Why do manure fans genuinely r8 Rio over Terry? >UEFA Defender

inb4 the inevitable salty "carried by Gallas/Carvalho/Alex" comments as if those players didn't benefit equally from being besides JT.

because he was a much better player

even people that hate that scummy team can admit that

How was he a better player?

All Rio had over Terry was pace

He was unironically a better player only people who will say he wasn't are Chelsea fans and people who started watching football in the past 5 years

Terry is le typical brave english last ditch tackles wears his heart on his sleeve top lad

Rio had more positional awareness and was a much better passer of the ball.

I really don't know how Vidic got in the Fifapro teams over Rio, I liked him but he was never the better player. Seems more like these teams are based off feeling of what the best defener should be (tough, slow, 'leader') than on whose actually the best

who gives a fucking shit about these you imbecile?

nice list of voting competitions terry has won there
whats the actual trophy count?
if terry has more trophies then hes the better player
if they have the same then can argue terry is better because of the voting results

Ferdinand

so ferdinand has more prem titles but terry has more overall thanks to fa cup wins

terrys a better player overall then.
why list those bullshit player of the year things as reasons why someones better when you have actual proof

>>74742360

You forgot:

>FA Cup x5 (most likely 6)

>>74741615

That's not exactly the best way to argue for Terry, but he is definitely the better player between the two of them.

Terry was the GOAT at last ditch tackles and is much better than Ferdinand in the box, scoring 40 fucking goals. Rio has, what, 7 goals? LMAO'ing at your "le better ball passer" meme.

>judging a CB by how many goals they scored
>judging a CB for their last ditch tackles, showing how positionally shite they are to let a player run past them

>>74742432
>player A is better than player B because of team achievments

This is worse than using individual awards to rate players
