    I was never a fan of Marcelo tbh. Maybe because he's such a diver. Alaba used to be a monster though.

    As I have mentioned - Robbo is fantastic - but he is only the best LB in the world if you are (a) a Liverpool fan unable to take the tints off OR (b) you play Gaelic football.

    It isn’t just his shooting - it’s overall ball control - short passing - hallmark of a true great.

    He is up there but needs to add finesse - better touch and any kind of a shot.

    Marcelo is in a different league. Robbo has a long way to go to get close.

    If Robbo was Brazilian then there would be no debate.
    Its like the old Billy Connolly observation with South American footballers compared to Scottish ones 😂😂

    If Robbo was Brazilian he would have better ball control AND a shot

    Listen Braveheart - yous produce the odd great like Kenny - Souness - and Law but by and large for a nation likely invented the sport the Scots are pretty shocking.

    Marcelo had a good career to be fair.

    My highlight was of him getting destroyed by Germany in that semi final 7-1 could have been much more too.

    Good going forward as you can do that at Madrid/Brazil but when it mattered in a home world cup he couldnt defend that is the job of a full back.
