If anything Padders, I'd say folk like Bridge & V.Anderson have more natural talent than they've shown, sort of the reverse of what you're saying. If anything, they lack the graft to match their skillset.

"Who hasn't made the most of natural talent." maybe, sort of.

Quote: FireWire "Honest to god he could never be described as one of the best midfielders of any generation.

One of the best crossers of the ball ever, but thats it. Got found out in La Liga, especially seen as the media weren't in his back pocket over there.'"


What a load of ball locks. Wont discuss it in detail as its a rl thread but you clearly are a kopite

Just an opinion shared by a lot of football experts, and mates including Man United season ticket holders.

Fat blokes in the mud, flat caps, bogs that drain pi55 directly onto your boots - Now it's all 'Big Ask', 'Arm Wrestle', 'Collision' 'Contact' 'Facials' 'Upper Body Strength' 'Big Units' 'Scooting from Dummy Half' 'Energy Levels' 'Laying the Platform' ‘Middles’ and 'T-R-Y'. Let’s not forget resilience.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_32137.jpg



Quote: Wembley2009 "Not really, Beckhams been one of the best midfielders of my generation.'"


Yes, but he has made the most out of limited talent. Huge commitment, very fit hard working, clearly worked very hard.

So someone that has done a huge amount without say the natural talent of Gazza, Le Tiss etc.

How can I miss you, if you won't go away????:17064.jpg



Just to annoy the very obvious red e follower on here... icon_lol.gif ...

Jamie Carragher.....absolutely average, but his sheer determination to do his utmost for HIS club stands out a mile when put in comparison with the mercenary Spaniards all around him.

Similarly, this description applied to the likes of Cullen, Forster, Gary Sanderson (though not a hometowner)...these type of guys understood the meaning of loyalty and putting in 100% every week, even though it was often a little short of the standard required to reach the pinnacle of their sport.....There are several current and more recent Wire players who could learn a thing or two about that ethic.

Doesn't annoy me, I agree with you about Carragher. I'm not sure who these 'mercenary Spaniards' are, Michael Owen is someone who epitomises the mercenary modern day footballer.

It wasn't me who mentioned Beckham originally, but he fits the title of this thread perfectly. The most famous footballer on the planet despite never being a top top player. In Spain he was admired mostly for his workrate and ethic, his football ability never really won them over, although I agree he is one of the best ever dead ball specialists.

Back to RL and again I agree with you about Cullen and Foster.

He was a top, top player. Nobody in world football could pass a ball like he did, with such accuracy, consistently over 50/60 yards plus. Even folk like Zidane respected Beckham, and what he could do. He was more than just work rate. Robbie Savage is work rate.

Why? Because he has left Liverpool to play for 2 far bigger clubs? icon_wink.gif
