Colos Short and Curlies Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Always wore whit socks in goal Pav style Before that, as my surname is a different spelling of Dave Beasant I decided to be a 'Keeper Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffJ Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Practiced the David Platt volley against Belgium in 1990 with my mate all summer long, he was Gazza and I was Platt. Couldn’t get it down, skied loads over the bar and the few I got on target were shit. When we played a school match a few months later he clipped the ball into the box over my shoulder and I fucking nailed, flew past the keeper. We lost the game 7-2. We also used to try and recreate Alex Mathie’s mint goal from when beat Sheffield Wed 4-2 on our first ever Monday Night Football. With no success.

Guest Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Twisted my ankle once trying to do the Ronaldinho ‘flip flop’ thing. Celebration I’d copy as a kid was Andy Cole’s v Chelsea where he spun his arm round then sped off with his arm pointing forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 I was going to post I remember everyone at school and on my football team trying to copy the flip flp thing after Ronaldinho did it. Tried to copy that Di Canio volley vs Wimbledon too. Also used to do the Ravanelli celebration of shirt over the head Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Can remember me and my brothers playing football in Newcastle airport when on the way to Majorca or somewhere. Was around the time that Nike advert was out, we must have been annoying the fuck out of everyone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Horacio Carbonari. Not even kidding. He scored a screamer once, so we all used to shout "Carbonariiiiiiii" if the ball came to us about 25 yards out. Or Shay Given if I was in goal, which I was quite a lot. I used to say to myelf "Save, Shay" if I stopped one going in the corner. This lass who played semi-pro nearly broke my nose by drilling one straight at my face and that was the last time I ever pretended to be Shay Given.

Ameritoon Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 It wasn't until I was a teenager I started watching football outside of World Cups, but the first player I tried to emulate was Shevchenko. It was not conducive to my style of play at all Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happinesstan Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Just remembered their was a Charlie Nicholas volley, for Arsenal, that people tried to copy. For me it was Ray Wilkins' goal against Belgium at Euro '80. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
