Defense wins championships. We've all heard that phrase over and over again. Who could argue with it? With a solid and strong defense at your disposal it's very hard for the opposition to beat you. With all the praise strikers and midfielders get these days, BleacherReport thinks its time to show a little love to the players in world football that make defending look like its a walk in the park.
Kompany but no Pepe
Kompany!!!! Really?
One very underrated defender is Sagna I think. He won't make it in this list, but still I think he is better than he is given credit for.
