Cristian Chivu
Romanian international captain and mainstay of the Eastern European nation's national side, Cristian Chivu is a well respected Serie A performer after spending four years in the Italian capital playing for AS Roma.
Comfortable at left back or in the centre of defence, Chivu has another string to his bow as his great left foot can deliver precision set pieces from corners or free kicks and he has built a reputation at former clubs Ajax and Roma for being a world class free kick specialist as well as one of the Italian league's top defenders.
