Behind them, Piqué and Virgil van Dijk are true defensive pillars, intimidating with their height!

Compared to other positions, there are hardly any pure full-backs who are very tall and talented. Therefore, we have included players who have the lateral position as second or third preferred. Niklas Süle appears again and is the best on the list, although Jan Vertonghen deserves a mention. Star laterals are usually lower; height is not paramount for this position.
