Ricardo Carvalho and Aloísio - another FC Porto legend - are my all time favourite central backs. His calm demeaner under any circumstance was remarkable. Thank you for this awesome video.

Fun fact: Aloísio is Carvalho's favourite defender of all time, after Couto. "Na minha adolescência, com 13, 14 anos, gostava muito do Aloísio e do Fernando Couto. Também gostava do Ricardo Gomes do Benfica e do Mozer. Mas se tivesse de eleger um, acho que seria o Fernando Couto, e depois o Aloísio, com quem tive o prazer de jogar, com aquela sua serenidade, que mostrava no campo."

I've been a lifelong Chelsea fan and have been so spoiled by players like Terry, Carvalho, Ivanovic, Cole. Carvalho was so fricken dirty, but didn't get carded as often as you would think. He was in striker's heads. You could see it. Messed with their confidence, made them believe they were battling up against a wall. He was truly special. Imagine what Carvalho in his prime would do to this current Chelsea squad.

Primeiro de tudo parabéns pelo vídeo, está espetacular! Realmente o Ricardo Carvalho foi um dos melhores centrais que tive o prazer de ver a jogar, mas aquilo que eu mais destaco nele era a inteligência dele a jogar, um autêntico jogador de xadrez que conseguia antecipar as jogadas dos adversários com bastante facilidade. Embora tivesse um constituição física "fraca" para a posição dele e para o campeonato inglês metia jogadores no bolso com uma grande facilidade. Espero um dia voltar a ver um jogador com as qualidades dele, o Gonçalo Inácio está no caminho certo, mas ainda tem que comer muita sopinha.

Back when i used to watch him when i was young he was just powerful in the field, his vision, timing and elegance in defending was outmatched, he owned the field like it's his predetorial territory, he was sophisticated and very complex to understand whether he'll tackle or not, and my father and i used to bet 10$ if anybody gets past him, he was truly underrated, i could even put him with the likes of Nesta and Maldini, but now, many haven't talked about him yet he was just spectacular, now he has a fifa card and it's simply outstanding especially the achievements and awards he gained throughout his journey and alone, he was one of my favourite defenders in the old era, i even named him Carvalho The Dominator
