TaylorJ_01 Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Joaquin was my favourite player for ages. Used to be one of the best with the ball at his feet and so skillfull, never worked hard enough or had enough to his game to make it big, though.

Cajun Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Was Joaquin the one who breast fed until he was 12? Deserves credit just for that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

themanupstairs Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Absolutely loved Enzo Scifo back in the day. Some of my other favorites were Claudio Caniggia, Renat Dassayev, Claudio Lopez and Trifon Ivanov (just for shits and giggles really) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Scifo during World Cup 90 was the first time I'd seen a player wear coloured boots. I was only 6 but it was like I was bedazzled by them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My old man isn't really into footy anymore but he never stops ranting and raving about how good Denis Law was. He's right. I thought of nominating him myself but I wasn't sure he met the criteria. I'm trying to think of a modern equivilent to give you youngsters a guide, but I don't there is one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My old man isn't really into footy anymore but he never stops ranting and raving about how good Denis Law was. He's right. I thought of nominating him myself but I wasn't sure he met the criteria. I'm trying to think of a modern equivilent to give you youngsters a guide, but I don't there is one. Gareth Bale? Marc Overmars? only better and for a longer sustained period? No, nothing like. There were two characteristics of Denis Law that stick in the memory. Firstly, despite being quite slim and of average height, he was very good in the air and his headers were more like shots. Secondly, the ball would often come to him at an awkward angle or height and he'd somehow manage to twist his body into all sorts of weird shapes that would enable him to hit a powerful shot first time. He would score from all sorts of situations where you wouldn't have thought it was possible to even get a shot in. He had a fantastic ability to improvise. Those who saw him will know exactly what I mean. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pungen Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Pedrag Mijatovic Casiraghi Rob Lee Tomas Brolin - not so popular on the British Islands I would think but he was class when he played for Parma and he were in the World Cup '94 allstar team.
