    That'd explain why Lucas has been playing so much.

    Well, the only way LV doesn’t play is when he’s injured.

    I'm sure this will make the Covid hit Zidane a little harder. At least there is still Asensio and Isco.

    Van Diijk has got to be most overrated CB in history, they put in the team of the DECADE lol, guy has been good for about 2-3 seasons.

    Pique, Varane, Silva just to name a couple of CBs who have been good this decade.

    Not sure. Some people will say Chiellini or something. Either way I don't think there's so much between them. Ramos way ahead from everybody.

    You could argue that Pique was the weaker CB of Barcelona's defense during his best years.

    It's a no for me as well. Don't get me wrong, he's very good but as others have mentioned there are a few names that make it before him. I'd be curious to know the metrics used to arrive at this lineup.

    For me if you’re going to pick players for the team of the decade, said players must have been impactful for at least 6 out of 10 years.

    Replace van Dijk with Pepe and Iniesta with Casemiro and you have a good team.

    (Lahm with Dani Alves too if we’re going on actual impact in that position :sick:)

    Pepe has sort of disqualified himself from those lists with the Casquero thing. We all know that. He'll never live that one down.

    Looks like Odriozola will finally get his opportunity.

    Yeah Odrizola definitely never got an opportunity. This is definitely not a place which complained profusely about Odrizola being a defensice liability.

    Poor Odrizola.
