Maicon Douglas Sisenando

[Harpsabu]

Are people actually comparing Maicon and Alves? Maicon was so much better it wasnt even a contest. He was an absolute beast, probably my favourite player of that era.

Not sure why he didn't go to the WC in 06 but he was definitely the starter when he was young and when he was in his best form.

Probably because Cicinho was at Real Madrid and was instantly dubbed as the next Cafu, whilst the actual Cafu had to be present as he was captain and it was his last WC.

So he had a bad couple of games against Bale? He also outran Zanetti and other players as well in Inter and broader.

I feel you guys are underrating Alves a bit too much, both were at the top of RBs, Alves even for longer I think

I atleast don't talk about longer my opinion is their peaks. Maicon's best in his career was better than Dani Alves best.

 

[K.I.]

I would argue Maicon at his best is one of the best RBs ever.

How is it "not even a contest"?

Alves is arguably one of the best right backs of ALL TIME.

An Inter forum may not be the best place to get an objective Alves vs Maicon debate is it?

 

[Harpsabu]

Alves is arguably one of the best right backs of ALL TIME.

If Maicon played at Barca during the years Alves did he'd be known as one of the best ever, not argueably. In there peaks though Maicon was so much better. But yeah as dylan said, rose tinted glasses and all that

 

[Ziyad]

Alvies only has longevity over Maicon. For me Maicon is better in everything else.

I can understand that, I love Maicon, but Maicon was only really great at Inter, while to be fair Alves was pretty good for Juve as well

Meh. He had a good half season at best and his best games were as a winger. It was the half of the season that mattered though I’ll give you that.

Happy belated 37th. Miss this guy, especially with all this talk about RBs atm

 

[Anne Marie]

I am curious to see how Cr7 in front of serious Italian defense setting. Alves was not that explosive Alves in Barca while he was here.

 

[Puma]

I was watching some highlights of Maicon a few nights ago with complete wonder. The two words I said aloud while I was watching was "Fuckn beast!"

I too am curious to see how Cunt 7 goes in Serie A.

[Il Drago]

My favourite is his goal against Juve in 2010. Perhaps one of the reasons we're so harsh with D'Ambrosio is because we were so spoiled for years with right backs. First Zanetti and then Maicon. It's tough accepting decent after witnessing world class for years.

 

[dax21]

That celebration against Milan, goddamn

 

[Shark]

Didn't he score two own goals in two successive games sometime in 2006 or 2007? I don't know whether my memory is deceiving me but I can't find anything on youtube.

 

[K.I.]

To me he is a great transfer,i have seen maicon alot of times and he is actually one of the best right backs after javier along with miguel,he defends and attacks pretty well and has good dribbling and also good crosses,i think he will be used alot since he can also play as a right back,a wing back or as a right midfielder,welcome to inter maicon.

JULY 06 prediction ON POINT!
