Key Player: John Terry

2005 PFA player of the year, John Terry is fantastic in the air and a rock at the back. His calmness on the ball and the leadership he brings to his team are qualities possessed by this phoenominal defender.

One to Watch: Ronaldinho

World Player of the year 2004, and pure genius on the ball. Ronaldinho has dazzling skills, so much talent and is a complete player. He is a defende's worst nightmare.
