Vote on Prem’s finest-ever full-back: F365 disagrees with Gary Neville… | OneFootball

After Gary Neville declared a former Manchester United team-mate to be the best full-back in Premier League history, we want your view…

Neville joined Ashley Cole as the only full-backs to be among the 24 players recognised.

The ex-United captain, though, admitted he was somewhat embarrassed to be inducted ahead of an ex-team-mate who he considers to be the best full-back of the Premier League era.

“Who walked in literally in a minute after Bryan Robson presented me with the trophy? Denis Irwin,” he said on The Overlap’s Stick to Football podcast.

“Now, Denis is the best full-back I’ve ever seen by a mile. I think he’s the best full-back in Premier League history.

“And I said, ‘Denis, I’m… I actually said I’m really sorry.’”

“I can’t think of a better full-back in terms of someone who was right-footed, left-footed, could cross, could take free-kicks, could take penalties and could defend.”

That prompted Neville’s co-hosts to offer their candidates.

Roy Keane suggested that his former team-mates Irwin and Stuart Pearce, while Ian Wright offered ex-Arsenal and Chelsea star Cole as the Premier League’s finest.

Cole won the vote in the F365 office, and it was almost unanimous.
