one of my top ten players of the last 40 years. As an Australian, I have only ever bought one player shirt - and that is Netherlands #10 with Bergkamp on the back. One of his brilliant but underappreciated skills was his passing. He was without peer in the timing, placement and weighting of a pass - weighting is such an underrated skill - and he was THE master. Thank you Dennis for all the joy you brought. smithy in sydney.
He makes everything look so easy. Every moment he looks so calm and he already knows how every defender and goalkeeper is going to react. He is the best of the best and most important of all, he never had an attitude. The man is a living legend and a gift to everyone who loves football
Football is a form of art that when you compare players head to head and appoint a player to be better than other, it becomes very difficult to decide exactly the attributes that you based your opinion on. For me personally the amount of Joy that I receive from watching bergcamp display a skill is eternal.
To soothe my aching heart over the latest news on Cesc going to Chelsea, I find myself instinctively coming here. And indeed, I am once again at ease. Dennis Bergkamp, truly a legend among legends in Arsenal!
Da orgasmos ver lo que hacia con la pelota al suelo, y la calidad impresionante que tenia para definir, el gol al Newcastle, por favor!. Un crack, sin dudas uno de los máximos ídolos del fútbol holandés.
Now you know why Henry has said that he was the best player that he had played with. Pires, Bergkamp Henry brilliant combo, true joy to watch. And about Ozil haha he probably wet his pants after seeing this, long way to go for him.
In my opinion, Bergkamp is a different player. Master of the stiff ball, the "lob" (how do you write that in English: I mean the high ball with a curve). Zidane is also a magnificent player, no doubt. The most important similarity between the two is that they were both very technical and beautiful players.
Certainly one of the greatest players most of us are ever going to see... There's some great players in today's Premier League too, but maybe we forget how lucky we were to see such phenomenal talent 10-15 years ago - Bergkamp, Henry, Cantona, Gullitt, Zola, Gascoigne - to name but a few.
Pedro Luis Fuentes Rivas Bergkamp's technique was around 5 times better than Henry's.Henry had other qualities like speed,strength,great finishes,great shots etc.But they were way different players and their roles were different too.Bergkamp was the mind,the engine and the creator.He was more like a 10(amf,or ''treqartista'')than a striker.Henry was the scorer.Both great players and they formed one of the best partnerships in football history.
I think if you asked Henry who were the two best players he ever played with it would be simple.. Zidane, Bergkamp.. to me Bergkamp had a huge influence on his development as a player.
Uno de los jugadores mas subestimados de la historia del futbol... un verdadero FENOMENO. Una bestia total. Una clase tremenda. Un bocho superior este tipo.
Most underrated Dutch player of all time is Seedorf, the only player on earth to win 3 champions leagues with 3 different teams (Ajax, AC Milan and Real Madrid).
I've been watching this for years already from time to time and posting it online anytime someone talk about the best in the history and no one even mention this football beast. Thanks for the video, 12 years later, but thanks
I hope he returns to Arsenal one day, as a part of our coaching staff. That would be amazing news to my ears. As im sure, just his presence alone at the club, would lift all the Arsenal players moral and confidence. A true football LEGEND and GENIUS. Gotta love Bergkamp I'll. NEVER FORGET what he did for us as long as i live. Its just a shame he was afraid to fly on planes. Im sure if Bergkamp wasn't afraid of flying, we would have had a champions league trophy by now.
What a magestic player. Had a lot of similarities with Zidane in terms of elegance, movement and skill. I really miss these kind of players because todays elite players are more of athleths than elegant artists.
I am Brazillian and i really have a football culture, i have seen many exceptional players, but this one, Bergkamp, man, i wish i could have seen him play here in Brazil, he's one of the best , versatile and technical players of all time
off-the-charts technical ability in almost every category. First touch, dribbling, technique, weight, close-range shots, long-range shots, lobs, crosses. Not only that, was blessed with very good pace and excellent agility. What a player
First of all: thank you for posting this video, you make me feel proud to be dutch ;-) Second: this is by far the beste compilation from Bergkamp at TH-cam. Third: I love Robin Van Persie, but ooow I miss Dennis Bergkamp so much :(
Watching this is like listening to a marvellous work of art - it brings tears to my eyes to see such beauty!!! Those were the days for Arsenal, Bergkamp, Henry, Ljunberg, Overmars, Petit, Parlour, Viera, Seaman. God, I loved football then, now it's all about the money and the hype!!!
My favourite striker. It's just chilling to see how cool he is and i mean cool as in cold. He scored all kinds of goals with such precision and finesse that it seems he controlled the ball with his mind. One of a kind, forever.
Para mi si se le puede considerar el mejor de la historia...quisas no en titulos....me imagino este tio en un equipo como el Barça actual....Es elegancia en puro estado
Bergkamp had something 3-dimensional in his game which makes him such an elegant player. Yes, there were better in dribbling, but none of them had the awareness of the space around him like Bergkamp. His modesty, almost humbleness, makes me emotianal everytime. No exception now, so many thanks for this video. (a PSV EIndhoven fan)
Testimonial from a Brazilian fan: Bergkamp is one of the best players I've ever seen, this video indeed rulezzz! Real Football fans really should know him!
Seen it a million times and every time it's more ridiculous...Never seen anything like it,and we never will.... His first touch is pure, pure magic. This guy can't score an ugly goal. Best goal ever scored: Newcastle Best hattrick ever: Leicester Best WC goal: Argentina '98 Best control ever: Juve Best first touch ever! How is he not recognized as the best player ever?
the 1998 holland vs argentina goal is absolutely incredible. I luckily recorded that match and replayed it thousands of times. He's always the best unconditional.
Bergkamp just wanted to play for Arsenal.. Year after year he stayed even when the contract offered was only for a year, he still wanted to stay and he did so until the very end of his career. Loyal, doesn't get upset when benched and never greedy. He is a true legend for Arsenal!
If there was ever a player i wanted to be when i was growing up, it was Bergkamp. I remember almost every goal shown in the video, still my favourite player of all time:)
Thats wat u call a foward first touch, technique,vision, and shooting from everywhere,,,,thats a striker. One of the most skillful strikers i ve ever seen
I remember watching a lot of these, but the one that really sticks in my mind is the pass to Vieira at about the 3:48 mark. Because of the camera angle, it's one of the few times you can see the play developing as Dennis saw it, how he read the movement of his teammates and how he picked the perfect time and place to send the ball.
Dennis is a great all round striker. He was a great goal machine in his earlier days but became even more great in his later years. He was more complete, possesses great killer passes and really brings the best out of everyone that is playing around him. Henry also recognises him as the best partner he has ever had!
None of the players in this world could ever compared to Bergkamp. Top role model both on and off the pitch. You and Henry are my top all time favorite players.
Seriously, how can anybody in modern age football compare to this guy, for me dennis is one of the most important players of all time, his touch, his shots, his vision, for me he his one of the most well rounded footballers of all time, if not the best.. DUTCH FOOTBALL FOR LIFE
love his playingstyle, so smooth and elegant and at the same time very powerful! !
one of my top ten players of the last 40 years. As an Australian, I have only ever bought one player shirt - and that is Netherlands #10 with Bergkamp on the back.

BEST.PLAYER.IN.HISTORY.
Hahahaha a little bit overreacting there.
He makes everything look so easy.
Every moment he looks so calm and he already knows how every defender and goalkeeper is going to react.
He is the best of the best and most important of all, he never had an attitude.
The man is a living legend and a gift to everyone who loves football
jugador único, nunca ningún jugador hizo estas jugadas quizás Maradona y ronaldinho, pero berkamp lo hacía siempre, el mejor en estilo magico
Just love this video. Been watching over and over again since the first day. Bergkamp was a giant! Hugs from Brasil
03:27
I've been Juventus fan since forever, but when Dennis did that, I almost wept with joy.
That man was Mozart of football.
Football is a form of art that when you compare players head to head and appoint a player to be better than other, it becomes very difficult to decide exactly the attributes that you based your opinion on. For me personally the amount of Joy that I receive from watching bergcamp display a skill is eternal.
Great compilation of magic !
I think aside from his magnificent goals he was unrivaled in his first touch from a long deep pass.
The most perfect player i ever seen! Long life sir Dennis!
To soothe my aching heart over the latest news on Cesc going to Chelsea, I find myself instinctively coming here. And indeed, I am once again at ease. Dennis Bergkamp, truly a legend among legends in Arsenal!
Da orgasmos ver lo que hacia con la pelota al suelo, y la calidad impresionante que tenia para definir, el gol al Newcastle, por favor!. Un crack, sin dudas uno de los máximos ídolos del fútbol holandés.
Henry, a frenchman like Zidane, said that Bergkamp was the best player he had ever played with. And he played with Zidane as well. That says it all.
And Messi.
Bergkamp doesn't play football, he makes the ball fulfill it's natural purpose.
D.Bergkamp's example shows with the most emphatic way the philosophy and the style of dutch football...Quickness and technique....
@2:08 One of the most beautiful football moment i've ever seen. pure genius. Football is not an Art, but some artists play football...
Denis Bergkamp is the best..
Bergkamp was speed, dribble and elegance amazing player (from a United fan)
Bergkamp: what a legend, pure class!
He was my idol in France 1998 with the Netherlands national team.Respect from Malaysia
Fantastico Jugador. Junto a Zidane y Baggio, el más elegante de la historia. Sin duda uno de los más infravalorados.
Bergkamp and Marco van Basten. No zidane or baggio
One of my favorite sportsmen, Bergkamp, Federer, these guys are all-round geniuses and work hard as well, the total package
Imagine this vid in 1080p
he was the player that sparked the love of this game for me
amazing talent
2:08 is the best goal scored ever.
one of few footballers that still give me feelings and emotions
Now you know why Henry has said that he was the best player that he had played with. Pires, Bergkamp Henry brilliant combo, true joy to watch. And about Ozil haha he probably wet his pants after seeing this, long way to go for him.
his goals were amazing and his first touches were just world class.. Absoloute legend to arsenal!
a great technician player
Bergkamp, my favorite player of all time. Master, legend... Simply the Iceman.
Zizou, ronaldinho , cruyff, Dennis ❤️🔥
Zizou the best! But dennis is the best 😂😂😂😂😂 for me the 2
In my opinion, Bergkamp is a different player. Master of the stiff ball, the "lob" (how do you write that in English: I mean the high ball with a curve).

Henry and Bergkamp, two perfect technically strikers
Pedro Luis Fuentes Rivas Bergkamp's technique was around 5 times better than Henry's.Henry had other qualities like speed,strength,great finishes,great shots etc.But they were way different players and their roles were different too.Bergkamp was the mind,the engine and the creator.He was more like a 10(amf,or ''treqartista'')than a striker.Henry was the scorer.Both great players and they formed one of the best partnerships in football history.
+Αλέξανδρος Ταβουλάρης I think you're severly underestimating Henry he had great technique you don't do what he's done without it.
+Nightwatcher 1990 Henry is amateur in terms of technique compared to Bergkamp.
dennis bergkamp un genio, el mejor del mundo para mi de todos los tiempos
5:07 Fantástico!!
I think if you asked Henry who were the two best players he ever played with it would be simple.. Zidane, Bergkamp.. to me Bergkamp had a huge influence on his development as a player.
The best player after Van Basten.
one of the best player in history
tremenda bestiaaaaaa
Fantastico !!!!! one of the best players of all time !!!!

Watching this again, man Bergkamp was amazing. He shot like a master and his ball control is just so good.
I have tears in my eyes after watching this. Very well edited and the music was perfect! Bravo.
off-the-charts technical ability in almost every category. First touch, dribbling, technique, weight, close-range shots, long-range shots, lobs, crosses. Not only that, was blessed with very good pace and excellent agility. What a player
What a player...feel privileged to have watched him while i was growing up..absolute legend...in the same league as Zidane without doubt
A Dennis Bergkamp compilation by a Liverpool fan just shows how much respect the Ice Man gets from all supporters around the world.
First of all: thank you for posting this video, you make me feel proud to be dutch ;-)
Second: this is by far the beste compilation from Bergkamp at TH-cam.
Third: I love Robin Van Persie, but ooow I miss Dennis Bergkamp so much :(
All thats good about football!
One of the all time greats and I do mean GREATS!
Thanks for the magical memories Dennis
Era todo un demonio!!! Al futbol de ahora le faltan jugadores como ese!!
Watching this is like listening to a marvellous work of art - it brings tears to my eyes to see such beauty!!! Those were the days for Arsenal, Bergkamp, Henry, Ljunberg, Overmars, Petit, Parlour, Viera, Seaman. God, I loved football then, now it's all about the money and the hype!!!
My favourite striker. It's just chilling to see how cool he is and i mean cool as in cold. He scored all kinds of goals with such precision and finesse that it seems he controlled the ball with his mind. One of a kind, forever.
him and henry on the same time back in those days was amazing
what a player he was. he doesn't get the recognition he deserves! he should be up their with the best
Para mi si se le puede considerar el mejor de la historia...quisas no en titulos....me imagino este tio en un equipo como el Barça actual....Es elegancia en puro estado
Magnífico, grande jogador, sou brasileiro e fã de Dennis Bergkamp
I've been saying this for two years and I still stand by it. The greatest football video on youtube, the editing is crazy.
He's my favorite footballer of all time. Can't be replaced!
Dennis Bergkamp lenda, gênio, espetacular!!!
no word to this man, probably the most class player ever. to clean and flawless. one of the best and unknown player ever.
even though he scored against us a few times i cant help but admire this genius man!
pure class! pure LEGEND! United fan btw!
I agree with you. Bergkamp deserves much more recognition as he was an amazing player.
This man is a genius! He makes football look so easy... It's awesome!
Bergkamp had something 3-dimensional in his game which makes him such an elegant player. Yes, there were better in dribbling, but none of them had the awareness of the space around him like Bergkamp. His modesty, almost humbleness, makes me emotianal everytime. No exception now, so many thanks for this video. (a PSV EIndhoven fan)
2:08 Epic!
D. Bergkamp best soccer player ever. The day he stopped with soccer was the day I stopped following soccer.
Testimonial from a Brazilian fan: Bergkamp is one of the best players I've ever seen, this video indeed rulezzz! Real Football fans really should know him!
LEGEND OF ARSENAL.
Seen it a million times and every time it's more ridiculous...Never seen anything like it,and we never will....
His first touch is pure, pure magic. This guy can't score an ugly goal.
Best goal ever scored: Newcastle
Best hattrick ever: Leicester
Best WC goal: Argentina '98
Best control ever: Juve
Best first touch ever!
How is he not recognized as the best player ever?
the 1998 holland vs argentina goal is absolutely incredible. I luckily recorded that match and replayed it thousands of times. He's always the best unconditional.
The last 27 secs = indescribable. Such beauty about that goal and celebration.
Bergkamp just wanted to play for Arsenal.. Year after year he stayed even when the contract offered was only for a year, he still wanted to stay and he did so until the very end of his career. Loyal, doesn't get upset when benched and never greedy. He is a true legend for Arsenal!
If there was ever a player i wanted to be when i was growing up, it was Bergkamp.
I remember almost every goal shown in the video, still my favourite player of all time:)
so underrated, dont understand why....one of the best in history in my opinion..
I like the assist & skills section. You can see he is really one of the best players ever.
I think dennis bergkamp can be a happy man.
That goal against Newcastle is still one of the best goals scored EVER. it's insane how he does that with so much feeling.
Incredible first touch and technique! One of the best Dutch Football players ever..
Thats wat u call a foward
first touch, technique,vision, and shooting from everywhere,,,,thats a striker. One of the most skillful strikers i ve ever seen
I remember watching a lot of these, but the one that really sticks in my mind is the pass to Vieira at about the 3:48 mark. Because of the camera angle, it's one of the few times you can see the play developing as Dennis saw it, how he read the movement of his teammates and how he picked the perfect time and place to send the ball.

None of the players in this world could ever compared to Bergkamp. Top role model both on and off the pitch. You and Henry are my top all time favorite players.
I wish
Ronaldo Born to Score
and Ronaldo When Reporters go Crazy
and Romario Versus Defenders
had a million views too
When it comes to who pleases the fans most Dennis Bergkamp is in my opinion unbeatable!
no quantity isn't that hard to be found, quality is what we should really appreciate and not only in football
superb video of a superb player. Poetry in motion.
Seriously, how can anybody in modern age football compare to this guy, for me dennis is one of the most important players of all time, his touch, his shots, his vision, for me he his one of the most well rounded footballers of all time, if not the best.. DUTCH FOOTBALL FOR LIFE
That goal against Argentina in 98 will live with me forever, my dinner ended up on the ceiling. What a master of his art.
Bergkamp. Beautiful 1st touch. Pin point chipped goal.
Dennis Bergkamp for Fifa Classics team 2012.
The best football player ever!!!!
We miss him
LOVE LOVE LOVE!! Thanks for compiling and sharing!
There is no player like him he is really one of a kind
2.04...
no doubt the most extraordinary event in the football history.
absolutely breathtaking
i literally had to cry watching this video...i miss you DB!
One of the most brilliant players I have ever seer
This guy is amazingly strong on the ball, he never gets tackled or never falls in contact with another player.
