Erik Lamela could’ve got a mention for refusing to use his right foot and resorting to rabonas to solve the problem in some situations!

Massimo Palanca, an Italian footballer during the 70' and 80' who played his best football for Catanzaro, was known for scoring directly from corners. Throughout his career, he consistently attempted this solution and managed to score 13 times from corners... a feat which is still umparalled by any professional footballer in Italy

The dedication to shoehorn a Hull City reference/picture in is commendable...and this one would be one of my favourite wing combinations at the club.

The streets won’t forget Kerlon’s Seal Dribble

Honourable mention for Southampton Legend and Conspiracy theorist Matt Le Tissier for doing wonderful things on the football pitch while stood still for the entire 90 minutes.

Sebastian "Loco" Abreu would be another, but i suppose there's 2 possible attributes. He holds the record for the most professional clubs a player has played for, with 32 clubs in 11 countries and is also famous for basically exclusively doing panenka penalties to win matches, which is how he earned his nickname. scored the winning pen in the match suarez was sent off against ghana in the world cup

I think I'd have actually had Ceni as number one - a great goalkeeper being known only for his penalties and free kicks is something I don't think will ever be repeated. You know, it was a situation where his ability between the sticks was phenomenal and occasionally world-class, but what he could do with the ball at his feet was even better...

My gosh, watching this I just came up with two more players with which you could start a part two on. Radja Nainggolan's tackles from behind, almost like a backheel tackle, and naturally the McGeady Spin by one Aiden McGeady

Lomana Lua Lua for his remarkable somersaults if i attempted the same thing I would most likely land in A%E for spinal injuries but he made it look so easy.

Harry Maguire has the unusual attribute for being absolutely useless but still having the ability to be a first team starter.

Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink - until he retired, arguably the poshest name in soccer

Suggestion : 7 Footballers that never get Injured throughout their career

I can't believe that Rene Higuita doesn't get an honourable mention!

A few others I just wanted to throw out for the PL. Berbatovs first touch. Beckham and curling the ball. Lamela and rabonas. Fernandinho and somehow avoiding yellow cards. Tom Huddlestone who just kicked he ball really hard. Yaya Toure and the ability to use his butt to push people off. Balotelli and his... well there has to have been something.

Your forgot Louis Saurez, biting abilities

My namesake Rory Delap with his long throws of course they used to always cause havoc in the opposition penalty box and contributed to a lot of Stoke City's goals during their earlier years in the Premier league.

Goalkeeper Ceni could have been mentioned in the seven Good he was mentioned in the end

Throw-Ins from David Challinor of Tranmere Rovers, I watched him growing up for several seasons. The man could throw the ball half way across the pitch and was at the same time a candidate for the most useless defender in history

This would have been the perfect video to place small clips to pair alongside the players unique ability

Honestly, this is the best vid you have dropped in months! And maybe one of the best "7" videos full stop

So pleased to see Dave Challinor there. When I think of long throws I think of him rather than Delap, because he was really the first one I'd seen do it so effectively.

a documentary on the afc Wimbledon on the nine promotions in eleven years, how they’re a fan own club and how they have a stadium in plough lane now. The story of they lost the club, how the F A allowed that and won’t allow that anymore. How they were very close to moving to ireland How they went up the English football leagues. It would be a good documentary video if you can do this. #thepeopleschannel

While watching the video I was thinking "he's left out Delap so Dave Challinor better be on this list" and you didn't disappoint. Bravo. Growing up in the 90s I remember Challinor vividly but could only name one thing he was good at - his throws. Couldn't tell you about any other of his attributes. I also thought about Graham Alexander while watching the list and again, you included him. Great minds and all that.

Only other players I think that should've gotten a shoutout were Juninho (Knuckle balling), and Rogério Ceni (131 goals from a Goalkeeper). Sounds like kyou didn't want to have too many set piece merchants in this, but those two are definitely known for their respective skills. Edit: I missed you said Ceni at the end!

what a great video! love these footballers with tricks very few players also display!

Berbatov effortlessly controlling any ball has to be on part 2

Alfie you’re a G. Love the videos!

1986 WC Champion Claudio Borghi remarkable use of the rabona (although he says he did it just because his left foot was useless), and Chilean great Jorge Valdivia fake shot are very deserving of an honorable mention, particularly in Borghi's case

A fresh Alfie video first thing in the morning, how refreshing!

Now that you mentioned Ceni, have you ever made a video about footballers with most goals by position? Pretty well known when it comes to forwards but for CDMs, GKs, etc, it would be interesting.

Chris Waddle's hunchbacked form when dribbling. It's an imagery always etched in my mind...

That Brazilian player Ronny who could strike a ball at 200km per hour would be good shout, i remember him playing in Bundesliga, staying in a wall for his free kick was insane just wishing to be decapeteded

After watching Cuatemoc Blanco’s bit, Honduras’s Carlos Costly had a unique dribble that he would use to get away from defenders. Im not sure what it was called, but Concacaf defenders knew to expect it but always got caught out by it too.

Still remember the days of teams adding advertising hoardings when playing Stoke to ensure Delap couldn’t take a run up.

Every video that features 'without further Adu....' deserves 500 likes minimum!

Nearly all Van Nistlelrooy's goals for Man Utd were from inside the penalty box the classic goal poacher.

Billy Whitehurst also gave the most disastrous interview ever to Shoot Magazine. Asked what his nickname was, he said "Mr Lennon. My team mates reckon if I had six shots at John Lennon, he's still be alive". Shoot had to publish an apology.

I was waiting for Rogério Ceni from the get go but he got an honourable mention, so that's good enough. The Blanco segment made me wonder on the players with the highest penalty conversion rate... apparently the top spot belongs to Le Tissier, at least as far as you can find some stats for that. Some players have never missed a penalty but also didn't score that many.

John Granville, the Wycombe Wanderers and Trinidad & Tobago goalkeeper in the 1990s, had a legendary throw. Towards the end of his career a dodger knee meant that he would never kick the ball and his pinpoint throws would routinely find the feet of teammates on or beyond the halfway line. Naturally, he rarely took goal kicks. Sadly, because of the largely pre-internet period of his career and a lot of his time at WWFC being before they secured league status he is fairly unknown for his behemothic throws.

John Arne Riise / Thomas Hitzlsperger for their absolute rockets from distance

Right just to let you know, the first person I saw use a long throw, was in 1993 when Andy Legg did it for Notts County. Before Dave Challinor. Perhaps there are people before him again, I'm just telling you what I saw.

“What he lacked in talent he more than made up for in chaos” - I want that on my damn tombstone lolol

Really surprised that Jorge Campos didn't even get a honorable mention. He was probably the only professional footballer who was playing as a goalkeeper in the first half and as a centre forward in the second. Also the most flamboyant goalkeeper ever.

I always called it 'the blanco' didn't know the move had an official tag...tried it afew times as well. Quite effective coz no one is ever expecting it😄

Hey alfie, you should do the 7 best players to never score from a set piece, i know you already made a general goal related video but it would be interesting to know this none the less.

Can’t believe that you don’t have more subs. In my mind that makes us subscribers football connoisseurs

Kerlon was so technically gifted it was unbelievable

I would love to get into the crypto market but it's expensive now with the gas price alone, something could cost $18 but the gas could be over $400

Had Charlie Adam in my fantasy team at his peak. Good value :)

I saw 1 of those 2 PK Cuauhtémoc Blanco failed to score live. Against Cirilo Saucedo from Dorados, fun fact is that Pep Guardiola was on the pitch that game. Dorados won 2-0 that night. Cuauhtémoc won a Copa MX captaining 2nd tier Dorados a few years later (40 years old), he never failed a PK for us. What a Legend.

Wan Bissaka is a unit now. Love witching him.

I was so close to commenting about Challinor, then boom. I thought after Delap, everybody wudda have forgotten about them delicious throws an “improper use” of a towel haha.

Hiya Alfie, When Tranmere played Newcastle in FA cup about 20 years ago, I didn't tell my Dad about David Challinor's throw in, Dads quote was "you would think there was a 40 miles per hour wind behind that ball", I said "they've checked with the rest of world football and he's got the longest throw" its a shame what happened to David's shoulders and back haven't to have injections and operation's, could you please do a vlog on Carlisle United like you did that series on Oldham, Bolton and the like, this is Choppy in Whitehaven, Cumbria, England

Great vid lad I would add Muset Ozil passing and shooting technique never seen a player does it

When will you release your documentaries on Turkey's Big Three (Fenerbahçe, Galatasaray, Beşiktaş)? I remember you teased them back in your Süper Lig video.

Blanco is so beyond underrated, even as a huge USMNT guy I can’t disrespect the guy

At 8:32, Blanco's hand appears to punch though the defenders forearm lol

Need to know more about what Billy Whitehurst was like as a player maybe you could do a whole video about him.

The video you never knew you needed

I think a lot of players would loved to be remember for just one thing decent. Most footballers when they retire are completely forgotten unless you are megastar like Zidane, Maradona, etc etc.

Leighton Baines and Bacary Sagna’s crosses into the box were a stuff of legend back in the day

Hey Alfie have you considered making a podcast version of your videos?

7 Footballers who were specifically bad at 1 attribute next!

4:04 is Alireza Beiranvand in the background of the second Quaresma slide? Right after his segment ended? That is some absurd attention to detail if that was intentional

Can you do a video on the rise of Yeovil town from the 6th tier to the championship and then the rapid collapse to conference?

Love your videos, but I much more prefer those "non-list" ones such as the brilliant "Dehumanisation of footballers". All the best from Poland!

Mark Noble's penalties. My god are we going to miss those.

Would you be able to do a video on Riqui Puig transfer please, the implications of him choosing to move to the MLS and the impact this will have on his career progression! Just seems a very weird transfer

Need to do a ranking every 100+ goal premier league striker, based on only their time in the Premier league

I fully expected Tim Cahill to be on this list for his ability to win aerial battles despite his height, and then his iconic boxing the corner flag celebration

Eddie Gray and the drag back comes to mind.

Higuita and the scorpion kick save.

I'm from Portugal and here we call "Trivela" to the characteristic shot of Quaresma with the outside part of the boot

Hitc 6's (plus a Hull City player we lobbed in)

Being a baggies fan. Chris Brunt’s left foot was fucking quality. Corners, free kicks, crosses, through balls, shooting. He was very under rated.

Best German players in the premier league of all time. (Day 372) I will not give up until the video is made or Alfie himself tells me to stop. Everyone else telling me that will be ignored. If you don't believe my number, just go back to the previous videos. I'm at the bottom most of the time, but I'm there.

First name i thought of was Hulk. Maybe too good to feature on a list like this but he's almost too well known for his shot power to not feature imo

As soon as I saw the title I thought of Blanco. Nice to see him on the list

Should have had chilavert the Paraguay goalkeeper who scored free kicks and penalties, he had tons of other little quirks aswell.

Thomas Hitzlsperger - hitting the ball really, really hard

First thing that came to mind: Robben cutting in to the left to curve it into the net with his left foot.

Jesus, my old man was doing the 'Blanco' in the early/mid 70's against me. I wonder if there's a copyright in the midst there. 😁

Rory Delap was of course very famous for his throw-ins but I wonder how unusual his talent actually was. Although he never quite became as well known as Delap, Dave Challinor was known for his very long throws and was widely known for it before Delap. However it was something I saw in an Evostik League (or was it Unibond? I can't remember it was ages ago) that really got me thinking. I'm pretty sure it was Glapwell that had this player who would routinely throw the ball more than half the width of the pitch, and his throw-ins were de-facto corners when that far up the pitch. I stood there wondering if most players could actually do this with a bit of practice and it was actually a technique that could be learned rather than talent thing. Obviously some players would still be able to throw a bit further than others, but I wouldn't be surprised if the differences were fairly marginal.

Rory delap literally was know for throwing a mean throw in from the half line lmao that man is a legend. Stoke hasn’t been the same since.

Antonin Panenka for his Panenka penalty

Another for the long throw, and not a lot else, grouping - Adrian Serioux Sent off playing for throwing the ball into a QPR players face, and later a ridiculous challenge on Beckham when he was at LA Galaxy

Douglas Luiz is trying to make this list with his Olimpico goals!

Silly question: why didn't Utd try playing AWB in the CDM role given his defensive abilities?

I don’t think many people, certainly in Europe, would know the name René Higuita if it wasn’t for the scorpion kick, or Jorge Campos if it wasn’t for the fact he’d be moved from goalkeeper to striker in some games… oh, and those amazing, sometimes self-designed, kits!

Riisto Kallaste and his summersault hand throw

I was hoping you would mention the McGeady spin though

Day 5: a team with teenagers/the best young players to ever captain their senior side

Happy to see el cuau in there lol.

Day 310: Indonesia XI If All Eligible Players Had Declared For Them.

Bang on about AWB, he would do well at a team like West Ham

Why dont these videos haves actual videos from these players? Why always still photos?

Can you do a video on the controversial management career of graeme souness

He can do other things, but Lamela‘s rabonas are something to behold

Maybe this isn't really one because he was very well known for other things as well, but RVP and vollies could be a decent honourable mention

Panenca, Shiravat & the GK that did the scorpion kick
