Rio Ferdinand

Wasn't exactly a bad generation for English CBs.

Agree, the one area in football where England are/were really among the top nations as they should be, only clearly superior country for me was Italy if we're talking late 90s/early 2000s.

Thinking about Woodgate made me remember some of the strange transfers Real made in the past, the likes of Gravesen and Julien ******* Faubert played there in the last five to ten years FFS.

Gravesen is a legend The talentless Pepe.

The Faubert transfer was ****ing hilarious. Not good enough for West Ham? Goes to Real Madrid. The logic is just.. I don't even.

Woodgate was class tbf, I wouldn't say he's far off from Terry or Rio. I wouldn't put him alongside them either, though.

He's probably around the level of someone like Carvalho when he was at Chelsea.

Carvalho was in a complete class of his own for me. Him and Mourinho made Terry look far better than he actually was when he arrived
