I wouldn't take Kompany over Cahill, that's for sure.

 

Ok that's it!... Most retarded thing i've ever seen written on the internet. You make 4 Chan look like the home of reasonable comments!

 

Chelsea fans praising john Terry is understandable even if pretty much every other clubs fans would say kompany is the better defender, (notice how the only other none CFC fan agrees) but i expect nothing different than club bias, it's normal... But Gary f**king Cahill? Just... Just... No!

JT was the best defender last season by some distance.

He's consistantly been brilliant over 10 years, Kompany has had 1 good season.

Cahill was absolutely immense for us last season, you obviously didn't watch him or you would be so bold to see him as an average defender.

 

There where a lot of pundits that came out and said that Kompany shouldn't have been in team of the year, because it is true he makes far to many mistakes. He's never been at the level of Nemanja Vidic or John Terry. Cahill wasn't so great against England but next to John Terry he plays even better than Terry himself, absolutely solid centre back and doesn't make anywhere near the amount of mistakes Kompany does and he certainly doesn't get turned or get beaten as easily either.

I think individually Kompany is probably better than Cahill, but that Cahill is very very good when played in our system and with Terry to lead the defensive line. Cahill did have the better season last time around though, Kompany nearly cost them the title at Anfield.

I could probably agree with that one to be honest.

 

But I would still rather have Cahill over Kompany, I think Sky have made Kompany seem like he's one of the best centre backs in the world. They have had a major fap fest since the season they first won the title, I've watched him a lot and he is nowhere near as good as some make out.

 

But as for Cahill I definitely agree, remember when we had JT missing for a month? we where really panicking at the back and Cahill wasn't playing so great at all, but when he has JT next to him he plays even better than JT. It's weird but they are a great partnership so we have that to be thankful for.

Kompany's inclusion in last seasons team of the season was widely questioned (especially at the expense of arguably last seasons best defender in the league, JT)

Cahill's inclusion was generally agreed.

Playing in the leagues best defense generally helps to back up a claim of being a good defender.

Just saying.

John Terry is a better defender than Kompany, that is indisputable.

If you cannot see the sense in that statement then there is little that can be done for you, as you know as much as my wife and she knows less than nought.

Right, you guys are insane... I mean what the actual f**k is it coming to when i player as immense as Vinny is being doubted? John Terry, do me a favour, VK was immense last year in 99% of his games. You can bring up the odd mistakes if it makes you feel better. I'm sure it would take me seconds to find a whole host of JT's f**k ups... Does that mean he's crap too?

Vinnie is the man:

God you spout w**k! Kompany was patchy as hell last season. JT was immense and quite clearly in the best defence in the league which is a fact.

Damn, Spurs signed Deandre Yedlin, one of my favorite Americans. He isn't joining up with them until next summer though.

Gary Cahill is a very overrated defender and is the product of being part of one of the best defensive systems in the world.

Terry is the co joint reason why we have one of the best defensive systems in the world. JT, Makelele and Mourinho are the reason Chelsea hold the record for least goals conceded in an English league season.

Kompany is a fine tuned David Luiz. So much ability, but liable to a mistake. Kompany makes less and is better with the ball and in the air, so is naturally a better player.

I would take Kompany ahead of Terry right now as we have to play a certain way to accommodate for Terry. Kompany would allow us more flexibility, but we might concede more.

If Kompany were playing between 2004-2010, I would laugh at the thought of him ousting Terry and Carvalho. Kompany is below those two, Vidic and Ferdinand and even Adams/Keown/Bould.

The problem Kompany has had is that he has never had a consistent partner. But part of that is his own fault. Terry has been able to make a bit of a below average player in Cahill (for league contenders standing) look like a team of the year player.

Kompany has one more level to reach until he is put up there with the very best PL defenders of all time.

Whatever you're smoking, pass me some. Kompany, like many people have mentioned, hasn't been so good lately. A couple of seasons ago he was outstanding but overall JT sh*ts on him.

Liverpool fan and will get banned for this but who cares. You guys are f**king crazy. Terry is nothing more than a good defender. Never been world class and is outpaced more often than not. If it wasnt for him you would have 2 champions league(theres a mistake for you, bigger than all kompany's combined). Kompany is a better defender than terry in his prime and much better than him now. As for gary cahill you must be having a laugh. Typical average england defender and was massively exposed at world cup. The only reason you had a good defensive record last year was because of mourinhos negative bus parking tactics and not your centre backs. You call rawk stupid? You are deluded yourselves for even comparing cahill to kompany, never mind claming hes better. Idiots. LFC !!!!! All the way. Bye

Part of the best defense ever in the Premier Lesgue and voted into the world team of the year for about six years running.

Your bin dipping blinkers shelter you from admitting JT was and is a World Class defender.

Yeah I still think Terry is more reliable and makes less mistakes, but look at my reasons.

Kompany would allow us to play in a way which Terry doesn't. Our defensive line has to be pushed back 5-10 yards further back than what we would ideally like to make sure Terry doesn't get caught out. This becomes an issue late in games where we can't break a team down. This wasn't an issue for Terry in his prime.

He is still a great player, I have been very complimentary of him, just over a league season I would rather take Kompany right now. In a one off game like a Cup final, I would rather take Terry as he is less likely to make a mistake.

What he missed a penalty?

 

How is that a defensive mistake you tool.

Thank you. How did he miss the penalty? Slip...

So at least you should get of gerrard's back. After all, like you said, a slip is not a mistake. And that has just made me realise, chelsea fans have no room to laugh at stevies slip after terry's blunder. Terry's was literally touching distance, more so than gerrard's as we still had palace and newcastle left. Oh well he wanted to be captain, leader, legend and failed miserably when he fully well knew there were better takers. HAHAHAHA

Any club would love to have Terry in their team, and the fans would love him!

To have a dipper on here claiming that Terry is average is pure comedy, then claiming Cahill was exposed at the world cup!

When they all think that Stevie Me is world class, and he was truly embarrassing at the world cup!

Cock!

Your defense of Kompany being better is the opinion of other fans?

 

Well my defense of Terry being better would simply be the statistics.

Stevie slipped after he couldn't control a 10 yard pass, thats the mistake!

You guys think Skrtel is world class, enough said.
