ITT: we remember underrated and forgotten great players
Pic related in his form from 2001/02 and 2003/04 seasons would be a major star today. Never understood why he didn't get called up for 2002 World Cup after shining for Real during their road to 2002 CL win.

Caño Ibagaza
Diego Tristan
>>68684672
he rejected a contract from Real Madrid because they wouldn't let him drink and gamble on his days off like Deportivo did
Lel League was so gorgeous from 1994-2002 when I was actually watching soccer.
Jaap Stam
Those were the times, what a legend godamn.

Pathetico bandwagon scum certainly can't remember that era.
>>68684306

Kily Gonzalez

forza rossonerri

He writes (or used to) on a spanish newspaper. He's actually smart, knows what he's talking about and show a much higher IQ than the typical football player
>>68684361
He came back to river, supposedly being a great goal scorer...
>>68688633
You are used to Spanish players, Solari is smart like all other argies

Occasional reminder that Messi plays here.

Have you ever heard Ramos, Alba or Fabregas talk?
>>68689196
>Alba
God I can't stand his face
>>68689196
They're retarded, like every argie player.
Anyways, the more pathetic football player that I ever saw talking is Alexis Sanchez
>>68690074
>They're retarded, like every argie player.
But you just said Solari was smart
>>68690227
I said he was the exception, not only to argies but all football players
