    3-2-5 he's a shoe in ;)

    He's the definitive left back though.

    If we're playing two all round CB's instead of a stopper/libero combo... yes, I'd have him in the middle.

    Are we making an XI and a SQUAD?

    Taking both Maldini and Facchetti resolves our dilemma ;)

    Denis Irwin- Both footed, hard, leadership, fabulous crosser of the ball, consistent. Not many right midfielders got the better of him in his day.

    If Ashley Cole is being considered then why not?

    Ashley Cole shouldn't be on the list either but even he was still better than Irwin.

    I would personally take Ashley Cole over Irwin.

    Ashley Cole was amazing in his prime.

    Yeah, probably one of best full backs in Europe in his prime.

    Yep. One of the best in his prime at the time but not a patch on players like Facchetti, Carlos and Maldini.
