"Orson, why are you smashing all those beetles?" He gave me an answer. "Smash the beetles! Smash them! Kun kun kun!"
I saw him making mistakes here n there.
I think its fitness related.
With that said , he is no Nesta & we need to field a defense of three to totally benefit from his goods.
He's obviously nothing like Nesta. He's more comfortable on the ball than Nesta. He's less skilled in defensive positioning than Nesta. He's a very different player. But he's also the best defender in modern football.
I dont see any problem with Bonucci in a 4-4-2 variation. Musacchio seems rock solid so far, the kind of old-fashioned skirmisher who would compliment Bonucci very well. Can't wait to see them together.
sergio ramos
sergio ramos
Nah Sergio is second.
nope, undisputed #1
Bonucci has been a part of quite a few embarrassing losses at the biggest stage for me to consider him #1

Better at distributing/long passes...probably...
but no one is more comfortable in his own box under pressure than Nesta. Nobody is.
No way in hell is Ramos better than Maldini or Nesta. That was a whole different caliber that is now long gone.
Who said Ramos is better than Maldini or Nesta?
I thought the argument is who is the best defender of the modern (current) generation.
Had 1-2 errors when defending, I'm sure he will get use to 4 man defense in about after 10 matches.
Bonucci and Musacchio had the most passes completed in Serie A this round. 90% of those passes were to each other though
