Five players in all time XI never actually won the European championship title.
Hard to argue against Buffon, Maldini and Pirlo.
Puyol was sh*t.
Casillas won back to back European championships keeping eight clean sheets in 12 games and making saves in two penalty shoot outs.Quote:

I disagree I think he lost pace in the end, the real weak link in the Spain defence was Pique who I think is possibly the most overrated centre back there has ever been.Quote:

Yes that guy, he's been lucky to have such great players around him, as a defender though, headless chicken.
Barca had a dodgy defence for years (defensively not the offensively), it was their weakness, the rest of their team was amazing.
