He is a down to earth guy and lives a family live, he was rooted in Munich and didn't want to put his family through moving across the continent.

    @jonty_maverick 2 роки тому +5

    My all time 11 (4-3-1-2): Neuer, Cafu, Beckenbauer, Maldini, Facchetti, Xavi, Neeskens, Zidane, Messi, Pele, Cr7. Substitutes(7): Yashin, Baresi, Matthaus, Maradona, Nazario Ronaldo, R. Carlos, Cruyff.
    Notable exclusions(can easily walk into any world Xi): Pirlo, Iniesta, G. Best, Buffon, Gerd Muller, Dani Alves, Platini, Di Stefano, Rijkaard, Scirea, Garrincha, Breitner, Puskas, Dinho, Ramos, Henry, P. Lahm, Scholes, Iker Casillas, M. Desailly, L. Suarez, Modric, Cannavaro, P. Vieira.
    Reasons behind selection: Cafu and Facchetti will be the key attacking fullbacks in this side who are adept at attack and defense to compensate the lack of pure wingers in the squad upfront. Messi takes a central 10 role, Pele and Cr7 are the wide forwards with Pele operating freely and Ronaldo in a more 4-4-2ish striker role getting support from the flanks with exceptional playmakers as Messi and Zizou behind. This side is loaded with technicians and masterminds who are phenomenal with the ball in keeping possession as well as distributing either horizontally with short passes or vertically and diagonally with ping passes and accurate long balls (here Beckenbauer and Neeskens come into play whereas Xavi dictates the tempo).

      Agreed. Cole would be in contention for the left-back spot in my all time 11.
      Also (whisper it) but Carlos wasn't actually as good as people remember him. There were better left-backs around at the time. Lizarazu, Candela, Ziege to name a few. Carlos was a good attacker and would smash in an outrageous free-kick every 100 games or so. But positionally and defensively he wasn't that great.

    There's some lovely footage of an attacking midfielder who takes down a ball with his right foot instep, swivels on it elegently almost a pirouette and then pings it outwards with the outside of his left foot. I know who you're all thinking, it's Zidane right? Pretty much a textbook example of how he played. Wrong- it's Bobby Charlton. This is someone who was playing in the 50s and 60s and it took my breath away watching that because honestly, the technique and poise was exactly the same as someone playing with a modern ball and boots.

    Some of my favs that i watched... Koeman, Seedorf, Chilavert, Peter Schmeichel, Costacurta, Romario, Del Piero, Roberto Baggio, David Villa, Batistuta, Maradona, Pirlo, Totti, Thuram, Buffon, Casillas, Bergkamp, Muller, Sammer, Scholes, Shearer, Henry, Ronaldinho, Rivaldo, Shevchenko, Ruud Gullit, Vialli, Desailly, Roy Keane, Vieira,
    If i had to choose 11 from those....
    Romario David Villa
    Ronaldinho Seedorf
    Pirlo
    Vieira
    Koeman Costacurta Thuram
    Sammer
    Casillas
    A 90's inspired Bielsa style 1-3-3-3/3-1-3-3. Costacurta can step out and Sammer slot into central defence. Seedorf tucks in alongside Vieira narrow and Ronaldinho pushes up and has license to roam anywhere.

      But he was so incredibly elegant and his reading of the game was so prescient, he didn't even need to tackle. He just hoovered up any balls getting within a 5 m circle near him.

    Javier Zanetti. What a player. Longevity, adapting his game, just will go under everyone's radar.
    Alan Hansen. He was unbeatable in his prime. You'd be hard pressed to find a finer ball-playing Central Defender.
    Sinisa Mihailovic. Not only for his incredible set pieces, but for his aggressive and determined play, he was a winner through and through.
    Clarence Seedorf. Could do it all. Slotted into any role in midfield and did it as good as anyone else could.
    George Best - Britain's finest ever player.
    Miroslav Klose. He is the World Cup top scorer for a reason. His timing, never wasting motion, is unrivalled in football.
    Hugo Sanchez. What a player.
    Roy Keane/Patrick Viera/Steven Gerrard - defined their teams. Made them tick. Got you a goal right when you needed it.

    27:32 This is a bit similar to when people say music was way better in the 70's och 80's or whatever point in time, compared to today. A lot of times they mostly say that because decades later it's just the best of the best music of those times that is remembered today. The bad stuff is forgotten. Meanwhile you hear all the bad stuff of today and dont realise that will mostly be forgotten in a few decades and the masterpieces will be what we think about when we talk about 2010's music

    Great Video! Felt Compelled to think about my own greatest 11:
    4-3-3
    GK- Van Der Sar
    RB- Lahm
    CB-Vidic
    CB-Beckenbauer
    LB-Maldini
    CM-Kante
    CM-Pirlo
    CAM-Cryff
    RW-Messi
    CF-Maradona
    LW-Ronaldo

    Matthaus, an elite level attacker AND an elite defender too. Goalscorer, leader. Walks into an all time 11, as does di Stefano. Maradona is the first name on the team sheet. Van Basten is the best all round striker of all time. Puskas or Blokhin gets in too.

    I will put one rule for myself. I will choose only players I have watched live.
    Van der Sar
    Dani Carvahal Sammer Walther Samuel Roberto Carlos
    Zidan
    Basler Iniesta
    M. Laudrup
    Original Ronaldo Baggio

    Bench: Andreas Kopke, Dani Alves, Van Dijk, Veron, De Bryune, Kaka, Ariel Ortega
    Manager: Del Bosque
    Top 11 for player I watched on tape
    Bodo Illgner
    Schnellinger Sammer Beckenbauer Andreas Brehme
    Clodoaldo
    M. Laudrup Iniesta
    Günter Netzer
    Rivelino Preben Elkjaer-Larsen Lothar Emmerich

    Bench: Gianluca Pagliuca, Gerhard Cyliax, Ronald Koeman, Pierre Littbarski, Sigi Held, Helmut Haller, Zico
    Manager: Udo Lattek
    Explanation: Zidan was good in defense.
    Emmerich played on the left side sometimes, like a winger. Scored a ton of goals doing that, and had an amazing technique. Elkjaer could dribble, run, jump... he made a mediocar Verona side champions of the toughest league. Cyliax is on the bench, becuase he could play anywhere, so it doesn't matter who gets injured. Also, a great dribbler and played for Borussia Dortmund.
    Udo Lattek very litterally thought Jupp Heynckes how to be a coach. He also smashed king Otto Rehhagel with 12:0. He dominated Germany with Borussia Mönchengladbach and Europe with Bayern. Best manager of all time.
    I kept Iniesta, Laudrup and Sammer, because they are that damn good.
    I should probably play Zico or Koeman to have someone who can score the set pieces. But I have Brehme, so.

    The first time I watched this video I was wondering why JJ's comment about playing midfielders at RB elicited so much emotion from Alex.
