Favourite trick/skill in football

Mine has to be the deceptive pass by Ronaldinho where he looks one way and plays it another. Looks fantastic and can be devastating.

What's everyone elses?

    I liked that one Henry did where he pretended to strike the ball, and quickly passed it out to the right with his left foot. Although it was against Boro's (practically) youth squad when they were about 7-0 up.

    That was beautiful.

    My favourite Henry skill is when he's at a standing position, then he knocks the ball past the defender, and uses a burst of pace to beat the man. Simple but effective and looks amazing.

    Round the world. Toe tap, knee tap, shoulder tap, head tap, shoulder tap,knee tap,toe tap and repeat. I've managed to do it a few times but they were lucky.

    Or the 20,000 fan disappearing act, as performed by Sunderland a few seasons back.

    I'd like to add Kerlon's seal dribble. He's been linked with ManYoo in recent days. Unfortunately.

    Any sort of stepover...
    So effective!!

    Anyone remember that Mexican footballer with long hair a few years back when he put the ball between his knees and jumped between two defenders and carried on... Was it '98?

    Yea, the flip-flap thing, it's amazing.

    I love Zidane's pirouette type move thing as well.

    That seal dribble looks good but it really doesn't get him anywhere in the videos it showed...

    I've gotta agree with the ronaldinho right left thing too. :yes:

    when you see that ronaldinho clip its quite frightening, would a good world cup in germany would put him in the top 5 players of all time?

    He deserves to be one of the greats. Barca's champions league win has strengthened his claim as he's won everything now, and another world cup this year will cement it.

    I have the greatest respect for Zidane but for me, Ronaldinho has taken over from Zidane as the greatest player of our generation. He's still only 26 and his unmatched quality combined with his passion and love of football means he'll go down as a legend.

    that is the good thing with him he always has a smile on his face, although his smile is enough to make little kids cry.
