    Maybe even top 10. In Belgium it is between him and Eden Hazard for the best ever race.

    Top-10 ... is harder even for Kevin De Bruyne . "!



    Because old players suffer from being completely forgotten by people and a lack of appropriate footage.


    honestly I don't Know if He gets in ...



    I am one of the very very few people who saw entire seasons

    of JOhan Cruyff, Marco Van Basten, Van Hanegem, and Gullit

    in the Eredivisie and the KNVB Cup 80's,...... the main detail ... i remember from this on my mind ..always .. coming in the flash-backs on my mind

    That's why I say that Zico, Socrates,Bergkamp, Robben, De Bruyne and Falcão

    weren't technically better...than Cruyff, Gullit ..Van Basten ..Van Hanegem ....Blakenburg..Rensenbrink ....Piet Keizer ...

    like...

    the videos

    of Zico and Leandro on the internet have a lot of plays from the Carioca Championship, or Socrates from the Paulista Championship, which is the equivalent of the Eredivisie and KNVB Cup in the 80s.

    We need to be fair to all past players.

    vs



    Gullit vs Diego Maradona 's Napoli ......... Serie A calcio 1990-1991 season...


    Ac Milan was runners -up ...... 46 points vs ....... 51 ....points for greater Sampdoria




    https://www.youtube.com/shorts/sjZVN__PQTg







    dribbling past 3 players ... playing the ball in the open-space .....zone ...



    In Football Manager, "Knocks ball past opponent" is a trait for speedy players (high Pace, Acceleration, Agility, good Dribbling) who kick the ball into space ahead and outrun their marker, great for counters, wingers, and strikers, especially in direct tactics, but bad for possession-focused midfielders who need control; it's about exploiting space with speed over skill.

    What is the point of Gullit dribbling past few players?

    It’s a clown show


    This version of Pelé would score more goals than Maradona in the late 1980s Serie A


    That coked up bum is actually worse than I originally thought.

    Scoring 0.15 goals per 90 at 28 years old across an entire calendar year is completely diabolical
    His “assists” during that year aren’t fooling anyone who doesn’t want to be fooled either

    Most were set pieces and he was extremely ineffective from open play.

    Look, Carlito is learning about football. Today he discovered that there are players whose role is to build and organize plays so their teammates can score goals.
    These players are known as "playmakers"

    I have NEVER seen anybody caress a football the way he could, I have NEVER seen anybody control a football the way he could, I have NEVER seen anybody as difficult to get the ball off of, just watching him on the ball it was like it was glued to his foot. Its such a shame that there is comparatively little video of him in his prime because he was head and shoulders above everybody else, he really was a phenomenon I doubt we'd ever see again, he didn't have to train like Ronaldo, he didn't have to 'eat the right foods', the guy was a bit of a tw*t to be honest with you and actually a tub of lard - but was STILL the greatest player I've ever seen

    I thought you might like to see the following just for the laugh:-
