I was going to say him but he played almost as a third centre half, didn't do any offensive work so not really box-to-box.IrelandSuperman said:Amazed Makélélé's not been mentioned yet.

Makelele was a CDM, the best ever in the league. Coaches try to replicate what he brought to teams.
Not a box to box, however in his time at Chelsea he played with an absolute war-horse. Micheal Essien, what a f*cking player he was before the injuries rail roaded his career. Chelsea really did have a great side at the time.
Essien has to go on the list, the only thing he lacked was goals but all round play was part of Chelseas success.<br /><br />-- Wed Mar 26, 2014 4:16 pm --<br /><br />
I shook my head is disgust then. Must be on the WUM. The best poster at the Cafe is Pogue Mahone. When I lurk I look out for his posts, he is my level of poster hahaha.

Throughout Prem history its Vieira no doubt... But the more Yaya proves himself in the prem the greater he becomes.
Give Yaya more games and if he continues then it will be Yaya.
Imagine Vieira and Yaya in the same midfield... hahaha :)
