Dennis Bergkamp

If Rooney had scored that, we'd be seeing it on every advert break from Skysports... every pundit would be talking about it... everywhere we went, it would be the advertisement for the Premiership.

Sometimes i dream about him playing in Blaugrana colors.

Legend, if I had to choose a player to watch all day it would be him. He may not have Pele's goal record or Maradona's ability to dribble past 5 players but his football was pure art.

He has the most aesthetically pleasing game of all time.

What a player
One of my all-time favorite players, a wizard with the ball, crystal-clear talent.

I was about to post this and then the Barca match started...

A special player, the striker that never outstood with physique and speed. And still legend of the game. For sure I knew the Newcastle goal was to be no.1.

I have watched that goal hundreds of times and still have no idea how he did it.

Wizard.

 

[Temptation]

Absolute genius.

Never seen anyone do this.

How do you even think of doing something like this?! I assume he just went with the flow but the way he released the ball and timed it was ridiculous.

Ref with the pre-assist

When football was still beautiful. Today it's just about who runs more, faster, has fewer injuries and better subs on the bench. The beauty of the game disappears while athleticism takes over. I'm pretty sure football's peak is already behind us. Better athletes don't make football better.

Bergkamp had the finesse and high IQ. The most elegant style of that era IMO and no wonder, because he was mentored by his idol, none other than Johan Cruyff.

There is this player you should check out. Too bad you never got to see him live.

Messi.
