Edgar Davids...one from those golden players I loved Juve for in 90s and 00s Davids at Juventus dominated the midfield with his power and pace, earning him the nickname ‘The Pitbull’. Football in the '80s, '90s and early 2000s was plenty of defenders and defensive midfielders like Davids. They were the real reason why guys like Ronaldo Nazario, Batistuta, Signori or Shearer were not scoring 40 goals every single season, unlike nowadays when every year a new record is broken due to the ridiculous defending. People today say Ramos or Chiellini are the toughest guys in football... Back then, guys like them they were just normal defenders.

@JohanRalle 17 дней назад

EXACTLY!!! Defenders back in the days were absolute warriors units and DM'S were real defensive midfielders not freaking Deep laying play makers they werent as good on the ball but passing them was like trying to jump over a 7ft wall

@danielpardoe2554 11 дней назад

Spot on pal I say this all the time!! Real midfielders and defenders!! They would make mince meat out of today's players. I too loved Juventus back then Davids and Zidane, pure quality!!! David's was actually my favourite player back then easy. Miss those days!!

It's the "pitbull effect" Edgar Davids had He was a pitbull for real when you look at some crazy looking pitbulls you can get the feeling that their bigger than you because you know in a fight they would munch you

@vincentocchipinti4037 15 дней назад

I tried to emulate Edgar Davids every time I played. He was the Pitbull. An absolute dog on the field. With an engine that never gave in. I still have the nickname Vindog now, 25 years after I stopped playing. If only I could have been a small percentage as influencial on the field as he was. He never gave up. That Dutch team he was part of was probably the best team not to win a Copa Mundial. Those Surinamese players just clicked so well for the Dutch national team. If only they could have accepted them. Still goes down as one of my favourite players ever, especially when he was at Juve with Del Piero.

I feel as though Davids legacy was really overshadowed by Seedorf

@lucas82 17 дней назад

Seedorf was definitely the more technical player of the two, Seedorf was a scalpel, Davids a broadsword.

@martijn_yt 13 дней назад

They are completely different players with different strong and weak sides. Davids is faster, better defensively and actually technically better in small spaces. Seedorf is tactically much better, has a better pass, better long shot.

@realdjoffski7201 13 дней назад

As a kid watched both of them play together and Davids was my favourite over Seedorf, Rijkaard and Kluivert were also great, maaan whoever loved football had to love those Dutch teams of the 90's. De Boer brothers, Koeman, Van Basten, Van Der Sar, Gullit... It is such a hard choice, they were all amazing. It was magical, those Dutch national teams. Dank u wel! ❤ 🇵🇱🇳🇱

@Joe-ss9cr 13 дней назад

@@lucas82 not sure about the technical per se. I've seen them both play in the Dutch league and abroad since I was young. The scalpel / broadsword comparison is a very, very bad one. They just had a different style. It's like saying that compared to Ronaldinho Zidane is a crowbar. Just dumb.

He was my favourite player when I was a kid. I also had to wear (sun)glasses for medical reasons outside doing sports. People often reacted weirdly to it so it was so important to have someone to point to. And I was also doing the most running of all kids - though in contrast to Davids that was because of a lack of technical skills.

Davids/Seedorf duo was the midfield backbone of Ajax and the Dutch team. Davids never gave up chasing the ball, putting massive pressure on the other team. Called him the pitbull back then.

@stefanorovetto4640 День назад

Zidane told this story: When they were playing at Juve, going to train or after that, they stopped the car in a parking lot and there was some teenager playing (on the concrete) and they asked the two legends to join and play with them. Edgar told Zizou "Let's go" and Zidane replied "We are pros, we signed a contract, we're not allowed to do this, we can get injured", and Edgar was like:"C'MON, THIS IS THE REASON WHY WE PLAY FOOTBALL.". To make people happy, and you did it Edgar. One of the best man and player in Juve history

Edgar Davids tested positive for banned steroid nandrolone while playing for Juventus in 2001. The Dutchman had been expected to receive a 16-month ban, which would have seen him miss the 2002 World Cup, but he was eventually given a four-month suspension, reduced from five on appeal. Numerous others including Pep Guardiola, Frank DeBoer & Jaap Stam tested positive (aka were caught) Lest we forget, the game's four wealthiest leagues - in England, Italy, Spain and Germany - have more drug cheats than elsewhere because the world's biggest names play in them.
