Ronaldinho had Henrik Larsson posters on his bedroom wall, true story. When he first met Henrik at Barcelona he called him "Mi idolo" My idol and he was being serious. That is how good Henrik Larsson was. Edit: Celtic FC is 136 years old today.
Supernatural powers! Incredibly gifted player; King Henrik, King of kings without doubt. Once saw him float on mid air for ages to header a ball … goal, of course. At a game, a massive roar went up, someone confused next to us asked what happened … “Henrik stood up off the bench!” Came on after a horrific injury, got clattered and you could have heard a pin drop amongst 60,000 supporters until we knew he was okay. Legend! Supernatural!
Larsson was one of those wonderful diamonds in the rough, My cousin who is a huge Rangers fan to this day always says he was the best player to grace the Scottish league which tbh. is a HUGE compliment considering the rivalry.
Being a season ticket holder at Celtic I was blessed to watch this man up close for years, so good, so clever , great touch, great passer, could put the boot in if he had too, a great header even tho he’s not the tallest. Honestly he’s one of the best ever imo. One interesting point he nearly became a handball player instead of football
Henrik was pure class,the ultimate Striker and was badly missed by the Celtic support when he left but his contribution to the club was immense a true Celtic ledgend 🍀
I forgot to comment as well on how much we signed Larsson at Celtic for , now don’t get me wrong even tho todays money is mad back then ten million was a lot but not it wasn’t 10 , 5? 3? 1? Nope .. £650, 000 is what we paid 😮
Since Larsson played most of his career in scotland, some critics may argue he would not have been sucessful in more competitive leagues. Then again you could also argue that, going to Celtic and elevate the club to compete in the highest level is something that would be a tough test for any world class player. Im not sure that Messi, Ronaldo, and so on... Could have gone to celtic and do what Larsson did...
When you start talking Kris Boyd as being better than Henrik, then I cannot take this seriously, so go away, because you will be commenting to yerself, saf 😔
Kris Boyd was 5 times top goalscorer in the SPL and scored more goals than Larsson. Case closed. The Swede couldn't lace double Golden Boot winner Ally McCoist's football boots either.@@rambojp73
That's enough so Henrik in 19 minutes decided about Blaugrana win ,two magic passes change destiny.Difference between Larsson and for example Zlatana or Ljungberg is Henrik was natural for any position,he was complete player, except of course stand on goal.Onky one mistake Henrik did in his whole carrier ,he stay bit too long in Celtic.Henrik was a one of 7 my greatest players all time,instead of Totti, Bergkamp, Gascoigne,Boniek,Aimar
@@johnw2019 it’s my opinion my top 20 if you look up FIFA greatest players of all time he isn’t even mentioned just because he’s in Celtic supporters hearts doesn’t mean he’s one of the best
In his last four seasons for Celtic (after his leg break) he scored 173 goals in 206 games in all competitions. I’m so glad he got a Champions League winners medal and got to show his talents off in the EPL before he retired. He was an absolutely ridiculous player, one of the only true World class players to play in the modern Scottish game and he done far more than just score goals. The true King of Kings! 🍀
Man i miss them day's, i know they always say football was better in my day but in this case it truely was..... Watching Larsson, Bobo, Petrov, lennon & Hartson even novo, furgesson & boyd was the best fitba ive ever experienced and the rivalries was unmatched. He stay the perfect amount of time, which just happened to be his number Also the fact Henrik Larsson no only our respect but he won our hearts. Hail Hail ❤🍀🏴🇸🇪7️⃣
Had the privilege to watch celtic play since the mid 80s in the jungle on someone's shoulders,with a macaroon in my hand ,watching the old school players ,but when I got a bit older ,then I seen henrik larsson, celtic is a special club ,there will be more greats,hail hail ma bhoys,x
If Henrik had gone to Barca/Man United earlier in his career he’d be given the credit he deserves. Massively disrespected because he chose to stay at Celtic
Can you do one for Lubo Moravcik? Even Zinedine Zidane has quoted that he based his game on Moravcik early in his career at St. ettiene. Celtic signed him at 33yr old buy what a player he was
He was only good when Rangers were bad although was a good striker I think Celtic fans over rate him because he was scoring goals and helping Celtic win titles at the end of a very, very long period of Rangers dominance.I remember his first season or 2 he was nothing special because Rangers we’re destroying them, Rangers have had better players overall Prime Gazza, Laudrup, de boar, Arteta, Albertz, Mols, Numan, van Bronkhurst, the list goes on for days.Tbf he helped Celtic to a European final, but Rangers have been to the last and most recent 2 Manchester and Seville.And Celtic have been pretty useless in Europe for years. Rangers are undoubtedly the biggest club in Scotland though and I think that comes through when they play in Europe. Everything I’ve listed is just straight facts.And I live in Scotland so I know who’s the biggest on the east side of Scotland there’s hardly any Celtic fans, but Rangers fans are everywhere like rats, and I work in the US and there’s even Rangers fans out there too but don’t know much about Celtic. Although I think Celtic have some fans in oriental Asia because they sign players from there,but to keep it real any club would be proud to have striker like Larson
Celtic undoubtedly have more fans worldwide, and saying Larsson was only good because Rangers were bad, ffs you ask any decent Rangers supporters and they will say Larsson was brilliant, just like I can admit I think laudrup was great, so away and play wi yer marbles ya nutter💯🍀🏴
@@rambojp73 3 replies someone got hurt 😢! I got 3 notifications of the same looser on TH-cam ffs 🤦♂️ If you read my comment I said that any team would be proud to have him, But tbh he should have left long before he did because he would have had a better career if he left your years prior.And he didn’t win the league every season he was there! So that king of king thing is cringe! Celtic despite having a bigger budget right now than rangers have been no where near a European final since 2003, that’s 20 years.The world doesn’t look at the SPL it looks at what you do in Europe lol 😂.

Henrick Larsson was one of the most intelligent and naturally gifted forwards I’ve seen play in Scotland and I’m a rangers fan
You could add McCoist and Mo Johnston in that list
@@truebluebears76 no doubt! Slightly before I stared watching football but seen videos and both were great strikers
Nice to read , I’d have to say the same about laudraup
He shour was love se them days sa e as u lot wee both had so e teams bk then

As a Livi fan, Larson was the best player I've ever seen live.

Guy was different level the king of kings hail hail
Mate, Henrik Larsson was beyond good, he was a god. Best player to lace his own boots in Scotland and in my opinion the UK. Greatest ever.
Best player I've had the pleasure to watch live. You can see how good he really was off the ball when you see him live
He was also a pretty formidable international striker for Sweden across many years, scoring important World Cup and European Championship goals.
My idol growing up, it was an honour to watch him play even when I was too young to fully appreciate how amazing he was, the king of kings 🍀
Supernatural powers!
Incredibly gifted player; King Henrik, King of kings without doubt.

His positional sense of knowing were the ball was going to be 15 seconds before the ball knew and his finishing was better than anyone I'd ever seen .
Henrik was pure class,the ultimate Striker and was badly missed by the Celtic support when he left but his contribution to the club was immense a true Celtic ledgend 🍀
He was incredible
never seen a player like henrik one in a million HH 😂
I would guess, apart from being a genius on the pitch, he's a very likeable guy. That's important.
Very humble guy as well, unselfish on the pitch.
NO WORDS,.. 👑🫶🏼👑
KING OF KINGS!!💚💚💚💚💚💚💚🤟🤙✊END OF!!!✊🇮🇪🏴
King of kings
Just talking about him makes me cry😅HH✅
The King of Kings 👑
Give McCoist his due but nobody can touch Larsson as the greatest striker in the SPL.
Je was the greatest ive seen at celtic
He is the one player that I can tell others I seen in the flesh for 7 seasons
Henrik martin 10 yrs old ,Glasgow Scotland
Man, the way you pronounce some words xD
The way you said Landskrona is almost in English ''LandsJerkOff''
Larsson was as big a pain for Rangers as Goram was for Celtic

Personal opinion Chris Sutton for me the Laddie could play fitball
Some nonsense in this narration

Very.
Why didn’t you show him agents Celtic because he didn’t selabret
u pronounce lots of words and names wrong
Kilmarnock 1 Ceptic 0
Aye, how's your season going now? 😅😅😅
McInnes is a fraud lol
Ah the lesser spotted killie hun . What was score last time we played your lot . Hope u enjoyed us winning the league on your carpet
An over-rated nobody. A flop in Holland and only scored goals in Scotland that were mostly penalties awarded by terrified refs.
You don't lead your Countries attack in 3 World Cups and 3 Euros, and Win a Bronze Medal in a World Cup if your a "over rated nobody" lmfao 😄🍀🇮🇪🍀🇸🇪
Oh and Win a Golden Boot, and Captain your National team 🙏
Kris Boyd scored more goals in Scotland than the nobody Larsson, even when he was at Kilmarnock. 🤣 @@rambojp73

Henrik Larson was so good that I mother and father who are Celtic fans christened me as Fionntan “Henrik” Devlin
He was better than Ibrahimovic without a doubt 🍀
He actually served Ibra some great passes. I love them both, but Ibra is the innovator.
Larsson is my favourite player of all time, imo greatest of all time on and off the ball
His home club.... Heyselborg 🤦♂️
In his last four seasons for Celtic (after his leg break) he scored 173 goals in 206 games in all competitions. I’m so glad he got a Champions League winners medal and got to show his talents off in the EPL before he retired.

The man was a different level, so confident and naturally gifted

He was the best thing ever back then, like perfect
If TH-cam was mainstream in the 00’s this video would’ve had 1000’s of comments. Larsson was one of the best striker in the world
Hahaha as a native of Larsson's hometown, hearing you pronounce Helsingborg as Heisenburg is both funny and horrifying at the same time xD
If Henrik had gone to Barca/Man United earlier in his career he’d be given the credit he deserves. Massively disrespected because he chose to stay at Celtic
What a stupid question in the title of the video; The king of kings!
He was the best. 🤴
All hail the King of kings
You missed out the bit where he fixes the radio!
Harold Batterback? 🤣
He was great for Sweden too
As Celtic players he and Virgil van Dijk really stood out. Larsson was intelligent and a deadly finisher.
LMAO LANDSRUNKA

As a life long Celtic fan who lives in Southend I would have loved him to be the manager of Southend unt, that would have been fantastic
Good video but please put a little bit of effort into the pronunciation of the Swedish club names
a fantastic goalscorer but an even better team player
Wasted playing. For celtic
Blessed to watch the king of kings ! My hero ❤️
Heyselborg? Landsronka?! Come on!
Extremely good
