who is the best DM/ Box to Box midfielder in Prem history?

[DaveRave18]

Mekelele edges it ahead of Viera. Awesome engine, great tackles, absolutely world class positioning and decent passing/ball retention. Loved to watch him. One regret i wish nedved played in epl. Top dog him.

 

[Stoned Rose]

The two position in the OP are different.

DM - Makele and Fernandinho

Box to Box - Vieira, Essien, Gerrard, Petit, Keane.

Yaya?

Yeah, in both lists. But better as a box to box.<br /><br />-- Fri Mar 28, 2014 9:52 pm --<br /><br />

Dennis Wise would shit on him.

Far too early to throw Fernandinho in as one of the best ever

He's bossed pretty much every game this season. It's not to early.

No one who hasn't even had a full season can be considered one of the best in their position in entire Prem history, you'll probably jinx his great start now as well.

What about Di Matteo? Always thought he was top notch.

You do know Di Matteo was a manager right?

 

[jay_mcfc]

I reckon you need plenty of goals to be considered a box-to-box player so that rules out Keane. For me it's between Yaya, Gerrard, Essien and probably my favourite Vieira.

 

[Dogtanian]

Vieira for me.

 

[david whites spike]

Went with djemba djemba but after a long hard think changed my mind to
1. Viera
2. Keane
3. Gerard
Can't think of anyone who comes close at the mo........Lampard box to box?
