Robben is the best right-winger with the worst right foot

this guy looks like jurgen klopps illegitimate son

In Brazil the "defensive midfielder" therm doesn't exist. All players for this position are called volantes instead, up to these days.

Kante is literally the next Makalele, both play a similar role, are small fast and French and play for Chelsea.

1. Pirlo/Alonso for regista/deep playing playmaker role 2. Inzhagi for always beating an offside trap 3. Ronaldinho for enganche role 4. Messi for false 10 5. CR7 for wide target men 6. Busquets for half-back role 7. Yaya Toure for the best roaming playmaker at his prime 8. Cafu for the perfect complete wing back role 9. Javier zanetti for being completely all rounded player etc......

The downfall of Barcelona : Lose neymar Lose to Madrid Buy Paulinho for £40 mill

Lev Yashin sounds like a total badass. He's gonna be my first buy in FIFA 18

How did you forget the Fellani role

Felaini redifined his postion. A destroyer midfeilder his ability to be a target man as a midfeilder, and disrupt play from so high up the pitch makes him the perfect anti footballer

this video was awesome man. cheers!

This guys eyebrows 😂😂😂😂

nice video mate !

Legends say Makelele still looking for Riquelme

Carlos Volante has a face of a comic book superhero

Marcelo . Always will be remembered when you'll think about a full back not attacking

Great video

Cruyff maybe but he didn't just revolutionise his position, but rather football in general

Ali Dia redefined what it meant to be a "professional" footballer.

This guy looks like Matt Stone the creator of South park

Niklas Bendtner: the cone position, where you just stand in the area doing absolutely nothing

Patrick Vieira: the guy that did it all without ever coming second in a duel.

There should be at least 1 poll per video. I love them!

Sick vid

Riquelme should have been in the list he was probably the one who made the enganche role famous and more distinct from a trequartista

In Arsene We trust, there's only one arsene Wenger!

9:40 It's NOT Ruby Costa, but RUI Costa! Great Video.... Thanks!

i love the gestures he makes with his face, brilliant.

Nice ppt presentation. Kinda hope for the video when they're in action

Until 1995, only European players were eligible to win the Ballon D'or. Maradona and Pele never won it. Also Ronaldinho won 2 world player of the year awards and Zidane won 3. The fact they won a Ballon D'or each is irrelevant.

Azpilicueta is one of the most underrated defenders and reminds me of Beckenbauer cos he is intellegent in defending, covers positions well and he's a hard tackler. Not to mention he can play anywhere in defence. He was a revelation on the right side of a 3 at the back.

Cafu is the blue print for the modern day Full Back. I remember the days when a full back hardly past the half way line. In the modern game, a decent full back is imperative for any successful team.

Busquets redefined football into diving and acting

Will there ever be a player who will have a position named after them again?!

Maldini got snubbed

Yashin also had mad reflexes.

I'd like to add another : 1) johan cruyff false 9 (a trequartista that doesn't have a striker in front of him) 2) tim cahill shadow striker (false 10) 3) vasyl turyanchyk the anchorman 4) gerd mueller the goal poacher 5) c.ronaldo the wide striker Of course some of them are not the inventor of the position, but they make it popular.

so... where is thomas muller?

Juninho: Best free kick taker of all time

Boston, Mass baby! love the shirt

no mention of Francesco Baresi? he defined the defender role to the sweeper position.

People used to mock about Chelsea's irrational transfer decision such as signing of 30 years old Makélélé for £16 million. However, Claude had unleashed his full potential with the arrival of Mourinho in summer 2004

Franz Bekenbaur is the second best defender in history, the best is Bobby Moore, he's the only defender to never receive a yellow or red card

Beckenbauer was the best. He gave birth to technically gifted CBs. Hansen, Agger and Van Dijk just to name a few (I know, all Liverpool. Didn't know about other clubs.) Maybe David Luiz?

Really interesting video guys !

Love the Boston shirt! BOSTON STRONG!

I think you missed CAFU as a special mention of the attacking wingback player. He was going back and forth in the field before it was even popular in the 90s. Just look at the world cup final with Italy; he was Marcelo way before Marcelo!

One of just 3 Keepers to be nominated for Ballon d'Or. I count 6. Lev Yashin, Dino Zoff, Ivo Viktor, Olli Kahn, Gianluigi Buffon and Manuel Neuer.

This type of videos are so monotone, it would be so much better if you showed videos of the players which you are talking about while you are talking about them

I still remember the iconic screams from makelelé scoring goals

LoL, the inverted winger position was started to use by SAF in United with Giggs and Ronaldo. They swapped their sides many times. These days Robben was just a normal winger in chelsea. AND WHERE THE FUCK IS ROBERTO CARLOS?!

Yashin's biggest ever flaw was his delivery of the ball, just look at any of his recorded matches or scenes and you will know. He was the most brilliant goalkeeper ever but if you see his passing and kicking game you would think his teammates are invisible to his eyes.

I hate ads that play midway through a great video

maldini is best defender ever

I always thought Robben cut in is so easy to predict but it’s cause he gains moementum and you don’t know when he cutting in and his left foot is so dangerous

Modern men Makelele role Robben - Cut in Messi - false 9 Italy - CF/SS Ronaldinho - wherever the heck he played. Left-forward? Not quite a winger and not quite a midfielder

Makelele and kante chelsea legends💙💙🔵🔵

Lev yashin revolutionised the sweeper keeper but neuer did it better and didn't do it against farmers.

Gianni Rivera, a complete attacking midfielder.

Robben: You can predict him, but you can't stop him

Roberto Baggio is a national hero here in Brazil!!

Great

lool "Ruby Costa" xD

I dont know if that counts, but Lothar Matthäus. He was the last real sweeper, and in my opinion the best sweeper to ever play the game.

David Luiz might end up being the player who redefined the centre in the Three at the Back formation, because before that he was a bit of a joke of a defender, but now, he's absolutely brilliant!

7:13 - also adolfo pedenera and alfredo di stefano

What about Muller? He considers himself a space investigator. He finds the space and punishes you. The only space investigator I can think of

Roberto Baggio awsome

Wow I really learned something today! They use the word Volante in Spanish or at least where I was born (El Salvador) referring to the CDM position. I never knew it was named because of that player. Crazy.

Where is Johan Cruijff??

In his 19 months as Real Madrid manager, Zinedine Zidane has won as many titles as he has lost games (7).

What about Thomas muller with the ramdauter CF role

Two things: 1. Arséne Wenger is not a Footballer. So the list being "10 Footballers Who Redefined Their Position" is a bit of a misconception. Wenger may have changed the approach on a team regarding managing it but it's not a "Footballer" neither he had a Position in the field as the other members of the list did. 2. The newest player to redefine a position wasn't mentioned, alas, two of them. One being *Thomas Mueller* who has a position named by himself, the Raumdeuter. Is different from Arjen Robben, an Inside Forward or Inverted Winger, with a different kind of movement on the pitch covering spaces in the last third but not as the typicall Trequartista that plays in the middle but more flamboyant in the channels. Point missed FD. The later and most important IMO is *Marouane Fellaini*. Fellaini had a key role in the Europa League Final and played a new position, Advanced Anchor. In Portugal we use the word Trinco for a midfielder like Fernando (ManCity), a defensive anchor that has a mission to destroy the opponent offensive game. Fellaini is an offensive "Trinco", he played that role well in the Final by destroying the first step of construction in Ajax plan and for that reason Ajax didn't threaten ManUtd as they did against other opponents through their campaign. Also, Felllaini is a huge player that can play air balls really well and receive long passes from his defense, retain the ball and provide the ball to one of the two midfielders (Pogba, the Regista or Herrera, the box-to-box) or the two wingers. You had a chance to provide great knowledge of the game but once again you've missed it, FD.

NICE TEE SHIRT!!!

N'golo Kante or Makele?

Paulinho in that role😂😂

I really wish I had lived in the time of Beckenbauer. He was phenomenal

Baresi played similar to beckenbauer which is why he was known as Kaiser Franz

Dani alves,marcelo are both worth mentioning

Host iconic move Ronaldo chop and he put sleepovers on the map

well, at least its not zak

Messi. The man can literally play anywhere in attack and midfield and still score at least 40 a season

did you see him flinch at 2:03

4 Keepers : Dino Zoff, Oli Kahn, Buffon, and Neuer

In my opinion who redefined the "fantasista" was Maradona...

Franz Beckenbauer Hair line 10:02

And Neymar redefined acting on the pitch

Well done McCub!

These 10 redefined their positions, yet Cruyff redefined football as a whole :D

Very nice video

The Andrea Pirlo role is surely that one of nowadays.

If there was one coach who changed everything not just for one league but for the world soccer - Lobanovskiy

Robben set the blueprint for Ronaldo...behave

I'm a Barcelona fan but I do want to say something positive about Cristiano Ronaldo. I feel like he played a false winger role. Just think about it. They always had CR7 going on that wing but also playing through the middle at times and had Real Madrid striker take his place. So in a way he was a "false winger" same with Messi when he played out on the right.

Shout out to Euro Football Daily for giving Hugo Sanchez some love

Inzaghi redefined offside trap, Maradona redefined the "foot"ball itself.

Robben rarely does the same move twice in a row...he knows what he is doing. Quute the opposite of predictable

The ' Titus Bramble' position !

Totti should be included as trequartista

Where is makaleles legend card fifa?

I would gladly say Miroslav Klose defined the poacher role in football, especially in the world cup
