Terry had a stroke rate that would have him getting games up front for Utd

Strike rate even, you’d have to ask Bridges girlfriend about stroke rate.

Great minds DJ

The stroke rate in which John Terry had would be well know to Wayne Bridge and his wife.

At the end of this season Van Dijk would be top 3 CB in the league for about 10 seasons, most of that being the best CB in the world as well.

I think the only time he wasn't the top CB in the league was when Spurs had the partnership of Aldeweireld and Vertonghen...back then we was with Southampton.

Even currently his performances are at pre-injury levels.

I genuinely don't get this longevity stuff

Dias won the player of the year one year too.

doesnt get the same credit from nostalgia merchants cause wasnt around during prime barclays

I know personal awards are a very limited indicator, but only 9 defenders have ever been voted into top 3 of the Ballon D'or:

• Giacinto Facchetti
• Franz Beckenbauer
• Bobby Moore
• Franco Baresi
• Andreas Brehme
• Paulo Maldini
• Matthias Sammer
• Roberto Carlos
• Fabio Cannavaro
• Virgil Van Dijk

There are some absolutely legendary defenders in that list. And Roberto Carlos.

Anyone who says VVD is using recency bias. He’s a world class CB and one of the best of the current generation in his peak but there are plenty of CBs that were much better defenders than him.

Plenty and much better?

Go on I’ll bite, name plenty “much better” defenders than VVD.
