Oh we're including older players too? Then yeah, Klinsmann would definitely be on there. And Rudi. And Der Kaiser.
What was the name of the guy that played for the Germany national team in Italy 90 that was a free kick specialist. That guy was a guaranteed goal if the FK was anywhere close to the box. His nickname in Spanish was "El Poroto" meanin the bean, but I cant recall his name. Do you know who I am talking about??
Andreas Brehme? He scored the 1-0 goal against Argentina in the final and is considered one of the greatest free kick specialists ever. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andreas_Brehme
I remember his goal against Argentina and I think I am thinking of someone else or maybe I am just confused. I was only 6 for Italy 90. Brehme killed the Argentinian dream of a repeat so he is a hero of mine.
Chilean, you watch Alves's FK against Atletico on Saturday? He's fucking nasty. His goal celebrations are too legit to quit.
This is very true. He does what he needs to do for Barca, and he does what he needs to do for his national team, which is ride the pine.
Actually he is starting to play more for Brazil. At first they experimented with playing both Maicon and him together (in the Confed Cup) but lately they actually put Alves at RM against Chile and he played pretty well.
Glad to be here... i'm a long time lurker but the start of the soccer board was just too good of an invitation to pass up.
It's stupid for Brazil to do that. Maicon is the best combo RB in the world and Lucio is a ROCK at LB. They are the starts of Dunga's incarnation of Brazil.
Brazilian defenders are my favorite defenders. Also, I forgot to add, my favorite historical player is Roberto Rivelino
Alltime: thierry henry-reason arsenal is my favorite team, also reason why france is my favorite national team other than the U.S. Now: Cesc, RVP, Andrey Arshavin, Taiye Taiwo, Mamadou Niang, Steve Mandanda, lucho gonzalez
all us US fans remember Bebeto in this pic, but solid consistent striker Brazilian stalwart from the 90's Rai How can you not love this outfit....Mexican Keepers Jorge Campos, great athlete Michael Laudrup was the truth for Denmark
