Correct. Christ, when you go back a few years we had Rio, Sol and Terry. The likes of Woodgate and Ledley King weren't even getting a sniff of a game yet both of those are miles better than what we have now.

Gus always said that if it hadn't been for Ledley's knees, he would never have stayed at Tottenham because Real Madrid or Barcelona would have grabbed him.

When fit, King was the best centre back England have had for years, he was a superb reader of the game. The trouble was, he was hardly ever fit

You could throw in a lack of goalkeepers too. Thinking about it, a lack of talent in all departments!
