Right foot, Left foot, Headers, Speed, Skill, Short range, Long range, finesse, power, tap ins, bicycle kicks, dribbling, passing/assists...Could do it all. Sad to see his career cut short, Van Basten was kicked and fouled constantly in an era of football when players weren’t protected as they are now. Those of us who were lucky to see him play for AC Milan and earlier for Ajax will know. I wish the quality of the videos were better for everyone to see, but thank you for uploading this compilation. My favorite player of all time, Marco van Basten.

Uno dei più grandi giocatori di sempre: l'ho visto - allo stadio - molte volte ed era incredibile come riuscisse ad unire eleganza, potenza e classe. Giocatore completo, destro, sinistro, testa, gioco acrobatico, dribbling, controllo di palla, rigorista eccelso. Prima di definire altri giocatori "più forti" per quello che hanno vinto o quanto hanno segnato, bisognerebbe ricordarsi che Marco Van Basten non solo ha smesso di giocare nel pieno della sua maturità calcistica, 29 anni, ma gli ultimi anni giocò "penalizzato" dalla caviglia, alla quale subì diversi interventi, il primo - se ricordo bene - nel 1986 a soli 22 anni. Non avesse avuto la caviglia a tormentarlo già da inizio carriera, chissà quali traguardi avrebbe potuto raggiungere, visto che anche "menomato" riuscì comunque a vincere 3 palloni d'oro, diverse classifiche marcatori, campionato Europeo, coppe campioni etc.

I will explain you fully of details. Messi it was an amazing player between 2008-12, before(2005-08) didn't exist and after that just he lives by the past glory that his team mates Xavi and iniesta achieved and he got the glory of them, since 2012 isn't anymore Messi, is better to be call him "Pessi". You talked about the 91 goals in 2012...and you forgot that he lost the League, he lost the UCL(he missed the final penalty that give his team the pass to the final) and he just won a "King Spanish cup". He scored a lot of goals...unnecessaries to teams like Eibar,Leganes or Las Palmas. Why he didn't deserve that Fifa Balon D'oro but CR7 must to win that year?? Simple, because CR7 in 2012 he won exactly the same as Messi in 2011 and FifaBalon d'oro denied him to gave to his protect child. Now lets travel back to 2015...The season 2014-15 with Luis Enrique as a coach didn't started as well as FCB didn't in the last 3 years of Messi dragging and vomiting on the pitch. The coach putted him as a 10 far away from the Forward position where he was played the last decade because he didn't have the speed and powerful starting as the beginning and with Neymar and Luis Suarez from Feb-May 2015 they won the treble, because of Real Madrid's fell and because and extraordinary Neymar and Suarez that won all the matches to reach the final, Messi was "missing" as usualy from the group to the final. Check the facts before you comment please, Messi should say sorry to Neymar to stolen from him that Balon D'oro in 2015...

His technique...is basically flawless. Left foot, right foot, beating players with simple moves, headers, speed, tap ins, chips. This is the complete striker. And imagine that during his prime, he was basically playing injured and retired at 28. Thats crazy.

@Keagen Jones Dharmawan If I could (and I tried!), I'd give both a thumbs up and down. Marco was a sumptuous striker, no doubt. Euro 88 and many of his AC Milan exploits are magnificent. BUT, with due respect, R9...El Phenomenal, was dubbed that for a reason!! 28 to 34...hmm..there's no guarantee Marco would have won a World Cup, shone in a further two global plus Euro Comps. It's speculation. IMO, Van Basten was a better header of the ball than Ron...but for pace, power, skill, big game performances, edge o your seat thrills...fame breaking moments....!!! See World Cup '98 Brazil v Netherlands....what a game!! See Brazil v Turkey...twice, in Korea and Japan 2002!!! See Germany v Brazil 2002 World Cup Final!!!! His exploits for PSV then Barca were nothing short of stellar!!! That Marco can be discussed in the same breath/on the same page...THAT IS A MARK O RESPECT TO MARCO :))

Sicuramente il più grande attaccante di tutti i tempi. Elegante, tecnicamente eccezionale, ambidestro, veloce ( per un'atleta così alto ) letale, decisivo nelle partite importanti, tatticamente perfetto, armonioso. È riuscito a fare dei gol semplicemente impensabili. Un diamante puro. Lo ammirava anche il grande Diego. Se non avesse smesso di giocare a 27 anni, avrebbe vinto 7 palloni d'oro ed avrebbe raggiunto sicuramente i livelli di Cruijff. Grazie Marco per sempre. ALESSANDRO classe 1972

Never seen a striker like him. He had incredible balance. He could carry the ball and go past anyone. He could head the ball better than most. He could hit the ball from 30 yards out from both right and left foot. In the box he could be a poacher. He also delivered everything with great style. He also played in the dirties league at the time (Serie A ) where there was no protection for players. I would always have him in a worlds best XI. Truly a magnificent player.

If we see that nowadays great soccer players like Messi and Ronaldo can safely dribble without a serious demand to jump in the sky after each dribbling attempt, it is mainly related to the violent tackle on Vab Basten that forced him to quit playing at an early age. Major dribbling talents like Maradona were harshly treated beforehand, and that had a major adverse effect on their longevity.
