The Contenders
11 Lucio
12 Philipp Lahm Philipp Lahm is a German professional footballer who plays as a right back or defensive midfielder for Bundesliga club Bayern Munich.

No team is complete without a solid backline and this guy is the best of the best. There is a reason Bayern don't concede- this man is never caught out of position and never misses a tackle. All this and I haven't even mentioned what a threat he is going forward. What an incredible work rate! Have a team made completely of Lahm and they would be a serious threat, can't say that about many players.

13 Alessandro Nesta
14 Thiago Silva Thiago Emiliano da Silva, commonly known as Thiago Silva, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a central defender for Ligue 1 club Paris Saint-Germain and the Brazilian national team.
