2) Carlos Alberto
One of the most celebrated defenders of the beautiful game, Carlos Alberto captained his Brazilian national team to 1970 final scoring what widely regarded as one of the greatest goals in World Cup history. He is one of the most gifted full-backs of all time.
Roberto Carlos I would say was a better player than Maldini but I can see why you put Maldini at 1…shame you couldn’t find a spot for Kenny Sansom, the 1st of the modern full backs.
