pWneR 230 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Wow so if a player gets close to 30 he's a dead man walking? Total nonsense, just look at Ibra, he is playing best football of his life and he is 32.

iseah100 5,612 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 He'll be 27 this month.Hardly pushing 30 is it?Forwards, more so than any other position, peak sooner and decline sooner. With the exception of a few stars they just do. That's why Lukaku would be a better choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara 15,149 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I watched a video of Garrincha and somehow Hazard's style of dribbling and controlling the ball resembles that of the Brazillian wonder. Don't ya think? although that vid doesn't make justice to Garrincha (I've watched a couple of specials about him and he was an incredible dribbler) you do have a point about Eden resembling him.It's also funny to see how slower football was 50 years ago... it seems to be in slow motion, lol Stingray 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you are right, when you see stuff from the era of Di Stefano, Garrincha, you do see how much it has evolved. Sometimes I wonder how much the video speeds are indeed slower by the way :-) it could very well be! Barbara 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
communicate 2,703 Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 There's only one truly succesful false 9 in Europe and that's Messi. The only reason he makes it work is because he's an absolute phenomenon who excels in the most crucial attributes in football. It's an incredibly difficult role to pull off and it can work against you.Personally I find it a very overrated concept. Strikers are crucial.Totti is another one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NiclasCFC 2,582 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 He wont work as a false 9..Even Messi is not really a "false 9" IMO.. they put him there on the line-up but he just moves around wherever he wants, he has a free role.most of the time he is in the middle, kina of like a CAM position .You just explained how a false 9 works mate.... yuvala 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilvorak 3,734 Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I wouldn't mind using Eden as a fake 9 against teams that park the bus but it's not something we should regularly try.Outside of Messi and Totti it hardly ever works.
