The match he's talking about is the only time Giggs, Keane, Scholes, Ronaldo, Rooney and Van Nistelrooy started together. And they couldn't score. Not a bad front 6 but that Milan defence was incredible.
@@wolfswinkel8906 Legendary players, but not exactly a legendary team. It was 2004-05, one of Fergie's few trophyless seasons, although to be fair we really should've taken home the FA Cup that season after practically battering Arsenal for a full 120 mins. But no doubt this was a lull in between greater Man Utd teams.
@@davidlogan8905 Yeah Cristiano and Rooney were still young and learning, put their 07/08 versions on that team with these other man dem and United wins imo. Still stung until the final though. Kinda ashamed now I was supporting Liverpool lol. What a final though.
Italian defense in the early 2000s was on an absurdely different level. It was already difficult to get rid of Gattuso. Once you let him behind, you had to deal with Cannavaro, Nesta and Maldini. But even if you managed to get past them, you would find yourself facing no one less than Buffon. It's ridiculous, when you think about it.
90s even tougher. 80s it will be good you stay not injured after the match. 90s is the stage that fifa need to change rules to help strikers. 00s actually already start going downhill.

@@samdefore2692 yea is true against australia it was a big dive. The penalty France get in the final was a dive too at it could cost us the trophy.......

Totti playing with one leg etc etc. We beat Germany in the semifinal with 4 forward in the extra time. 12 goals scored 2 goals conceded. Since 2006 Italy is different. It improved is game in attack.

♫♫ football world already mention them as invincible. but that was that Sacchi side who won champion back to back. Madrid did it too, winning UCL 3 times a row, but still no one call them as the invincible. Ajax did it too, three times a row in the old model of champion league, and there are two other team (I forget what team it is, may be Bayern). But sacchi's side considered as the invicible and managed to mark that decade as theirs ♫♫
He's a true professionist, a real champion. So amazing the respect that he has for his fellow competitors. I really liked the applause when he named Pirlo. The Maestro is somenthing special.
@@TheProbewizard not really, he's solidified as one of the best midfielders of all time, that's not up for debate and it won't change regardless of what kind of disaster could happen at Juventus.
The also had the hound, that would chase down EVERYTHING Massimo Ambrossini.. He wouldn't stop chasing down everything. They often put him on when they were protecting a lead
And they could substitute one of them for Serginho, in case of having to play more offensive. This left back (former leftwing midfielder) was so fast I was under the impression TV was playing at 2X speed.
All those great footballers. But the football was friggin boring. The 2003 CL final Milan-Juve was the worst match ever. With the here named big shots in 2005, against PSV eindhovn Milan were lucky to reach the final. In the 2nd semi final game PSV was a lot better with 3 goals, but Milan had a counter goal in the 90+1st minute. (but that is not enough against Italians , as Ruud mentions here ..)
Bravo Ganjar !!! Very correct you were !!! Nice to see that !!! Bravo !!! Inter had a good era too and thsart was amaizing 1998 with original Ronaldo ... or 2010 ! I love correct comments for another side ! Bravo and Grazie !!! But let me say : FORZA MILAN !!! ❤❤🖤🖤❤❤🖤🖤
Seedorf is one of the most powerfull atacking midfielders of all time. It was impossible to take a ball from him, what a legs he had, Mirko cro cop legs 😂😂💪🏻💪🏻
Ya but maldini was still unbelievable at that age he won it 2 years later with Milan again at like 39.

@@jericho9653 It's hard to stay great unless you're in Real or Barca situation, or more extreme : Bayern. Liverpool was a force back in 70s and 80s (cmiiw) and see what happened. They won continental cups in 2001&2005 but couldn't get past Arsenal and United.
@@iganpparamarta8813 but Milan were great for more than just the 2000s, they won it twice in the 80s and got to another 3 finals in a row in the 90s. They won it twice in the 60s and again I think in the 70s. Your saying Madrid or barca situation but Madrid had not reached a European cup final for 30 years until they won it again in 98 United the same until they won it in 99 and people always saying now how Barcelona have gone in decline but barca are not a traditionally steeped European club as Madrid Milan or liverpool are or Munich. All those teams were always winning in Europe through every decade where ad barca won it for the first time in 92 I think and didn't win it again until 2006 and after that they won it another 3 times so they really only had a good great spell from 06 onwards. There a great club but not a great in terms of tradition as Madrid Milan Munich and Liverpool are
Milan of 90s were far better than this team he is talking about.I wish Italian government change their policy regarding stadium so that there are no hurdles for teams to own their stadia.Once they own their stadium revenue will improve and they can reach past glory.
You can say whatever you want about Italian style football but it has brought them a lot of success, both in their club-football as with their national team. More success than the Netherlands with their offensive style of play. And it hurts to say that because I’m Dutch.
You are a population of 17 million people vs 60+ millions of italy. You guys achieved a lot for a small country and most importantly you changed how the game is played, you should be proud. -an italian
I think one of the beauties of football is how much different it is in various countries. The total football of the dutch, the physical presence of the english, the tiki taka of the spanish, the defensive pragmatism of italians, the wonders of the brazilians. It enriches the game and makes it always new and interesting. Here in Italy, we hold the dutch football in great esteem, and Van Basten is still loved; even if our styles are so different, we can still appreciate each other. :)
@@ChrisMcLaren666 what does that have to do with “style of play”, no one is saying they have to have quality players every tournament of the last century. Italy’s population is actually just under 60 million and second oldest after Japan. Italy is also one of the youngest nations in the world, unification happened in the late 19 century and they had a lot of disadvantages for a decade after second World War. Second, Italy’s unlike say France or Dutch aren’t filling their teams 80% with first generation migrants. France’s population is greater than Italy’s and their first World Cup was 1998, with half the team made up oh non french descent. If you look at football countries Uruguay and Argentina many of their greatest players are of Italian lineage from Messi to Maradona, to Real Madrid’s greatest player, won 5 Champions trophies, Argentine Italian DeStefano.
@@samdefore2692 did you tag the wrong person? I don't understand why you're telling me these things, i just pointed out that the Netherlands achieved a fair amount of success for a small country like theirs.

Nistelroy was legend. I never support man united but he was absolutely amazing , I will never forget him. Respect mate , miss watching your skills and goals. God bless
As a young player in the 90s I played an international tournament with our club in Denmark. And we played against an Italian youth squad, guess their senior team played in 4th league or so. I felt like playing against Maldini junior, Baresis nephew, Gattusos neighbour and Nestas sister. We lost 1:0. :) Btw it was tactical perfection of them and they were clever as f...respect from Germany! :)
Well said, that also explains why many Serie A matches end with a 0 - 0 result because most of them are focused too much on defense rather than offence.
Such a wonderful speech from a wonderful player! His expressions when he tells about Milan are really amazing and genuine, thank you for the great video! Great AC Milan memories :)))
I (German) loved that era when AC Milan was on top of European Football and Italy had 3 amazing teams with Milan, Inter and Juve. Maybe 4 if you want to count in Roma. The italian league got trashtalked quite a bit for its defensive tactics but I always loved it.
Same here. I'm a compatriot of yours and I was always fond of Italian top-shelf teams, especially Juve and Inter. Made for quite an interesting childhood (born in 1991, became a football maniac in 1996) and continues to this very day!
There was more than just the 3 teams. Lazio were the Man City of today, Fiorentina always so exciting to watch and Parma were the Chelsea. Best period in league football
Hearing a Dutchman being fair and kind and speaking respectfully of Italians and their working in a team unit. That's music to my ears. Respect to you, Ruud! (i'm Italian)
@hfc sorry i'm replying fast but speaking of soccer i think that is due to taking sides on one's team (they argue a kick each other's a--es just as well among Italians, like they do in any country really, I suppose). We don't have anything against the Dutch as a nation... About my own comment, I was referring to the fact many Dutch look down on Italy, maybe because of stereotypes - just like the Dutch are said to be greedy etc. (but not in Italy, anyway)... not taking it personal but from what I saw around myself in the NL and in years in the UK, many Dutch are rude especially the women, and I mean, putting aside the fact that rude acts in one culture are normal in another.
Example: they (and the English) always go on about how they're so much better, more civil, and different from the Germans. But look how the English representatives and people behaved at Wembley: booing the national anthem first, then refusing the 2nd place medals and leaving the stadium before the end of the ceremony. Even the Royals and entourage didn't greet and just shake hands with our President, and they were next to him. They behave exactly like the Na&is in their own films - spoiled, antisportive, unfair (in the attitude), not willing to just admit they lost, and to a nation they (wrongly) see as culturally, if not ethnically, inferior... (whereas the Germans are in fact often very well-meaning and kind to everyone...)
As longtime AC Milan fan who has as his fav edition the 2005 one and Ruud as my fav CF after R9 and Sheva, this is truly special. Ruud is an authentic legend. The real and unique heir of Marco to my eyes.
Concordo. Era davvero mostruoso. Sapeva fare tutto, calciava con entrambi i piedi, sapeva battere le punizioni, aveva il tiro da lontano e sapeva giocate in quasi tutte le posizioni del centrocampo e atleticamente era molto forte. Nonostante questo era meno appariscente rispetto ad altri suoi compagni (per esempio Kakà). Inspiegabilmente risaltava meno. È un giocatore che ho davvero adorato
Seedorf deserved just as much of a response as the others...speaks to the lack of recognition he’s received from casual football fans. Those that know the game know though
@@temudjin38 he was, two of our coaches just did not call him and there was a lot of unrest around him. People were saying that he was too selfish and that his mindset would unbalance the dressingroom etc. But nobody denied his skill as a player.
Life a friend of mine, fan of the old school Serie A Italiana from 2000's said, Italian teams didn't defend a lot! They used to play on the defence! There is a difference!!!
Well you are right, back then football was about passion and not only money. I don’t feel football is the same anymore after 2015. It’s still good but not the same.
I do agree with everything he has said. Those days it was really hard to play against the Italian, wither it was the national team or the clubs. You can’t let them scored first, because if they do, it’s over.
He is talking about 2004-05. Played Milan home and away and it wasn't just Ruud who was like a headless chicken. None of the man Utd players got much of a touch or opportunity. Milan won 1-0 in both legs, but that was being polite. That Milan team was anything but defensive. With seedorf, pirlo, kaka, sheva, inzaghi and crespo, that was one hell of an attacking team.
Italians understand that a goal isn’t what the other team did well but what your team did wrong. Also football is like sex, anticipation of a goal is the foreplay and the goal is the climax... everyone knows good foreplay better then climax especially the quick fast ones.
I appreciate the respect Ruud has vs Milan defence. But we should not forget that Ancellotti's Milan was absolutely a team based on attacking and ball possession, with many n°10s togheter on the pitch (during his cycle he had Rui Costa, Seedorf, Pirlo, RIvaldo, Kaka and at least 3 of these were constantly playing togheter). Every match of that squad was a real show to watch!
Lack of concentration for the first goal, total chaotic panic after the second goal and boom, 3-3. And all in under 6 min. Probably the only time I cried over a football match.
Nations have cyclical success in European football. I’m from UK, and our clubs are currently enjoying that. I love the different styles of each country and how they combat opponents formations and their “modus operandi” that is unique to each nation. I admire the technical approach and pressing game, derived from patiently applied pressure by Italian teams. The economical and clinical precision of the “Bundasliga”. The flair, and flowing passing game in Spain. I admit to bias, but feel that the English game is unequalled in terms of sheer excitement and drama. Barcelona v Liverpool. Milan v Liverpool. Spurs v Ajax. I think you’ll agree that they were a few of the most dramatic games in recent years. The English game is an unpredictable mixture of physical strength and speed, with an explosive dimension that is hard to contain when played at its best.
I respect players like him that acknowledge the greatness of other players if ronakdo was up there all he would talk about is himself and how his teamates dont meet his standards
The match he's talking about is the only time Giggs, Keane, Scholes, Ronaldo, Rooney and Van Nistelrooy started together. And they couldn't score. Not a bad front 6 but that Milan defence was incredible.
That was Ferguson's legendary team. Oh and then Milan had the livewire Andriy Shevchenko.
And to think liverpool scored 3 goals against them in 6 minutes. Incredible stuff!
@@wolfswinkel8906 Legendary players, but not exactly a legendary team.

best team ever is real madrid with prime cr7 when they won 3 CL in a row
♫♫ football world already mention them as invincible. but that was that Sacchi side who won champion back to back.
Madrid did it too, winning UCL 3 times a row, but still no one call them as the invincible. Ajax did it too, three times a row in the old model of champion league, and there are two other team (I forget what team it is, may be Bayern).

All those great footballers. But the football was friggin boring. The 2003 CL final Milan-Juve was the worst match ever. With the here named big shots in 2005, against PSV eindhovn Milan were lucky to reach the final. In the 2nd semi final game PSV was a lot better with 3 goals, but Milan had a counter goal in the 90+1st minute.

This Milan team was one of the best 11 of all time.
Seedorf one of the most underrated players in football so sad no body talks about him much.
Seedorf is one of the most powerfull atacking midfielders of all time. It was impossible to take a ball from him, what a legs he had, Mirko cro cop legs 😂😂💪🏻💪🏻
He wasn’t underrated at all. You’re just throwing meaningless words around

@@jericho9653 It's hard to stay great unless you're in Real or Barca situation, or more extreme : Bayern. Liverpool was a force back in 70s and 80s (cmiiw) and see what happened. They won continental cups in 2001&2005 but couldn't get past Arsenal and United.
@@iganpparamarta8813 but Milan were great for more than just the 2000s, they won it twice in the 80s and got to another 3 finals in a row in the 90s. They won it twice in the 60s and again I think in the 70s. Your saying Madrid or barca situation but Madrid had not reached a European cup final for 30 years until they won it again in 98 United the same until they won it in 99 and people always saying now how Barcelona have gone in decline but barca are not a traditionally steeped European club as Madrid Milan or liverpool are or Munich. All those teams were always winning in Europe through every decade where ad barca won it for the first time in 92 I think and didn't win it again until 2006 and after that they won it another 3 times so they really only had a good great spell from 06 onwards. There a great club but not a great in terms of tradition as Madrid Milan Munich and Liverpool are
@@jericho9653 Cafu was over 34 something at the time
Milan of 90s were far better than this team he is talking about.I wish Italian government change their policy regarding stadium so that there are no hurdles for teams to own their stadia.Once they own their stadium revenue will improve and they can reach past glory.
You can say whatever you want about Italian style football but it has brought them a lot of success, both in their club-football as with their national team. More success than the Netherlands with their offensive style of play. And it hurts to say that because I’m Dutch.
You are a population of 17 million people vs 60+ millions of italy. You guys achieved a lot for a small country and most importantly you changed how the game is played, you should be proud.
-an italian
@@ChrisMcLaren666 Uruguay has two world cups with a population of 3.5 million citizens.
I think one of the beauties of football is how much different it is in various countries. The total football of the dutch, the physical presence of the english, the tiki taka of the spanish, the defensive pragmatism of italians, the wonders of the brazilians. It enriches the game and makes it always new and interesting. Here in Italy, we hold the dutch football in great esteem, and Van Basten is still loved; even if our styles are so different, we can still appreciate each other. :)
@@ChrisMcLaren666 what does that have to do with “style of play”, no one is saying they have to have quality players every tournament of the last century.
Italy’s population is actually just under 60 million and second oldest after Japan. Italy is also one of the youngest nations in the world, unification happened in the late 19 century and they had a lot of disadvantages for a decade after second World War. Second, Italy’s unlike say France or Dutch aren’t filling their teams 80% with first generation migrants. France’s population is greater than Italy’s and their first World Cup was 1998, with half the team made up oh non french descent. If you look at football countries Uruguay and Argentina many of their greatest players are of Italian lineage from Messi to Maradona, to Real Madrid’s greatest player, won 5 Champions trophies, Argentine Italian DeStefano.

quando componi una squadra di football la prima cosa da fare è sistemare la difesa, senza una forte difesa non vinci niente
Well said, that also explains why many Serie A matches end with a 0 - 0 result because most of them are focused too much on defense rather than offence.
It's been a long, long time since that was the case. There's far more goals in Italy nowadays than England.
IIRC, from most to least goals per game in recent years:
1. BuLi
2. Serie A
3. EPL
4. La Liga
5. Ligue 1
Such a wonderful speech from a wonderful player! His expressions when he tells about Milan are really amazing and genuine, thank you for the great video! Great AC Milan memories :)))
Van Nistelroy had some post traumatic stress disorder from italian defence
Imagining having to train against Stam for club and country, you'd be frustrated as hell. Poor Van Nistelrooy
I (German) loved that era when AC Milan was on top of European Football and Italy had 3 amazing teams with Milan, Inter and Juve. Maybe 4 if you want to count in Roma. The italian league got trashtalked quite a bit for its defensive tactics but I always loved it.
Same here. I'm a compatriot of yours and I was always fond of Italian top-shelf teams, especially Juve and Inter. Made for quite an interesting childhood (born in 1991, became a football maniac in 1996) and continues to this very day!

@@GardEngebretsen agree with you on that
Hearing a Dutchman being fair and kind and speaking respectfully of Italians and their working in a team unit. That's music to my ears. Respect to you, Ruud! (i'm Italian)
@hfc sorry i'm replying fast but speaking of soccer i think that is due to taking sides on one's team (they argue a kick each other's a--es just as well among Italians, like they do in any country really, I suppose). We don't have anything against the Dutch as a nation... About my own comment, I was referring to the fact many Dutch look down on Italy, maybe because of stereotypes - just like the Dutch are said to be greedy etc. (but not in Italy, anyway)... not taking it personal but from what I saw around myself in the NL and in years in the UK, many Dutch are rude especially the women, and I mean, putting aside the fact that rude acts in one culture are normal in another.
Example: they (and the English) always go on about how they're so much better, more civil, and different from the Germans. But look how the English representatives and people behaved at Wembley: booing the national anthem first, then refusing the 2nd place medals and leaving the stadium before the end of the ceremony. Even the Royals and entourage didn't greet and just shake hands with our President, and they were next to him. They behave exactly like the Na&is in their own films - spoiled, antisportive, unfair (in the attitude), not willing to just admit they lost, and to a nation they (wrongly) see as culturally, if not ethnically, inferior... (whereas the Germans are in fact often very well-meaning and kind to everyone...)
As longtime AC Milan fan who has as his fav edition the 2005 one and Ruud as my fav CF after R9 and Sheva, this is truly special. Ruud is an authentic legend. The real and unique heir of Marco to my eyes.

Seedorf è stato un grandissimo...solo le logiche del commercio calcistico gli hanno impedito di vincere almeno un pallone d'oro...
Concordo. Era davvero mostruoso. Sapeva fare tutto, calciava con entrambi i piedi, sapeva battere le punizioni, aveva il tiro da lontano e sapeva giocate in quasi tutte le posizioni del centrocampo e atleticamente era molto forte. Nonostante questo era meno appariscente rispetto ad altri suoi compagni (per esempio Kakà). Inspiegabilmente risaltava meno. È un giocatore che ho davvero adorato
E un po la sua pigrizia. Non era uno che dava il 100% in ogni partita, altrimenti non ci sarebbe stata per nessuno. Classe incredibile.
Si spesso soprattutto in campionato giocava solo 20 minuti a partita

I do agree with everything he has said. Those days it was really hard to play against the Italian, wither it was the national team or the clubs. You can’t let them scored first, because if they do, it’s over.
He is talking about 2004-05. Played Milan home and away and it wasn't just Ruud who was like a headless chicken. None of the man Utd players got much of a touch or opportunity. Milan won 1-0 in both legs, but that was being polite. That Milan team was anything but defensive. With seedorf, pirlo, kaka, sheva, inzaghi and crespo, that was one hell of an attacking team.

it's actually Attacks sold tickets, but defenses wins the game... I think is actually taken from basketball.
@@enricogiannini7455 si il concetto è lo stesso alla fine
Italians understand that a goal isn’t what the other team did well but what your team did wrong. Also football is like sex, anticipation of a goal is the foreplay and the goal is the climax... everyone knows good foreplay better then climax especially the quick fast ones.
I appreciate the respect Ruud has vs Milan defence. But we should not forget that Ancellotti's Milan was absolutely a team based on attacking and ball possession, with many n°10s togheter on the pitch (during his cycle he had Rui Costa, Seedorf, Pirlo, RIvaldo, Kaka and at least 3 of these were constantly playing togheter). Every match of that squad was a real show to watch!
As a Liverpool fan I'm always amazed that we beat that Great Milan team in Istanbul. Its still a mystery how that happened
Lack of concentration for the first goal, total chaotic panic after the second goal and boom, 3-3. And all in under 6 min. Probably the only time I cried over a football match.

Gigi Zambrotta: "Hold my world cup"
Nations have cyclical success in European football. I’m from UK, and our clubs are currently enjoying that. I love the different styles of each country and how they combat opponents formations and their “modus operandi” that is unique to each nation. I admire the technical approach and pressing game, derived from patiently applied pressure by Italian teams. The economical and clinical precision of the “Bundasliga”. The flair, and flowing passing game in Spain. I admit to bias, but feel that the English game is unequalled in terms of sheer excitement and drama. Barcelona v Liverpool. Milan v Liverpool. Spurs v Ajax. I think you’ll agree that they were a few of the most dramatic games in recent years. The English game is an unpredictable mixture of physical strength and speed, with an explosive dimension that is hard to contain when played at its best.
I can remember Rooney named Seedorf the best player he ever played against.
As a Juve fan I always admired that Milan team of those years, not that ours was bad but their defence had something we'll never have.
A Legendary time where a legend was surrrrrrrounded by other legends.. Juventus fan here!
