Right Back – Bacary Sagna

Defensively, I feel Sagna is the best option at right-back. Pablo Zabaleta is just as good defensively, but Sagna has been able to provide another option in defense. He has valuable leadership in the Champions League which also helps his cause, and has been playing well in limited chances. Overall, I am a fan of his play with the ball and he is always able to get involved in the team’s link-up play.
