You could also say that busquets is barca's heartbeat or iniesta. Those 3 were all crucial for barca with each of them having their own important role to play. Iniesta was definitely the better footballer

For your question, Italians are indeed the masters of defending. Their defending style is known by the name "Catenaccio," which means "door-bolt," they always produced great defenders , some that you should react to besides the GOAT Maldini , there is Nesta , Baresi , Cannavaro , scirea ,Costacurta to name a few , there was a period in late 80s early 90s when Ac Milan had the greatest backline in history .and btw this video is not a matter of facts but just the opinion of the guy who made it , because nobody really argues against Maldini being either the greatest CB or Left-back although everyone appreciates Carlos as well .

Maldini played a lot of his long career not as a cb, nesta also didn't always play at CB but he is there that he became famous really, and if he wasn't in the same team as maldini, a lot more people would argue for him being in the conversation for sure, also......there are so many players that are better than Ramos as CB is insane, i could list you soo many, the only thing (which is a great thing to have of course) that Ramos has that most other players that were better than him don't have, are the thropies. Beckenbauer definitely has to be in the conversation, but once again, he was a CB, but a really weird one, and he also played tons of matches not as a CB at all, but of course he has to be in the conversation, he is the only other defender to have won a Balon D'Or besides Cannavaro.

Centre backs are difficult. You cld put in alot of pairings. There’s Maldini, Pique, Ramos etc. It comes down to preference really. All of them have a case. For me tho my pairing is Maldini and Ramos (who is imo the best modern era 2-way centre back who can defend and score, plus aggression, physicality, pace, leadership and trophies to back it up etc.) All time list are never concrete. Bcoz u can make 10 diff lists with 110 diff players in the first XII. The funny thing about the list is that Cristiano genuinely cld go in both Left wing and Striker. People forget he played left wing in his first decade and striker in the next. His goals after 30yo alone is more than alot of Legends in all their career. Crazy to think about it.

Also, how will he not put Maldini there, not even mention him as a center back? He mentions Nesta but not Maldini? one of the, if not the best center back of all time... Then he chooses Xavi for the midfield... He was world class but what about Sergio Busquets? He was far better than Xavi... I respect his other choices in the other positions but these?
