    I remember this, I feel like he was a better defender when he was younger - one vs one anyway. I barely remember him getting beaten in his early days, but towards the end of his Celtic career (and from what I've seen of him at Arsenal) he started to regress in one vs one situations. Weird.

    Anyway to answer the OP, in recent history I'd say:

    Forster - every euro campaign
    Wilson - 2012/13
    Lustig - 2012-2016
    Wanyama - 2012/2013
    Samaras - 2012-2014
    Van Dijk - 2013-2015
    Denayer - 2014/15
    Tierney - 2015-2018
    Dembele - 2016/17
    Forrest - 2017/18
    Edouard - 2019/20

    One of the best European nights I’ve had at Parkhead, my ears were still ringing the next morning as I phoned in sick. :fear:

    Same mate, they were on a winning run in all comps before they played us as well I'm sure. Earache is a good excuse to phone in sick with to be fair :giggle1:

    Agathe vs Blackburn. Made sure Damian Duff didn't get a sniff. Also Sutton in midfield same game.

    Artur Boruc. Numerous times. Home to Man Utd, home to Spartak, and away to Villareal are the three games that stick in my mind.

    Dziekanowski V Partizan Belgrade. Was in the huns end of the ground that night, right at the front. He absolutely bullied their defence.

    Wdowczyk was an excellent defender. Very good reader of the game. Different style from what we had at that time.
