no fullback that needs protection should be considered a WC fullback IMO
He's capable of putting in superb performances but he's reliant on Zanetti

@Bhends, given that very few fullbacks are as proficient as him going forward, it's only normal he has protection no?
moratti should have taken those 25m

thats too far in the other direction...not by a long shot? theres a significant shortage of high-quality right backs out there, so I don't see how he's that far off

this
the fact that there is so few quality fullbacks in football atm means that although maicon is on the decline hes still one of the best and what he does. If you replicated the maicon situation with a CM for example, theyd be considered nowhere near WC

To be honest, this is the reason I dont think he is WC. I dont subscribe to that 23 man squad of the world thing, I think there are very few WC rightbacks. Maicon is not up there any more though.

Debuchy, Azpilicueta, PizzaSteak, Alves, Lahm, Santon, Richards, Walker, Sagna, Ivanovic, Isla, Lichtsteiner, Iraola etc etc
I could go on and on really, theres not a shortage of talent at RB infact theres lots of talent at RB.
Its at LB where the lack of talent resides......

He outperformed Alves at the Copa so if Alves is WC then surely Maicon still is?

Re: Is Maicon still a WC RB?
I always considered Maicon > Alves, and if its still the case.... I know it depends on the team as well but....it would be great to see a top form Maicon, just a monster when he is...
And just curious.... Nick is from Spain but supports PSG and Mole from France supports Newcastle?
