Carlo Ancelotti Picks His Dream Midfield 

el Maestro ❤

@@Rajab25161il maestro*

I mean, is anyone surprised Pirlo is picked?

I chose 21 for him even though m Ronaldo fan

​@@mavx4ich bin nur überrascht, dass Kroos nicht dabei ist. 😢

People sometimes forget that Zidane also had his weak seasons and weak periods. Not all of his seasons were Euro 2000 level

he's right about consistency though. Zidane was more beloved for what he could do than how often he would do it. He always delivered in the big games which everyone saw but over the course of a full season he could sometimes have spells where he wasn't as motivated. Like for an all time number 10 his goals and assists are pretty low, mostly because he was less motivated against the smaller teams and the less important games.

The goal he scored against Barca boi

@@SonnyK248 Zizu was never obsessed with statistic and in that time when h was in prime way less people watched stats as scale of how good someone is.

Kaka was best player in that position ever in this sport, thats fair from him.

Me2 it's amazing every time he touches that ball, and as Ancelloti says it's really difficult for him to lose the ball, what a player 🙌

Phenomenal player

Overrated

@@haurelkrouba9536😂🤡

​@@haurelkrouba9536you are the one who overrated

Only if he stayed away from injury..imagine...haizz

@@gunaseelaanletchumanan-8547 he should have stayed in Milan also for me, as a Brazilian i think the rossoneri were where his heart was all along…

@@PedroFranca-fm8xl the time by he leaving Milan, Milan already done /finished. atleast he got to start new journey, rather then some player regretting staying at one club for the rest their career

Short peak was kaka like a shooting star but damn kaka was phenomenal

Ozil dropped and outshined him hardcore! Remember Bale presentation when everybody started singing “Florentino don’t sell Ozil”

Chelsea doesn't have nearly as many fans as Man Utd or Liverpool which is why many say Scholes and Gerrard are better but I really disagree, Lampard may be technically the worst out of the 3 but he's obviously the most intelligent, still has more assists than Slippy G as well and obviously more goals, and what people don't know Lampard lost the ball possession less than Slippy G did, this is fact

Lampard has highest IQ football player

​@@aaronaaron5861 He wasn't even technically worse, he has much better shooting technique. Passing range was also expansive, he just didn't use it much playing higher up.

@@aaronaaron5861Lampard was not technically worse than Gerrard what the hell. Lampard had more finesse and a better touch on the ball than Gerrard and can pick out a pass anywhere on the pitch. I’ve seen him pull off unbelievable passes from outside the foot dozens of times,however Gerrard was more explosive and had more in his locker. Faster,stronger and was a superior ball carrier

So did i

He’s not underrated. People rate hin highly in Pl. Wanna know a player that are on par with xavi/iniesta but never really got recognition bcs he didn’t play for madrid/barca ?? David silva. Yes. Play alongside the legends, 4th highest goalscorer for spain. But nobody talking abt him anymore after he left city

I don’t think you understand the term underrated.

Agree. He usually gets left out of these discussions but deserves to be in the best of the best group.

@@Bampiss Dude, the amount of amazing midfield players Spain had in that era was insane. You have Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets, and Xabi Alonso, Fabregas, David Silva, and clearly you can't underrate any one of them because they won everything in 2008-2012

He never left England....that's why the rest of Europe might admit he was great....but not a world class player....no Word Cup or even European Cup.

True 🔥

What does it mean

@@Keokasss It means Ancelotti is one of the only people on this planet who can say they wont pick Zidane and people can't say anything to him because how can you know better than the guy who coached both?

@@hrodebrt you got real football knowledge mate 👏

@@rickybp2259 too bad it used to be know as common sense... but cheers man, appreciate it

My favourite player. He never looked fast, but damn, could he run.

He cr7 and benzema arrived at the same time and he was the only one that flopped… I don’t understand why

@@michaeljbrady3385 Injuries.

​@@michaeljbrady3385he had back to back acl and mcl tears on both legs, and never fully recovered...

And?

​@@aca2077 Not much else to say really

​@aca2077 and play with aswell

@@woogs9726 why tf was that so funny

Huh?? Who's bashing on him for choosing Lampard??

@@hatefulentity5331 just read thru the comments before replying

@@peteremmanuelkitsamba4867 IDK. In mine,your comment is at least number 10 & I don't see anyone hating on choosing Lamps. Nothing wrong with it though,I agree. He's a great player.

Better than Gerrard

@@peteremmanuelkitsamba4867 not replying huh peter?

Sad his madrid stint wasn’t fruitfuk. Imagine that 2007 play alongside cr. My god. But ozil did a good job too

Ozil benched kaka for good.

​@@Nikhil7-m7hnot really. Injuries did it first. Then Ozil consistency.

for 2 seasons thats it, while ronaldo is the goat of goats, sultan of the step over, king of positionings, god of finishing

Ohhhhh poor multimillionaire

?​@@aca2077

​@@aca2077 he had a talent and worked hard to achive his goal. If someone is not living his best life, there always things that one can do to improve. Focusing on one self, setting goals and working towards them is all it takes, but it is a lot and to much for many.

Nice Devil NFT 😉

@@aca2077 he was a refugee of war and he has worked hard to achieve what he has. So STFU and go touch some grass.

FAR BETTER, DON'T YOU EVER DISRESPECT DON CARLO LIKE THAT EVER AGAIN.

And Mourinho

@@adxlioktoralol 28 trophies in 29 years and you say far better(Funny!),not even near Pep and SAFs achievements ,40 Trophies in 16 years goes for Pep and SAF is just above everyone,Pep will prolly break the most trophies record too..Ancelotti does sit on the same table,but hes not better than them in any way! How can a person be so much biased?You started watching football from 2022,didn’t you?Like who tf gives that statement,it makes you look like an absolute dumbass

@@NopeP him too

You speak like pep is at the same table with Ferguson and Ancelotti 😂😂😂😂😂 pep just coached super teams. Never brought a shit team to be a top team. Be respectful kid

Do you think Bellingham is somehow similar in terms of ability with Lampard? Just asking for opinion? No controversy intended?

​@@rabikafle8I also think Jude is similar player as lampard

And Gerrard was much better

@@martinquinn3709he was different, but he wasn’t better. Steve couldn’t do what Frank could do, and Frank couldn’t do everything Steve could do.

@@martinquinn3709stats don’t agree with you. Goals, assists, consecutive games. Top midfield goal scorer by a country mile.

Very deep. Kaká is the real OG 🐐 midfielder

​@@rickybp2259Kaka is the player I started watching football for.

Kaka summed up in a word: beautiful

😂😂😂 not greatest cm but I hear u my guy

@@hapuunofficial7149 no zidane is i know, then id put bobby charlton, i should have said in the premiership.

​@@hapuunofficial7149 your right he isn't the greatest midfielder of all time but I think he's the top goal scorer of all time out of any midfielders? Especially long served midfielder to one team

​@@hapuunofficial7149okay Einstein who's better? Cause 2 of the greatest coaches in history seems to think so, hate it or love it he's one of the best if not the best.

he did say one of the best and thats true he is *one* of the best mids to ever play the game

Yep oldest player to play in champions league and laliga, first croatian to win Ballon dor and has been to 2 back to back semi finals in world cups and has multiple trophies for madrid. What a decorated career

Literally no one is bashing Modric.

He’s 38 mate

@@javierorta4316 he will be 39 on September 9th

Modric needs no explanation.......period!!

They are hobbits warrior from Shire, Frodo and Sam. 😅

He always got his praise

He's a Ballon D'or winner

He's always getting the praise 😂

Exactly. People finally talking about him. Way better than any midfielders people argue about.

Easily top 5 midfielders of all time. No debate

he knows more than you, and that is a fact

@@elikemp2194 why cos he played? this is the same clown started the Ole prop

I absolutely agree. There is only one and only Ricardo dos Santos Izecson Leite. Kaka is one of the most modest, humble and talented players in the history of football.

Same here mate 🤝

Ohhh

Pirlo, seedorf, gattuso, kaka is peak football, all complement each other perfectly. All 4 completely different players. Barca had many similar players, and that chelsea is also 4 similar players and deco as different

But, he hadn’t managed the GOAT Messi.

​@amsaludessie1228 I'm sure with the success he has had, it won't be a problem. He didn't manage Maradona either.

​@@amsaludessie1228 he couldn't coach barca cos he did madrid.

​​@@cameronjones8641he is not old enough, he was a player when Maradona played amd 25 years ago Maradona was retired.

His juventus side nedved and buffon were not there they both arrived after he left but he coach buffon at parma

nah, he'a overrated because he's playing for madrid

Underrated not overrated is a killer this guy

WHAAT !?? overrated?? MODRIC !??? because of having a BALLON D'OR ???? Every aspect of this sentence is a complete nonsense.. One of the best midfielder of all time for sure !!!

Modric is one of the most underrated player ever. People who call him overrated are brainless people who understand nothing about football and should stay away from the sport.

Yes because it was robbed it should be cristiano’s Balon D’or even all modric fans know that deep inside

I salute 🫡 the way you see football boy

Yes, he is Seedorf with better technique and mental attributes, and Lampard is a far better box to box player than Gattuso.

​@@KagirinaiYonakaas an Italian supporter I can say Gattuso performed at High levels only because next to Pirlo, he was a supporter figure. Lampard was in another planet compared to Gennaro "Ringhio" Gattuso...

I remember that, they were on a ridiculous winning streak & were absolutely dominating everyone. That modric injury killed us bc Casemiro was loaned out & the other dm wasn't as good as they thought. I think it was Lucas silva? I don't exactly remember the name

He is english thats why they pick inform players to tournamets

He just want Don Carlo's point of view of Modric. Why you mad about that bro 😂

He probably thinks Seedorf is better....which he is.

He played against him so he knows him , alongside other great midfielders who played the game , you need to explain , even Ancelotti explained Kaka inclusion

There's other midfielders that can go in there ahead of modric... Ballack, Seedorf, Essien

Don't get it twisted, he was talking about midfielders he has managed.

Not really its only rival fans from England that downplay his ability for the sake of propping up the likes of Gerrard and Scholes. Everybody else knows Frank´s one of the best to ever do it. Same for Terry but even worse because he is without doubt the best ever PL defender yet he gets compered to the likes of Rio Ferdinard who is not even the best ever man u defender.

​@@blakan1478JT was a beast, captaining Chelsea from the young age, made five time FIFPRO XI. The best defender and consistent player who plays the prem and probably the best defender england ever have.

F*ck no he really isn’t, no disrespect to any of them

​@jessehammond8944 yeah last time I checked Modric wasn't built like a tank

Lol,way off

Ahahhahah

Hell Seedorf lol. Seedorf like Kante but he's more brute.

Gerrard was better than lampard and modric. Even zidane said himself in 2009 Gerrard was the best player in the world after liverpool beat Madrid 4-0, modric only looked good because he played in Madrid and not a poor liverpool team like Gerrard did

​@samlewis_19 WTF are you on mate?? How on Earth 🌍 would you choose a Gerrard over a Lampard... You must be very much under the influence of Meth 😏

​@@samlewis_19 You are clueless

@@samlewis_19Gerrard couldnt lace Lampards boots kid! Lampard ranked 2nd in BalonDor after Ronaldinho in 2005, Lampard statistically has more goals, more assists, more interceptions, less passes conceded and more way more chance creations than Gerrard! Lampard also has more trophies! Lampard was better in every single department than Gerrard, he also scored in Champions league finals and big games, he also captained his team in Champions league final 2012! Slippy Gerrard will always be remembered for bottling the league twice, in both seasons he played strikers who won Golden boot, Torres, Suarez and Sturridge! That 2005-09 team was very strong reaching 2 CL finals and multiple semis. Zero excuse for slippy G

@@kostask8866your clueless dude he’s telling facts Liverpool was not built Like Madrid or Milan but yet Gerrard stayed and did the impossible with a team that shouldn’t been able to do what they did which was come back from 3-nill after the first half and score 3 un answered goals to then win in pens if you compare the 3 teams that year nobody woulda given Liverpool a chance in hell but they did the impossible so yes with more quality players forsure you have a better team over all where as Liverpool had Gerrard ,carragher and pre Madrid Alonso so on paper they had way less yet Gerrard opened the scoring for the greatest champions league comeback ever do your research

Hardest league 🤣🤣🤣 top 3 I give you that. Spanish clubs are always more productive in Europe than premier league clubs.

@@timberhoff hipster

@@timberhoffthat’s because they play against shit teams every week and beat them in the first 10 mins, so able to rest their squads and best players, they then play thier fully fit teams in CL, whereas PL clubs go on to play 3 competitive tournaments, where at least 10 teams are genuinely capable of beating anyone

@@timberhoff zero ball knowledge, ask any professional footballer or coach wich league is the hardest and they will say prem. Yes, real madrid and barcelona had some of the best teams in our generation, but the league as a whole is not more competetive than the prem. Stop talking out of your ass

​@@timberhoffhaving 2 of the most successful clubs in the world doesn't mean the best league overall, typically there are 18-20 teams in a league, not just 2

lol lampard was just a spicy and smart bellingham

So have you seen Andreas Möller?

Literally the best ever.
