    I personally never rated him much but he is a rock and an asset on set pieces.

    He is. I've said it many times before. Probably people getting ahead of themselves, which to be fair they have a right too now and then after his performances v some top teams in Europe.

    To be the best in the world, you need a lot more to your game than Vidic has. Alex, Pepe, Kompany, etc all play the same way he does and I wouldn't really call them the best in the world.

    I've noticed the modern defender now seems to be much more technical than just tackling, their scoring more goals, faster, have better dribbling abilities. Is it just me who's noticed this?

    I already said Carvalho on the first page. Still think he's the best. He has around 2 years left in him I would say.

    Then I think it will probably be Pique, unless Silva, Chiellini or Kompany beast it in next couple of years.

    Surely SAF wasn't hedging his bets on Evans being better for just the next season, which means Evans must still be a better defender.
