Carles Puyol - The Last of His Kind

The most complete video about Carles Puyol, the legendary Barcelona defender, respected by everyone in the football community, including Real Madrid fans. We hope you enjoy the video!

[@brucemacdonald4911]

Imagine the fear you would feel as a striker, you think you're through on goal and from the corner of your eye you glimpse this figure rampaging towards you, your heart stops for a moment, you think there's a lion on the pitch chasing you down! The figure gains on you, you can hear thudding footsteps, the fear builds... and through the swaying hair of the chasing beast, you catch a glimpse of it's face... Its worse than you feared! you wished it was a mere lion, but no.... it's the great Carles Puyol!!!! 🦁

@Al I agree with you. Also when I watch stuff from before about 1998 the game seems so much slower and there seemed to be more space/time for attackers, I know they are more protected now but idk, just looks slower and sloppier. The simulation and diving is absolutely horrendous in today's game no question. As you say just my opinion tho.
