that match. He is one of the best.
Rio, Vidic, Terry and croatian joe simunic yeah baby.

@Kolo, Abubakar “Pique, Vidic and so on are young players enjoying their prime time and cannot be compared with Terry and other aging players.”
Vidic is 28 years old, and is playing his best at this age. Terry is far away from the best, he WAS the best, maybe year or two ago, but is doing nothing great now. If he was the best, he would have won the Award for the best defender in the Premiership last season. VIDIC simply inviolable at the moment, so dedicated, strong and powerful!

John Terry best centre back in the world, he has the best leadership qualities, something a true leader needs and he is such as soldier, without the likes of Terry at chelsea, their is no way we would of one the double, got to a champions league final and to get to the semi finale last year, and to be controversially knocked out. The centre back has to

John Terry, very detestable man, not great footballing ability but if you want someone to put their body on the line hes your man! I think Skrtel will be a top player after he gets to play in the World Cup, Andrea Barzagli is now winning things at Wolfsberg, and i have a sneaky feeling Gary Cahill is gonna make an impact if he ever gets to a decent club

@Kolo: John Terry is 28, hardly over the hill! Furthermore, he is just 10 months older than Vidic who will be 28 in October.

Well all the names mentioned above are worthy of the place in the list. I would also add Brazil’s pair in the that list.

Pique is a wonderkid. “IS”, not “was”. He still has a lot to learn, just like Jonny Evans.

Jagielka is a good shout. Gallas is definitely one of the best on his day, but he is much too inconsistent.

Lescott and Jagielka were one of the best partnerships in the prem last season and they may not be well known but Jagielka made Torres shut up in all of the derbys played with liverpool and Lescott has an amazing scoring record for a defender shame he went to man city but jagielka is top class better than terry i reckon and lescott is class if not better

C’mon. Since it’s not still a partnership you may not consider it but Toure and Gallsa formed one of the best partnerships on field in the premier league.

And Marchena is no where as good as Vidic and Ferdinand. He is not even playing half the time, It’s Pique.
