Emlyn hughes's nickname is "Crazy Horse Song and Dance Show". His career is like a tireless racing horse, always running and fighting. 1In September, 964, 17-year-old Hughes signed his first professional contract with Blackpool. After playing for Blackpool for less than two years and playing 28 league games, bill shankly brought him to Liverpool. He played at Anfield for more than 65,438+02 seasons, made 657 appearances for the "Red Army" and won numerous honors: three Champions League titles, two UEFA Cup titles, four league titles and one FA Cup title. ...

Unfortunately, although emlyn Hughes was a star in Liverpool, he was unlucky in England and never helped the team win an international championship. 1969165438+10 On October 5th, in Amsterdam, England beat the Netherlands by10, and emlyn hughes made his first appearance for the national team. On May 24th 1980, England beat Scotland 2-0 at Hampton Park Stadium in Glasgow, and Hughes came off the bench in the 7th1minute, completing the final battle of the national team.

Bob paisley, a famous head coach in the history of Liverpool, recalled: "He (Hughes) was a tough guy, and sometimes he was armed to the teeth." In fact, Hughes, as the captain of Liverpool, performed well in the defense line, which was one of the important reasons why the "Red Army" was invincible in the 1970s. Hughes has played left-back, center-back, avant-garde and other positions, but the center-back position is the best.

In 20041October 9, 165438, Hughes died of a brain tumor at the age of 57. He is one of the greatest players in English football history, and was awarded to order of the british empire in 1980.

Tony Adams

Tony Adams

Birth:1966 65438+1October 10/ Height: 1.9 1m/ Weight: 83kg/ Team: Arsenal/Honor: 1994 European Cup.

Adams, though not the greatest defender in English history, is definitely the greatest defender in Arsenal's history. 1980165438+1October, 14-year-old Adams entered Arsenal Football School; 1April 1983, promoted to the first team of Arsenal; In the same year165438+1October 5th, 17-year-old Adams played for Arsenal for the first time in the first division against Sunderland, the "black cat". In that match, Arsenal won 2:/kloc-0:. 1On New Year's Day in 1988, Adams, who was only 2 1 year old, replaced the old international Sansom as the new captain of Arsenal.

In this way, Adams selflessly dedicated his youth to Arsenal. 19, he participated in 673 games, won the top league title for the team for 4 times, won the FA Cup for 3 times (1993, 1998, 2002) and won the English League Cup for 2 times (1987).

As the best defender in England in the 1990s, Adams devoted his loyalty to Arsenal and England. He has an innate leadership style, never giving up, never giving up. This tenacious character and indomitable fighting spirit made him the backbone of Arsenal. He may not be the best player, but his domineering and self-confidence make him the absolute leader of the defense. Adams is a typical fighting defender, with fierce tackle, accurate feet, rich experience, outstanding air defense ability, good sense of position replacement and coordinated command ability. Adams is deeply loved by Arsenal fans and is called "Mr. Arsenal". In Graham's time, Arsenal's "Five Old Guards" once enjoyed a high reputation, and Adams was the core of the "Five Old Guards". This famous defensive system remained at a very high level until Wenger's time.

From 1987 to 2002, Adams made 66 appearances for England and scored 5 goals. Because England missed the 1994 World Cup, which was his golden age, Adams only participated in the 1998 World Cup, which is a pity for a famous defender. From 65438 to 0999, Adams was awarded the MBE Medal of Honor by the British royal family. He officially retired in 2002 and went to University of London to study sports psychology. Wei Kangbi became the head coach of the third-level team in early 2004 and took the first step in his career as a professional coach.

Sol Campbell

Sol Campbell

Birth:1September 1974 18/ Height: 1.88m/ Weight: 83kg/ Team: Tottenham, Arsenal/Honor: 2002 Premier League champion.

Campbell's figure determines that he is an excellent defender. 1990, 16-year-old Campbell was recruited into the training class by Tottenham Hotspur, and he officially played for Tottenham Hotspur in the 1992- 1993 season. Campbell's first professional league opponent was Chelsea, and he scored a goal in the London derby. 1In February, 1995, Campbell was first selected for the England team, but his official appearance was in the warm-up match against Hungary a year later, when England beat the opponent 3-0. Subsequently, he represented England in the 1996 European Cup and made one appearance. Since then, he has gradually become the main central defender of the England team and performed very well in the 1998 World Cup.

On July 3rd, 200012000, Campbell joined Arsenal as a free agent after playing 246 league games for Tottenham Hotspur. He was criticized for a time and was regarded as a "traitor" by Tottenham fans. At Arsenal, Campbell successfully replaced Adams as the core of defense and became an indispensable figure in England. Campbell scored his first World Cup goal against Sweden in the 2002 World Cup. Arsenal were left behind by their old rival Chelsea last season because Campbell was plagued by injuries for most of the time.

Campbell has been the backbone of England's defense since Adams retired from the national team. He has stable performance, strong body, fast starting speed, broad vision, good passing and blocking skills, and his ability to control high-altitude balls is particularly outstanding. Eriksson has always trusted Campbell. Although his position has been strongly impacted by Terry at present, the Swede still insists that Campbell will still be a member of the main team as long as he recovers. He firmly believes that the 365,438+0-year-old veteran will still perform brilliantly.

Rio Ferdinand

Rio Ferdinand

Birth:1978165438+1October 7th/Height: 1.88m/ Weight: 86kg/ Team: West Ham United, Leeds United, Manchester United/Honor: 2003 Premier League champion.

Ferdinand never played as a defender when he was a child. At that time, he was a center and often scored as high as double digits in a season. Later, he also played in midfield. Perhaps, his excellent ball control ability was exercised at that time. Leo/Kloc-joined West Ham United at the age of 0/6, and/Kloc-0 made his first appearance for West Ham United on October 25th. 20001October 26th, 165438+ Rio Ferdinand moved to Leeds United for180,000, which made the team famous in English football and performed well in the Champions League. In the 2002 World Cup in Korea and Japan, Ferdinand and Campbell joined hands to form an excellent defense for England. After the World Cup, he moved to Manchester United at a sky-high price of 30 million pounds.

Ferguson established a new defensive system with Ferdinand as the core. In 2003, Manchester United won the Premier League title, and Ferdinand contributed a lot. Manchester United has also become the team with the fewest goals conceded in the Premier League this season. Although in the 2003-2004 season, he was suspended for eight months because of the absence of drug testing, but he quickly recovered his state after his comeback. Now, Ferdinand has become the main central defender of Manchester United and England. In the case of Campbell's injury, his steady play made Eriksson feel a lot at ease.

Ferdinand's excellent footwork and air combat ability are the key to becoming a world-class defender. Many times, he can take the ball from the backcourt and go straight to the frontcourt, passing the good ball to his teammates. His height ensures Manchester United's absolute air superiority in dealing with opponents flying at high altitude. Ferdinand can always get the first point and solve the danger in front of the door in time, no matter whether the other side crosses from the side or from the backcourt. Ferdinand is reassuring in defense and a sharp weapon in attack, especially when the team kicks the corner. Even if his fight for the top of the restricted area can't directly form a shot, he can create a second chance for his teammates. Gary Neville, a famous Manchester United right-back, praised his teammates as "the best central defender in British history".

John Terry

John Terry

Birth:1980 65438+February 7th/Height: 1.82m/ Weight: 72kg/ Team: Chelsea/Honor: 2005 Premier League champion.

Becoming the captain of Chelsea at a young age, john terry proved himself with strength, and conquered Ranieri and Mourinho successively. 1997, 17-year-old Terry entered Chelsea's youth training camp, and he started playing for Chelsea in the 1998- 1999 season. In the last weeks of the 1999-2000 season, Terry was loaned to Nottingham Forest and played in six leagues. 2000-200 1 season was the year when he established his position in the team. Made 22 appearances in the Premier League and scored 1. In the 200 1-2002 season, Terry * * * played 49 games for Chelsea, scored the winning goal in the FA Cup 1/4 finals and semi-finals, and also scored in the league and UEFA Cup. In addition, he also represented England 2 1 Youth Team in many competitions.

The 2002-2003 season was a turning point in Terry's career. He was arrested by the police for fighting and lost the opportunity to participate in international competitions. He only made 20 appearances in the league, but he contributed 3 goals. In the 2003-2004 season, Ranieri handed over the captain's armband to Terry, who made 33 appearances for the Blues and led his team to the semi-finals of the Champions League. Last season was the pinnacle of Terry's career. Mourinho continued Ranieri's choice. Terry scored 3 goals in 36 league games and1/kloc-0 scored 4 goals in the Champions League. At the end of the season, Chelsea won the League and the League Cup, and Terry was elected the best player in the Premier League.

Although Terry is the absolute core of Chelsea, his position in the national team is not stable because of Campbell and Ferdinand. If Campbell returns from injury, he is likely to remain Eriksson's first choice central defender. Actually, Terry has the advantages of Campbell and Ferdinand. He has strong body, fast starting speed and strong explosive power, and he is also excellent in blocking and stealing in man-to-man defense. And compared with Campbell and Ferdinand, Terry has a better scoring ability on offense. His header in the penalty area grabbed the goal and saved Chelsea many times last season. Mourinho said of Ai Jiang: "john terry is the best defender in the world, because he has been at this level since the first minute I came to Chelsea."
