Guti retires... sigh. I have honestly never seen a better through passer than him. Ridiculous vision and technique. Passionate, has balls, and always speaks his mind... seriously, what's not to like? And oh, the hair, much better than Pirlo's. :tongue:

Criminally underrated player and character... He's the Ambrosini of Real. These players are always held very high in my book. Honest to god he should have always been a starter in the galacticos era, guys like Gravesen or Beckham were preferred to him which is puke worthy. I feel like he was only a guaranteed starter under Schuster... which is just shameful.

Here's a mediocre tribute by Football Espana, certainly not worthy of a player like Guti. There was a much better tribute by goal.com (!) when he left Madrid, might try to dig it up.

Lol.

please so much wrong here. Now I always liked Guti but your points are all wrong.

1. better hair? He has no volume. He looks like he took a flat iron to it. If you think Guti's hair is superior, i can tell your fashion/style is lacking

2. ambrosini of real? Ambro was the consumate pro. Guti was a moody drama queen who regularly fought in squad.

If he had ambro's mentality, he would have stappled himself as a 'star' which he was capasble of being

The hair comment was obviously tongue-in-cheek, but what do I know? It apparently turned into a personality analysis. :D

I was going for more like... an underrated blonde. :D Guti is a primadonna and I love him for that. Definitely not everyone's cup of tea and I have no problem with that.

But actually yeah there are similarities between Guti and Ambro. Both have been at their teams since a really young age, they're heroes for their sets of fans but pretty much underrated by everyone else, and they never were guaranteed starters for most of their careers. Guti was never a starter over the course of a season until Schuster... and Ambro I'm not really sure how it was with Zacc, but up until UCL 07 he was never a regular fixture.

If he had ambro's mentality, he would have stappled himself as a 'star' which he was capasble of being

Or if he sold shirts in Asia.

If Guti had any character he could've been one of the best footballers in the world. Yes his through ball rocks, but he sucks as a footballer... Ambrosini and him couldn't be more different. Ambrosini is a hard worker who had to work his ass of play for Milan. Guti is a spoiled brat who had the world at his feet, but didn't do anything. Imo he's just waste of talent, he should've been one of the best instead he struggled to get playing time at Madrid.

And his hair is awful... lol at comparing it to Pirlo's. As Senatore said, no volume, and I'm pretty sure there are quite a few homosexual alternative rock bassists that have that hairdo.

Totally missed this, sad day for football.The guy was kinda like Dihno but all trough his career.Waste of talent and never pushed himself as he should but i always liked him.

His passing was so silky , it was awesome to watch.Always wanted him at Milan.

Love your taste in midfielders. What's your take on Veron then? :tongue:



Fuck the PL robbed us of 3 years of Veron. Debut season with Lazio = scudetto.

Awesome player also, tailored made for Serie A when it was Serie A and not the shit fest that we have right now.

I have this theory that he never joined Milan because his face didnt help him:lol:

I just can't get enough of Veron. What a player...

:thumbsup:

Bolatti looks good on the video also.

Such a frustrating situation to him now. He always performs well in Internacional, supporters love him, his quality is clear, but he can't never play cause of the limit for foreign players.

Why do you hate him so much? :lol:
He was always annoying in Lazio/inter. Trying his dirty suckerpunches all over the place.

This page is RIDICULOUS. :lol:

had his first time when he was 15, with a prostitute.

used the car of his dad to pick up girls and collected the panties of women he seduced

guarantees that if he wants, he can always have sex. Even if youre a football player. Even the night before a match ...and he does it often


Veron. :proud:

Can't really remember him very much tbh. Mostly from his games at the French Tournament in 97.

Phillip Cocu was one of the most underrated players ive seen, he was one of the best box-to-box midfielders ive seen, he timed his runs excellently and had a nice posture and sweet left foot.



This is the Barca that I liked, they played much nicer/interesting than the current one.
