#6 Thiago Silva (Brazil, Paris Saint-Germain)
The Brazilian defender is 34 years old now and is an experienced campaigner both for his country and his club. The PSG Skipper has refused to let the years put a dent in his spirit, he continues to dictate the same infamous authority. His leadership qualities have come to the fore once again this season, as he has been vital for his club's success.

PSG might have exited the UEFA Champions League, but they are still favourites to retain the Ligue Un title. Silva has been integral to their style of play and has been pivotal for them at the back. The Brazilian has also scored one goal and registered one assist from his 35 appearances this season.
#5 Sol Bamba (Ivory Coast, Cardiff City)
The Ivorian has been on fine form for Cardiff City this season. Bamba turned 34 this January, yet shows no signs of stopping any time soon now.
The defender has 28 appearances for his club and has scored 4 goals so far. He also has one assist to his name in the league. Bamba is an old fashioned centre-back who loves to tackle and is quite good at it. He is also quite decent with the ball at his feet.
Bamba is another footballer who has proved that age is just a number this season and has been one of the best veterans in the game this season.
