strongest defence ever

With signing of Calafiori, is this Arsenal's strongest defence ever? In the last 20 years for sure, but I think it could be even best ever.

I don’t know much about Caliafori at all, but your defence of Dixon, Adams, Campbell and Winterburn was exceptionally solid with no little skill too.

Bold on the bench too.

Your current full backs aren’t much to write home about imo.

That 4 never played together. Winterburn had gone pre-Campbell and Dixon and Adams were on their last legs and barely played.

Dixon, Adams, Bould, O'Leary, Winterburn.
Lauren, Toure, Campbell, Cole.

Really? Still two great defences.

Who you having DJ?

Dixon, Adams, Bould, Winterburn.
The current one needs to prove itself. The Invincibles had more obvious weaknesses.

The 04-05 Cherlsea back four were better


conceded 15 goals in the season...lost one game - to a penalty v City

Still a record

Saliba is already better than any of Adams, Bould and Keown imo. And yes i know he hasn't won anything yet. Saka is also better than anything we had on the right hand side during those days as well.

it was 04-05. Not to derail the thread but about 6 or 7 of those 15 were absolute screamers as well. In terms of being broken down by a team...well it hardly ever happened.
