Footballers such as Gilberto Silva, Juan Román Riquelme, Andrea Pirlo, Dimitar Berbatov, Michael Carrick, Sergio Busquets and Mesut Özil all made the game look so easy to the point they were considered lazy or not ambitious enough. It wasn't until they retired or stop playing football people realize they were irreplaceable.

[@0111NH_Noah]

Same with Claude Makelele. Take a look at the Galacticos.

[@cristiancortes6546]

[@SteveNami616]

Carlos Valderrama was born different, one of the kind footballer. Only dribble when needed and prefer passing than scoring.

[@cheviidevii]

@@SteveNami616 yeah because despite being a DM / CM he rarely tackles his opponents which results in him going months sometimes without a yellow card. Funny thing is he won the ball frequently because his style involves man intercepting the ball.

Man, the football back in the 70s and 80s (early 90s too) was something else, you know? It wasn't just a game; it was like this beautiful dance of passion and skill. Johan Cruyff was like the conductor of an orchestra, with his Total Football wizardry. Every move, every touch-it was like he was painting a masterpiece with a ball. Then there's Carlos Valderrama, with that wild hair and crazy style. He played like he was having the time of his life on the pitch, making it all look effortless. It was infectious, man. You couldn't help but smile watching him do his thing. And Diego Maradona, oh boy. The guy was a legend. The Hand of God, the Goal of the Century-it was like he was living in a different dimension. You could feel the raw passion oozing out of him, not just for the game but for life itself. What I dig most about that era is how these guys weren't just playing to survive or for big paychecks. Nah, they were out there playing for the love of the game. The pitch was their playground, and they were the kids who never wanted to go home. It's like they were saying, "Let's forget everything else and just play some damn good football." Those were the days, my friend. Football wasn't a business; it was a love affair, and those players were the poets of the beautiful game. It's a vibe that's hard to capture these days with all the big money and politics in football. But man, I just love reminiscing about the magic those guys brought to the pitch.

Later on, when I was playing in high school, El Pibe came to Azteca Park, in Houston, and my step dad took my brother, my girlfriend, and myself to see if we could get a picture with him. We did, plus we were able to get autographed jerseys that we brought with us that day. It's my fondest memory of meeting a legend in the sport I love plus being able to share that experience with my family will always be unforgettable.

Thank you for this shoutout to our Historic Captain "El Pibe." People don't know how good he was, and I think possibly he never got to his full potential. Limited by a lack of a professional infrastructure in the game at that time. There were no Psychologists, Nutritionists, Personal fitness coaches, physical therapists, etc. If he would've had the right support, he would've been in another level. I remember my Mom was in charge of keeping his composure in France. Sometimes he called her crying saying he didn't want to be in France no more. And, for a town guy like him, it was a big shock to go to see the world like that, without the support he needed. And honestly, my mom wasn't the right person for that.

Awesome video. Valderrama is indeed one of the most beloved veteran players here in Colombia. We still have much to grow as a football nation, but we have become a respectable country with great players like Luis Díaz and Juan Guillermo Cuadrado.

THough i watched Valderrama during the 90's world cups, I never realised until this video, how he is basically the template where midfielders like Busquets and de Jong get their style of play from. perfect vision, incredible technique and a natural instinct to keep plays simple. Must be one of the hardest things to do on the pitch. Great video.

[@SergioHernandezMinistries]

This man was the motor he understood that the play before the goal was more important than the actual finish and his ability to do it with one touch and 360 vision is what made him so special ⭐️

[@dedfoker]

I'm Colombian and his skills were honed not because of the beach, but the type of ball he used. It's call a cloth ball because it's made of, well, cloth or old fabric. It's wrapped tight with string to get the shape and coated with shoe glue. The result is a non bouncy ball but hard to control and dribble (Still sold nowadays). And he wasn't lazy or care free, just simple in what he played; his job was to retain the ball and control the midfield with quick passing. He didn't deviate from that.

[@chrisbennett6260]

my faviotite colombian player was Luis Fajardo incredibly imaginative and innovative as a brazil fan i loved watching fARJADO in the World Cup alongside carlos Estrada and Freddy RINCON their performance against germany in the group stages were legendary the most audacious piece of skill i eve witnessed in my life was this kind of back hill chip and lob pass to a team mate against a Argentinian club team i think it might have been in the club championship 91

[@2Funky4me]

[@NovusGM]

Football is all about moving the ball. Flashy dribble moves look cool and exciting for the audience, but rarely achieve anything for the game vs. a properly structured and layered defence. A brilliant pass, however, can dismantle even the best defence in the world. For that, players have to be running to receive the ball; not to use it. It is a different mentality and the better and more beautiful way to play the game imo.

[@Neil1974]

Hey this might sound crazy to some Colombians, but there was one underrated player called Victor Danilo Pacheco, even Valderrama said he was better than him, if you could search about him you could see the way he played, it was a combination of old and modern football when football wasn't even modern... the problem with this guy was the he is from one of the most hated regions in Colombia and also he was to small for the coach at that time, but the coach (Maturana) played some others that were even smaller than him, but honestly search for this guy, Victor Danilo Pacheco.
