[Gutierrez's Right Boot]

Best defence in all the time weve been in the Premiership records wise

this.

Best defense in a while, but not of all time in the PL

agree with that! have to say enrique may go down as one of our all time great left backs?

 

[MrToontastic]

Enrique may go down as one of our all time great left backs?

Thinking about this and who has been better? ... Beresford, Pearce, Pistone, Domi, Elliott, Bernard, Babayaro. NO TO ALL ... although I liked Beresford.

Best since Beresford anyone?

 

[DannyGooTree]

I always thought very highly of Olivier Bernard. However, I think Jose's form this season has shown he will be the better left back.

Best back 4 in my memory (baring in mind I am 17):

Hughes Woodgate Coloccini Enrique

Special mention to Dabizas and Bernard though.

 

[TheMightyToon]

Best defense in a while, but not of all time in the PL

Agreed.

Maybe if we had Woodgate in his prime, then it would be.

 

[TheLittleGeordie]

This thread is being too positve about our defences and it's forgetting the likes of Bramble, Boumsong and the other buckets of crap we've been blessed with

 

[Spiderman-Mask]

Best defence in PL history is probably

Barton/Watson
Albert
Peacock/Howey
Beresford

but that said, Simpson, Colo, Willo/Saylor, Enrique isnt far behind

 

[Howeynufc]

personally id have said

perch bramble boumsong id play these three on there own as a 3
no one could beat these three
