@@AndrewLaReal Nah, I actually rarely watch football nowadays...just something about today's game that doesn't excite me as much. There was a time when a lot of top players would play in their countries, top talent was also more spread out, more competition in Europe, club fan culture was so varied and unique (not talking about violence, that needed to go). Brazilian and Argentine clubs had legendary players. Most of the world's top players play in the same money laden teams today, those clubs that basically wanted to break off and form their own "super league." Even around this time period 2009/10/11, it felt like that's were it was heading. At least I got to see Messi play.
Not just divas but over inflated players with no real skill. Back then almost every top team was stacked with good players. Now, it’s just bad all over. The best players now are Mbappe, who just runs with the ball and haaland who just uses his body. Absolutely a disgrace.

honestly as an avid ronaldo fan, roberto carlos' vs france was on a different level. It had so much power that the ball boy 10 yards from the goal was putting his hands on his face to block the ball. THEN. it curves SO MUCH that the keeper didnt even MOVE. and it his the post, and went in.
Gibbs was sensational in the 1st leg! United should have buried arsenal in the 1st half. Shame for that Fletcher's red though! He was so good in that season.

I was too young back then to realise how Talented and Versatile Rooney was. He basically became a winger to accommodate Ronaldo who couldn't track back and still did very well.
Try to include those good build ups instead of random clips of shots or crosses. That would make it so much better from just some random match clip highlights. 3:12
When Ronaldo came to United in 2003, he played at the right side of Midfield. It wasn't until 2006 I think that he was moved upfront to the left wing. This game was played in 2009. Jose Mourinho was the first coach to use him as a false 9 in the Copa Del Rey final in 2011.
No. Despite having powerful shot, good positioning and marking, good finishing and heading, his dribbling, passing, flair, tactical mentality are not comparable to messi
