He used to be a DM, but he was terrible at it so he switched to CB.

When I've seen him at the DM position he was immense. Whenever he's been at CB he's been a liability.

When Coloccini was 24 he was terrible.
what happened to the widely acknowledged fact that Footballers are at the peak of their powers between the ages 28 and 31?

You are the one trying to compare a 29 year old with a 24 year old, which is especially flawed in the case of defenders.

I don't think he is, hba. But maybe I am completely wrong and should actually be rating coloccini.

And the point I'm making is Luiz is better than Coloccini was at his age.
I understand the age point and also there is the fact that Luiz is relatively new to English football, but I am yet to see him have a good defensive performance since he arrived. Infact, most of his performances have been an absolute shambles. He's a great 'footballer' and is very entertaining to watch, but he looks completely incapable of defending.

Like I said a long time ago, David Luiz is a liability and overrated, no one believed me then obviously, I was ridiculed, told I know nothing about football, even banned ffs, all because I saw waht other people could not. Look at pgs 15-16 if you don't believe me. I'll be expecting an apology soon.

You were right all along. Most of the rest of the forum (who apparently have first class info on all teams and players around the world - do not ask me how they do it) were wrong, and also, thanks to their strength in numbers felt the right to attack you. Has happened to me on numerous occasions.

I stand by what I said on page 15 or 16, Luiz is still a stud and at Benfica he was awesome.
I've also stated that as a DM I do think he could be really effective there.
His football skill is top class and whilst its true his defending needs work, that comes only with experience and gaining knowledge.
But playing alongside Terry or Ivanovic does not suit his style. He needs a Pique or a Vidic or a Kompany beside him, who have are either strong or pacey.
Also Chelsea's game does not suit his style atm. IMO he made the wrong choice going to Chelsea, however when the time comes to replace Terry (which may be sooner than we think) Chelsea must think of a replacement who can also compliment Luiz, because if you do that you will create a monster of a player.
