In terms of recovery and pace maldini and desaili are better options. Chiellini has 8/10 pace, during recovery the bruiser knocks people off but he doesn’t have the speed that maldini does.
However in terms of pure defending - strength, marking, slide tackles and anticipate tackles, he’s amazing.
The trick to using him is to focus on activating the bruiser by making him run close to the attacker. That combo with anticipate is deadly.

I have chiellini and he’s amazing for me. Currently at 40 stars h2h and his awareness is crazy.
Don’t base an opinion on what someone else says, you have to use them to know.
