Zlatan Ibrahimović: How To Age Like Fine Wine

Zlatan is an enigma, isn't he?
Dude's been around for decades and just keeps on winning. There's a stereotype that players become obsolete after turning 30- I don't think Zlatan got the memo.
Today, we take a look at how he's somehow gotten better and better with age.

@@comfee he's getting the same injuries as most professional players 5+ years younger than him but usually in his case it's because he goes all in almost all the time instead of running away from potentially dangerous situations. you should consider the average age of wild lions, considering this makes him quite some exceptionally long-lasting lion.

To people who say he's arrogant: I think he's pretty self aware about what he's doing, and you can see in interviews he's actually quite a down to earth guy. Also: how boring would the sport be if there were no big personalities like Zlatan, willing to talk trash before the game or hype themselves up. If everyone just said the same things about working hard and trying their best, there would be no reason to show up at press conferences or interviews.

Unpopular opinion : Zlatan psg side with thiago silva pastore cavani etc are arguably better than neymar and mbappe psg side... mbappe and neymar psg cant even win 2020-21 ligue 1. The only thing this squad achieve is getting to 2020 ucl final but if we look into it they only need to beat bvb atlanta and rb leipzig... The zlatan psg side only loses in ucl to prime barca with msn, chelsea and city

@robertomartinez8608 Жыл бұрын

I don't think it's arguable... Being a fan and watching that season was definitely one that was well-rounded in leadership and skill. Zlatan was the leader, but his sergeants like Cavani, Thiago Silva, Matuidi, and Sirigu were able to hold up the team with or without Zlatan. Laurent Blanc was also a legend of France and was able to keep everyone in check in a strong humble manner. The only talker was Zlatan, the rest stayed silent until they were on the pitch. I miss that team very much and think that they deserved the champions league more than any team.

@hugolouessard3914 Жыл бұрын

It's a good thing that you took your time to do part 2 of the video in the end, because since then he won the Serie A again, the first for AC Milan since he was there 11 years ago ! Now what will his 4O's look like? I have no idea tbh. But I wouldn't be surprised to see him going until 44 or even 45. The thing is, he'll want to be in a big club, and at least play as a supersub. So, he might stay at Milan, I think it's the best for him at the moment. Just sad he never won the Champions League. Going to Barcelona was a mistake, he was so good at Inter, and the Barça style didn't suit him really. But to have played for Juventus, Inter and AC Milan without being hated is a miracle only he can do ! Wouldn't it be crazy nice if he won the UCL with Milan in his 40's for the first time?! haha

And a lil' bit before he joined Man. Utd., when I was more mature, I started to like him and appreciate him more because I realized that with his attitude football was interesting, both on and off the pitch. And I'm happy that this young man helped one of his many former teams to win a tittle after many years of drought (I know he wasn't the sole reason but helped a lot).

Zlatan may had conquered Europe, but something remarkable is that Milan conquered him, someone with the mindset of Zlatan never returns to somewhere were he played before, but is only at Milan that he trully felt like he is in home, so much so that even the Club is thinking of making him part of the directive just like Maldini... one can tell how the young kids would feel if not only they have Maldini but also Zlatan watching them during the trainings xD This guy played injured almost the entire season and was able to score 8 goals, one only could guess what his performance could had been if he were in full health, because, age is just a number for this guy.
