Posted by Ben Chilwell, a defender for Chelsea, has listed his top five fullbacks in the history of the Premier League.
Chilwell recently ranked the five fullbacks he thinks are the best to ever play in the English Premier League.
The former Chelsea left back chose Manchester United right back Gary Neville and left back Patrice Evra as some of his favorite defenders.
In addition, he included Trent Alexander-Arnold at right back and Andy Robertson at left back, both of whom are currently playing for Liverpool.
My first fullback in the Premier League was Ashley Cole. Chilwell claimed that he has only ever had nice things to say about Ashley Cole.
The other fullback I use is Gary Neville. Won a ton of titles with Man U, including an uncountable number of Premier Leagues.
Patrice Evra is the third best fullback in the Premier League in my opinion, and that’s just because I grew up watching a lot of Manchester United games.
I’d like to make Andy Robertson my fourth fullback in the Premier League. Because I have seen him play left back for Liverpool for a while now and have come to respect him as a player.
I’ve decided that Trent Alexander-Arnold should be my fifth and final pick. What really gets me excited about him is his crossing ability, passing range, free kicks, and set pieces.
Since joining the Blues in 2020, Chilwell has made 89 appearances (in all competitions), scoring nine goals and dishing out thirteen assists.
This season, the 26-year-old has contributed to four of Chelsea’s wins in the Premier League.
