for all you tards out there who think lucio is a better defender than either nesta or silva here's a review of his performance v. lazio.
Lucio 5.5
Caught out of position so many times tonight that it makes me cry a little. Recklessly galloped forward and left much space for Lazio to exploit. Did well whenever he was in his own box, which was actually rare tonight, and seems to have lost his quicksilver legs as he was not very dangerous in attack either.

I know goal isn't the most reliable reference, but a rating is a rating and goal always favors players like lucio who tries to attack even when in defense... Out of position, attacking multiple times from the CB position??? Disgusting.... this is the Lucio I was always used to, never in position, never smart, just very talented and strong, and thus, to me, never among the best even though people would rant and rave about him being the best. Honestly, there was only one year where Lucio was a truly WC CB and that was last year under Mourinho bc Mou has the balls to tell Lucio to sit his ass back and actually play defense.... long story short, I will never in my life see a review with this crap written in there about Silva or Nesta I will put my bottom dollar on it... hence, both Nesta and Silva are much better than Lucio (unless Mou is his coach)
