Wikipedia tells me there are four types of defender: centre back, sweeper, full back and wing back, but I’m struggling to see where any of the players I will mention in my list represent these positions.
Defending is an art, and since the Premier League’s inception in 1992 it has given us world class defenders such as Tony Adams, John Terry and Steve Bruce. These players, like so many, commanded their backlines, put their bodies on the line to block a shot and popped up with the odd goal.
Like so many wonderful things there is always a downside, this downside comes in the form of ten reckless, clumsy and talentless defenders who have somehow made in onto the world’s biggest footballing stage.

Very unfair to put Phillipe Senderos, Tomas Repka and Titus Bramble in there. In Senderos’ case, you can’t play more than 40 times for Switzerland and play for the likes of AC Milan, Arsenal and Everton if you’re one of the worst defenders in the Premier League. Repka played more than 150 times for West Ham and has won over 40 caps for the Czechs so it’s quite unfair to put include him. Bramble messes up at the back from time to time but if he’s one of the worst then why is he still playing in the Premier League with Wigan and Sunderland over the last 4 years?
