We couldn't afford such a luxury player when we already had solid midfielders who were good in attack (but not AS good) but more than balanced it out with the work they done around the pitch which was one thing Le Tiss was lacking
He needed to move to a more prestigious club to get more caps. He was class though. Bit of a nut these days.
@@BenRelle I don't think he'd have made it at a bigger club. He was too inconsistent and at a club where even the squad players are as good they wouldn't put up with all of the games he was anonymous in. Why is he a nut tho?
@@stephenm8898bang on
@@BenRelleI think Le Tiss's problem was his brilliance was sporadic and he could be somewhat anonymous at times. I remember him as the type of player who could produce worldies but when he wasn't he offered little else.
In Catalonia there used to be a half-hour programme every Monday where they'd show the best goals from the Premier League. Every week, Matt Le Tissier would be on the show. I'm talking outrageous, sickening goals. Straight in the top corner, left-foot flick and then right over a defender and score against Newcastle. We used to say: 'This guy, Le Tissier, is outrageous and he never goes to a big team. He stays at Southampton. It's incredible. He could play for anyone.' Our whole house was obsessed with him. His talent was simply out of the norm. He could simply dribble past seven or eight players but without speed - he just walked past them.
- Xavi
Says it all really! Shame Le Tiss didn't have many more opportunities to show his talents on the world stage....he deserved to star in a world cup!
El Futbol Int? ¿No era los sábados sobre las 3 de la tarde? O te refieres a El Día Después
Honestly, he made his choice and seems to have been happy with it. Sometimes there's value in recognising where you're at your best and staying there. I just wish he'd see the same thing with medical science.
Sadly the England team manager didn't agree with, but i hear you dude.
@@YeOldeFootballChannel I'd say he means Gol a Gol, that was on TV3.
people would wet their pants if any of the big names scored goals like these today
What a player he was
As a brazilian, I can say that englanders wasted one of their greatest stars to ever graced the game.
Having glenn hoddle as a coach back then was a curse for england
@@kreshnadwinantaarmand8869 having him as the manager of Southampton in 2000 was equally as bad for Le Tis.
One of the classiest forwards in Premier League history.
Couldn’t get a game with England
he was a midfielder though. that's the insane part
@@gerthieand?
Why did none of the top teams want him?????
@@polaris7122 Chelsea tabled 10mil pounds in 1995, ronaldo went for 13.2million in 1996.. as the most expensive player ever, so 10 mil was a hefty sum back then.
they rejected the offer
What a player and a great bloke to boot
So, Pompey fan here. Those that don’t know, Pompey are the more successful, better supported rivals of scumhampton. Now, with that in mind, it greatly pains me to acknowledge Le Tosser (as we affectionately call him) was pretty good. I will never forget his goal against Newcastle (the last one on the video). My whole family watched it on a Sunday, and when he scored, for a very brief moment, we forgot he was a scummer. My Dad, my brother and I all jumped up, knowing we had just seen a superb goal that would be spoken about for years to come. We then remembered he was a scummer, and so naturally called offside, lucky, fluke, miss-kick etc. When my boy was born, the poor bugger had no chance, he came out of hospital wearing his Pompey baby grow, blue scarfs, mittens…. The lot. With this in mind, a couple of years ago we were talking football, and he mentioned Danny Ings. I said, check out Le Tosser, he was above average. The next day, he was telling me how brilliant he was (I’m still ashamed), how good his goals were (DNA test needed) and how much of a loyal team player he was (dissowned). All joking aside, a rival supporter can salute greatness, and Le Tissier was great. PUP
Great story mate
Nice. Now promise that if we meet in the Championship next season, you won't smash your own city up again when we beat you at Fratton...😅
Skatemouth fc 1 MAJOR trophy in the last 70 odd years that they bought and bankrupted them. 8 seasons spent in the top flight in the last 60 years. Enuff said.
@@colingeddes2172 ah, a typical 6 fingered pony fiddler scummer that still can’t count. Let’s recap. The last 70 years… 5 league titles and the FA Cup, compared to your 1 league title and the FA Cup (won by a Pompey boy). You lot should drop the vomit inducing red and white and go green instead, it matches your jealous outlook. Now, let’s go for the full history of the clubs, instead of a time period that you stupidly thought fitted your narrative. We’ve won EVERY league (and before you start spouting about the Premier League, we won its predecessor, so that still counts….twice) and the FA Cup….twice. Your empty trophy cabinet is so dusty that NATS have banned it from being opened in case it causes another wave of grounded flights. Keep being bitter, Scummer, it amuses me.
I live near Fratton Park and am glad Soton got promoted for that very reason.@@davefloyd9443
It’s how effortless he is that does it for me. Outstanding
Yes, he didn't put much effort into it!!
At a time when smoking and drinking were a part of the game too
Yeah like Berbatov
Absolute CLASS. Loyal confident, passionate and insanely GIFTED. As good as Hoddle but more prolific as Matt scored...and scored....and scored. Venebles should have built England around him.
Classic one-club man and undisputed PENALTY KING 👑
I'm trying to imagine what a mid-90's England team with him would look like. Shearer up front, Sheringham just behind (False 9 in all but name), Le Tissier, Gascoigne, Platt, and Ince behind that.
@@marktaylor6491 Paul Ince would have to do a lot of running in that line-up!
@@artmarkham3205 exactly, they haven't got a clue. I used to watch the overweight lazy git, no wonder none of the top clubs signed him!
@@artmarkham3205Paul ince would be punching well above his weight in that midfield !
@@marktaylor6491you could only really play Le Tissier in place of Sheringham otherwise the team wouldn't function. Imo anyway.
Criminally underused by England. He was world class and a joy to watch. As an Englishman I'm thoroughly ashamed we didn't give him the platform on the international stage.
I'm a Bournemouth supporter, but my younger brother has always been a hardcore Saints fan. I remember when he started school many decades ago and was in his first RE (Religious Education) class, and the teacher asked the class who God was. My bro put up his hand and said "Matt Le Tissier". Legend !

@@jipster2020 the magic of football 👏
I'm from Croatia and I remember first championship manager games scrolling through premier clubs and seeing this geezer in Southampton. I was in disbelief by scores he has. Like why he doesn't play in top clubs. So to read and see this bloke do this amazing stuff was such a joy.
He didn’t want to move too far from his home on the island of Guernsey. That’s why he stayed at Southampton.
Southampton only got relegated after he left
What a legend .dont get players like this anymore .the loyalty alone
Kane?
hy did none of the top teams buy him?
@@polaris7122he wanted to stay with Southampton. A real loyal hero for the kids!
@@Codzilla71 nothing to do with him being an overweight lazy git! A hero to the kids, he admitted fixing the spread betting! That's some hero!
@@polaris7122 are you his ex?
The way he can wrap either foot around the ball and strike it so cleanly was so impressive.
One of the cleanest strikers of a ball I've ever seen. So composed and seemed to always find the perfect moment to finish. Technically gifted. Scored every kind of goal you can imagine. Off the left and off the right. Headed goals. Penalties, freekicks. 1V1's, Volleys, chip-the-keeper, 30 yarder's. Undoubtedly England's most underrated player of all time.
By a wide margin.
To me he was the most gifted English player I've seen. He was a better finisher than Gazza
@@ZamWeazle
Perennially injured Darren Anderton- 30 England Caps
Nick Barmby- 23 England Caps
Steve Mcmanaman- 37 England Caps.
Matt Le Tissier- 8 England Caps.
Disgraceful honestly.
Might not be like-for-like, but I'd give practically all of those 90 Caps to Le Tiss.
They're only three examples of players stealing far more caps then their worth, back in the mid to late 90's.
@@dtaafe2857 Couldn't have put it better.
The England managerial loved their limited grafters.
To be fair at least Steve McManaman was a good Premiership winger. He was handy in the right formation.
Still a fit Gazza and Le Tissier with Shearer up front is literally a no brainer. It is and was a disgrace.
Always aimed for the corners when shooting. Phenomenal technical ability and game intelligence. Underscored by his penalty record. A legendary but lesser-known football genius.
Actually the opposite he would aim for the middle and because of his technique it would curl to the corner and trick the keeper he says it in his book
You'd always think he was a Charlie Adam strike from miles out merchant, but his technique was fantastic
Not lesser known at all.
You know you're in for a treat when you're only halfway through the video and the goals are already spectacular.
It's easy to forget how brilliant Matt Le Tissier was and as a Newcastle fan, believe me I've tried. He was a complete natural and made everything look easy. He wasn't the fastest, strongest or commanding but he didn't need to be.
I watched him at Stamford Bridge years ago. Lucky enough to have a quick chat as he signed a program for us. He did not look like an athlete, before or during he game. But his touch, anticipation and uncanny ability to get the "angles" right was phenomenal. What a great player and great man.
I’ve played football with and against him, he lived a few doors down from me in Guernsey for years.
Class act on the field. Even better off it in recent years.
Why Matt wasn’t England National Team regular starter is one of the biggest mysteries in England’s football history.
That little flick up and volley into the top right corner of the net from the free kick towards the end is something else. Easily the best English player of his generation.
A natural talent, and he could have conquered the world. But just way too lazy apparently. And hated training 🤷♂️
@@jameskavanagh4315Many great players (e.g. Romario, Ronaldo, Ronaldhinho, Cassano) hated training, enjoyed partying and were far more unprofessional than Le Tissier, and yet their coaches had the good sense to make a sacrifice and give them the freedom to express themselves, simply because they were too talented to leave out.
We often heard/hear how lazy Le Tissier was, yet look at his results on the pitch; his goalscoring record, which was very impressive given that he played either as a second striker or attacking midfielder, and the joy he brought to the fans every time he played.
England, perhaps until recently, always had an obsession with athleticism, over technique and imagination, that's why we saw the likes of Hoddle, Wilkins, Scholes, Carrick either being played out of position, not utilized properly, or not getting the number of caps their club form merited. I believe this is one of main areas which held England back on the International stage in previous decades.
@@dangiambrone7350I couldn’t agree with you more Dan👍
But I would say, the players you mentioned also had ambition. To play for the top clubs of the time. Le Tiss seemed to content with his lot at Southampton. But apart from being a phenomenal player, I also admired him for not really wanting more than he had. And the loyalty he had for Southampton was outstanding and admirable. Something that is a rarity these days.
In the generation of Shearer, Gazza, Beardsley, Fowler, Barnes, Sheringham etc he was bang average and not consistent enough. They used to call him 'enigmatic' which is just a polite way of saying he's largely unremarkable but can be really good in brief flashes.
I'd say of any generation, no doubt.
'He has this talent for making the extraordinary seem straightforward'.
He was the one player I remember that the opposing supporters would often applaud his goals, and he usually walked away from a banger like he was in the middle of a training session.... classic player...
4:44 is just amazing. He makes you think he's left the ball behind and then manages a snail pace curl.
Good shout. The ascending order here is nonsense. 4:44 is unbelievable technique.
5:19 is the best goal in Prem history for me. Poor quality recording but the distance he hits it from combined with the fact he lobs Tim Sherwood (who was essentially on his line) makes it another level. Lots of players would hit a shot from range (Jamie Redknapp and Frank Lampard would try it every 5 minutes), but where it ended up was often a lottery. Le Tissier would pick a spot and hit it. That's the difference.
For me this is the standout goal here. The others are good, but this one is abnormal.
I keep hearing people say that Le Tiss was "unathletic", but I don't see it. He wasn't an adonis, but he was quick and nimble, that's athletic to me. He was pure class, but he had to get himself into those positions in the first place and you don't do that by being slow and unathletic...
That's because kids growing up with instagram and tiktok think of cr7 in their wet dreams. Like 99% of professional footballers had or have athletic bodies. But it'a homoerotic thing going on in the present era
He was below average In terms of athleticism but was a yard quicker in his head with anticipation and positional sense. Not to mention great skill and technique to ghost by people. Probably as quick with the ball as without it. Plenty of great attackers have had below average athleticism. Berbatov, Bergkamp and Sheringham come to mind. Not to mention the maestro Zidane
@@hakan3217what a reach lmao
@@Ashtonnizzlezidane was a 6'1 nasty mf. Far from below average athleticism at all.
He really wasn't quick, at all. He was very, very good at finding space though.
He was such a baller. Prem Legend
Genius and legend. Criminally under-rated, simply because he played for a "small, unfashionable" club. One the greatest-ever British footballers - just sublime artistry and enough physical power to go with it.
He’s never been underrated, everyone knows how good he was.
Correct, apart from the underrated part.
He was also a Guernseyman, not British. the English always try lay claim on something that’s not theirs by claiming that they’re British and that makes them Englands property. Wrong. Very wrong..
What a player. Extraordinary talent. Great player great broadcaster. Thank you for the opportunity to see you play and now listen to you broadcast.
The goal against Blackburn 5:20 is probably one of the greatest goals in Premier League history
The commentary that goes with that goal is fantastic. "Only Matthew LeTissier can score goals like that. Because only he would think to try."
Tim Flowers (Blackburn goalkeeper) had a habit of hanging a towel in his net and he said in an interview that before the game, Le Tissier approached him and said "I'm going to hit that towel"; sure enough, he did it 😄
I was at that game (Rovers fan). All we could do was applaud it. The best player I have ever seen live
As a Newcastle fan, I hated the prospect of an away game at Southampton. He always found a way to the net.
i think he had a hand when Southampton smashed Utd 6-3
@@JonathanPieforPMhe did, the chip over Schmeichal was in that game. I’m the bloke who jumps slightly late as the ball lands in front of me in the front row. He was an amazing player
He did it to all of us. One of those rare players who transcended club loyalties and everyone just admired his skills, (even when he was scoring against your team).
@@jimherbert007 yeah, I remember saying that he was the greatest player who never really made it in an England shirt. Sublime skills, effortless, and just a fantastic player.
"He always found the net"; 164 goals in 416 appearances 🙄
I think Matt Le Tissier's montage of great premier league goals is as enjoyable to watch as anyone else's. He was a guy who existed on pure skill and was just naturally talented and scored some outrageous goals.
Had the joy of watching Matt throughout his great career. The whole of the Dell used to stand when he took a corner!
Why do people keep writing that he was/is underrated?? Ask any English football fan who the best players were from that generation and his name will always come up. He is the definition of an English football icon.
Great player and a great human being.
No, he is a nut job as a human. Wonderful footballer I agree.
@@shadowside8433 He's not a nut job, he can just see what's going on in the world.
@@Martin-88No, he IS a nutjob, this isn't a debatable point.
Awful human, great footballer. So sad to see him fall into the web of idiotic lies people like him call "the truth"
@@Martin-88 No, he is a nut job. Just because you also like conspiracy theories as well doesn't make them any the more true. Just means you would like to belong to the same cult.
Honestly the best 5 minutes and 49 seconds you can spend on TH-cam.
In over 50 years of watching football one of the most entertaining players I had the good fortune to see play.
England international appearances:
Carlton Palmer 18
Andy Sinton 12
Geoff Thomas 9
Matt Le Tissier 8
How he never won 100 caps for England is staggering. They should have built a team around him..
In that era, didn't know what to do with him
Apparently they only looked at players from top teams back then.
If he had been born in South America, large parts of Europe or anywhere football is played he would be worshipped and rightly so. His main issue was he had the stamina of someone with a 40 a day habit. Le God.
People forget how good he was. Imagine if he was playing today and how much he’d be worth. Not many like him.
Football has moved on. He probably wouldn't get a place in many EPL teams. Players now are expected to 'put in a shift,' to work hard all over the field. Le Tissier wasn't a 'hard worker.' Unaccepable now.
@@carnalea2424 You're right, he'd have to train harder and work harder in matches in order succeed at the highest level in the modern game. A lot has changed in the last 30 years.
Every now and again England produces footballers of outstanding technical skill and the vision to use it. Matt Le Tissier, along with the likes of Glenn Hoddle, were such players. In any European leagues they would be seen as absolute colossus.
Every time one of these pop up in my feed have to watch this guy was so naturally talented and underrated all because he showed a old fashioned thing ( in todays world)called loyalty to Southampton whoever called him le god had it right so good
Deadly off both pegs! Few ever blessed with such a deep tool box
We should have built the England team around him, absolute legend.
Yeah, sadly back then we didn't trust mavericks and we tried to coach all the skill out of our kids.
The most underrated footballer ever in English Football!
He wasn't underrated, everybody who watched back then knew how good he was. What we couldn't understand is why he was consistently overlooked for the national team.
He was never underrated, both he and Gazza were seen as the best players in the league when they played. I suppose that the fact that he didn't play as much for England leaves a dull mark on his career but England mostly hired yes men who favoured work rate over skill. I'm surprised Gazza got as many games as he did. But both Le Tis and Gazza could have easily played for any of the best Brazil teams they were so good. There's a reason why England have only one world cup since 66 and you're now seeing it with Southgate.
We've some of the best creative players in the world and he parks the bus every time favouring mostly work rate in a park the bus defensive system.
Had Le Tissier had his career now he would be one of the greatest the world has ever seen. He had elements of skills only the best of the best have shown, he had the mazy runs of messy combined with the control of Ronaldinho; one of the most underrated players of all time I think mainly down to the club he spent his career at.
He'd actually have to work harder to succeed at the highest level in the modern game, but he's without question the most gifted English footballer I've ever seen.
Absolute class..no knee slides,corner flag abuse,ear-cupping..just great finishing. Even more legendary now because of his factual opinions....massive respect...from a Pompey supporter..
Amazing player. So stylish and lethal. He was an assassin.
so naturally talented, his timing was superb.
He is up there with Gascoigne as the best midfielder this country has ever produced in my opinion. Such composure and skills on the ball , even when they were beating your own team they were a joy to watch. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🏴
He was basically Gascoine without the flair or the drama, as a Spurs fan, I would have preferred Le Tiss...
Le Tissier is the player everybody (through rose tinted specs) thinks Gazza was.
5:24 There isn’t any goal more outrageous than this one.
Its outrageous how few caps he got for England considering how good he was. But England back then were more about physical football without flair.
It's also outrageous when you consider how dire England were in the early '90s.
I became aware of the individual teams in the English league in the early 90s. As they were almost all from London or the North, Southampton was the odd one out, so I picked them as the team to support. Only then did I find out about Le Tiss, and boy, was it rewarding. Never made it to the Dell, as it was basically impossible to get in.
He made it look so easy. Hallmark of a top player.
Matt was an absolute genius with incredible composure.
Matt Le Tissier was always no 1 on my fantasy football team sheet back in the day. Guaranteed goals and assists every week.
leading scorer like 3 years on the bounce i believe
This guy is the best finisher I have ever seen
Some of the dribbling and finishing is just incredible, what a talent 👌
A class act, criminally insane low amount of England caps, he's respected and loved here in Scotland.
Never been a great football fan or follower but TH-cam presented me with this and I watched in awe. What a great player and goal scorer he was....not a bad trainer of horses either I believe.
I think you may be thinking of Mick Channon. Another Legend for Saints, retired from racehorse training a couple of years ago.
Wasn't it Mick Channon who trained horses?
@@martstuada Yes it was indeed. Thank you for putting me right. I knew it was wrong when I hit the Post button. Put it down to old age and need of more tea!
While the likes of Beckham and Ward-Prowse may rival Le Tiss as strikers of a dead ball, some of these show what an amazing striker of a 'live' ball. There are a number of goals here where 99% of players would have taken a touch first before shooting buy he shot and scored with his first touch.
Wow never hear of this guy until now. He was silky smooth ay, amazing technique and skill level.
Amazing, strong intelligent footballer...and now and even more amazing, strong and intelligent man for the people.. LEGEND 👏
No, he's now a an absolute nutcase conspiracy theorist who's contributing to the downfall of society
Criminally underrated. Shame he never played for England much.
Growing up watching le tissier I always considered him one of the best! His long range goals were just sick!
The best English footballer I have ever seen!
I loved going to the dell and watching Matt le God
His goal scoring ability kept us up more than once 🔴⚪🔴⚪🔴⚪👍😉
Le Tiss was sublime. Truly elegant footballer.
I never bore of watching him score goals. Great player
He is the reason I watched motd as a Belgian boy. His style is very similar to luc nilis
What I love about Matt Le Tissier is not just that he scored such wonderful goals, but also that he did so making it look almost effortless; like he wasn't even really trying, and that he had all the time in the world, no rush. He went about his job with the same casualness as someone employed to stack shelves down the local supermarket... just a job, in'it. Absolute legend.
5:44 "He has this talent for making the extraordinary seem straightforward". Spot on, Motty.
Scored a surprising number with his head and within the penalty box - i always remember the long range. Love the one at the end where he flicks it up and hits the volley!
That goal against Blackburn is the greatest goal in PL history.
"Has a talent for making the extraordinary seem normal". That is the quote which sums up this greatly under-rated player.
Personally, I feel he should have played for England more times than he did. (8 caps). Perhaps Glenn Hoddle (et al?)
The same thing could be said of Ian Wright, in my opinion. Another great talent - a rough diamond who shone dazzlingly.
The highlights naturally include the goals but I also saw Tiss regularly drop 40 yard passes on a sixpence. As an attacking force he had the lot. A class act and always a cut above the rest, even when he was having a more subdued game.
The worst thing an opposition could do was wind him up, I remember in a game against Villa Kevin Richardson got under his skin and Tiss was on a mission. Tiss took on Villa and Tiss won.
Forest fan here...as Cloughie said about John Robertson..."He didn't look anything like a footballer...however,give him a yard and a square yard of grass and he became Picasso"...The same can be said of "Le-Tiss"
LeTiss had everything in his game- he was the English Maradonna. Imagine what the England team could have achieved with him as a regular, and ask yoursekf- "Why did he get so few caps?"
There's an answer to that somewhere, and I don't think it's anything to do with footballing ability.....
Here, here!
The style of football which england played was physical. Plus managers preferred Gascoigne, with his issues with drink, over le tissier....
@@vijayiyer8518 Or could it be another example of "If you say the wrong things, your face doesn't fit, so you're OUT, no matter if you're the best", like Steve Bruce- probably the best defender England has ever seen, but never played for England.
Simply because at international level, every player is expected to work hard. If he didn't create or score a goal, he basically did nothing. Gazza just as talented but was prepared to work as hard as possible for his team. Same for Cantona: would give his all for ManUtd.
The ONLY people who try to argue this are either those who weren't born or watching football at the time, or those with a bias (such as Southampton fans understandably). The reality, as EVERYONE who was actually old enough to watch and understand football at the time from an unbiased perspective will tell you is that whenever he stepped up to international level (as he did several times) he never performed. Most likely as his fitness wasn't up to the standard of international football. Sad but true.
He hits the ball so sweetly when he strikes, makes it look too easy.
That man was one special player,wow....
What a player he was, a brilliant entertainer.
He was supposed to play for Rangers in a testimonial back around 1997 or 1998, but picked up an injury and didn't appear; I was only 10 or 11 and my dad took me to the game ⚽
Thank you Matt. The best. Yep. Pompey fan.
A class player... Loyal and honest...
Can you imagine if he had played for a top club, instead of remaining loyal to Southampton? It's amazing how under-appreciated some players are simply because of playing for a club that doesn't win anything.
Lazy, bad decision making, not a team player. He wouldn’t have lasted 5 minutes.
It is far more impressive to almost single-handedly carry a relegation tier team many years in a row. Realistically how many players today do you think would be able to do that?
I think Mick Channon got picked for every England game in the 70s... Which Division 2 team did he play for?
A natural talent. But unfortunately he was known for not being a team player and hated training. Ferguson wanted him at MUFC, but Matt was just way too comfortable at Southampton as far as I remember.
As long as he was happy with what he had, what can you do. But he could have conquered the world 🤷♂️
As time goes on you do forget how good older players were. AND Matt Le Tissier is no one of those. A Genius on the pitch. Could strike a ball so cleanly from anywhere, had a really great first touch. Left foot right foot head. Should have received a lot more England caps than he did..
Some of those left foot shots too, unbelievable talent
Wasn't just his goals that got increasingly more insane
a maverick - as he showed with leaving Sky on principles; imagine Cantona and Matt in the same team
He was sacked for being mental
And Shearer among those two
@@timmasters1195 No, he was sacked for going against a narrative, so he's principled as he refused to back down. Please provide an example of how he's "mental".

So now "Maverick" just means bigoted maniac?
An Englishman with world class technique is a rare thing indeed. I never tire watching Le Tissier in action and it's scandalous he never played a bigger role for England
Video description spot on. Matts my all time favourite, ridiculous talent!
His best goal isn’t even in there. He scored at Barnsley in a league cup tie, itv coverage. Staggering goal
Gascoigne and Tiss. Most gifted English players of that era.
Le Tissier was not English as he was from Guernsey.
@@robfinlay8058Are you a bit thick? 😂
@@robfinlay8058You don't have to be born in the country that becomes your nationality. Le Tissier played multiple times for England he is English. This is factual, not an opinion.
I'm a lifelong Liverpool fan but I wouldn't hesitate to say that Le Tissier was the most skillful player I've ever seen.
“Le Tissier taps another in from three yards” words never uttered on Match Of The Day in the 90s
I remember I used to watch Southampton play just because of matt le tissier,looks can be deceiving because he don’t look particularly strong or fast but once he had the ball he could do everything
Quality player and a bloody good bloke 🏴👍
When brilliance looks effortless.
He was a genius trapped in an amateurs body. Got to say though, the goalkeepers are shocking.
One of those goalkeepers was Peter Schmeicel, who is one of the two best goalkeepers to have ever lived.
Being able to make premier league goalies look like amateurs takes real skill.

@@Theyshallnotdivide Probably Oliver Kahn
Excellent player. Always knew how to be in the right place at the right time and a great finisher too
This guy should of been out best england player ever so much talent
But no England manager at the time gave him many caps. Were they all wrong? Even Hoddle, who you'd think would have always picked him, only chose him a few times. Could it be he needed players who actually worked hard for the team? At Southampon, he did as he pleased which suited them all. But at international level, you need team players. Was he really a team player. I'm not decrying his talent- he had fantastic ability. I'm merely trying to figure out why, considering his ability, he only played 8 times for his country. But for England and the top teams talent alone isn't enough and I wonder if the England managers wondered if he had the right temperament (for want of a better word).
