Defence
Carles Puyol
Appearances: 663
Years played: 1999-2014
A one-club man, Carles Puyol spent his entire career with the Blaugrana since joining the youth academy when he was only 17 years old. Arguably the best captain the club ever had, he piloted the team to 21 trophies during his 15-year-long tenure at Camp Nou.
Ronald Koeman
Appearances: 345
Years played: 1989-1995
The Dutch defender was one of the central figures of Barca's Dream Team. Apart from being a very skilled defender, Koeman scored an incredible 102 goals during his stay with the Catalan club, a remarkable feat for a defender. The highlight of his career was his game-winner in the European cup final at Wembley in 1992.
Dani Alves
Appearances: 414
Years played: 2008-2016
It was a tough choice for the last position in defence between Dani Alves and Joan Segarra. But I've gone with the Brazilian who is the most decorated footballer in the history with 39 trophies to his name, most of which came during his stay at Barcelona. Over the 8 seasons, Alves rampaged up and down the flank for Barca, earning him the nickname The Tarantula for his physical strength.
