The College Dropout Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 (edited) Didn't dominate Serie A did they? That's the one criticism of Carlo. Not enough league titles. Only (I know) the 5 league titles across about 15 seasons at elite clubs. I know all the lads had fun playing for him though.

He’s had a quietly brilliant season as well. He’s underrated internationally because every performance in an England shirt has been poor. Looks like a player who can’t translate club form so far Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 (edited) Colin Hendry. There was a 3/4 year spell at the start of the Premier League era where he was the best CB in the league but he never gets mentioned in the conversation of ‘Best Premier League centre-backs’. That was at a time he was playing Fowler, Cole, Collymore, Ferdinand, Wright, Hughes etc and stood up to it all.

Apparently we wanted him and Flowers the season we missed out on the title, with those two we win it IMO. In fact Blackburn had such an underrated team say compared to Man Utd back then.

Love how one of KKs criticisms was tactical awareness yet turned him into a holding midfielder and got him capped by England playing there at 30.
