Thise are great promising talents,like Nasri;Benzema;Kompany;Richards, but apart from them I see Pato the best ever in the world at this age, also you forgot another young talent that’s emerging from Germany, and that’s Marko Martin!

what a **** video (x2)
assaflak
TRY READING, 7 seconds in it says:
“Disclaimer: Players that are featured in this video are all 22 y.o. or younger. So please dont go, “Wheres Robinho, Iniesta, Tevez, Torres, Schweini, Robben, Kaka?” Cheers”
great video. I would like to have seen Pique, the manutd defender. Hes pretty good. But whatever, nice compilation, lots of the best of them.
-what a **** video-
1. learn to read.
2. anderson is class, dont be stupid. that kid is 19, and hes joined new team and in a new country, and hes already adjusted and become one of the best mids in the league, outperforming players like fabregas and gerrard in head-to-head situations. Hes taken a spot equal or above established stars like carrick, too.
3. Torres isnt really better than Rooney. Hes WAY too easily marked out of a game, ex: vs manutd. People say ronaldo doesnt show against big teams? please! Torres is worse than that. And they are 2 different types of strikers. Torres is an out-and-out striker, Rooney is more of a second striker. When working with tevez, hes occupying a different role. And even with 3 injuries (well, 2, and then a ‘virus’) hes managed to do a decent job this season. And Rooney creates, just as often as he scores. Consider united v aston villa in the facup. rooney really was the difference, and the fact is that united dont play as well without him. Hes a vital link. Anyone can score, Rooney can score and create. thats more than you can really say about torres.
anyways- this was a great video, great job. Maybe you could focus on each league, go into a bit more depth. like do the EPL and get Rooney, Ronaldo, Cesc, Anderson, Richards, etc…
More in depth, or maybe get some smaller talents like Pique, Simpson, Welbeck, and others. Less known but just as promising.

This video was boring, way to much man united, and ronaldo just scores against the small clubs so dont say he is the best player in the world when for a start there are WAY to many amazing players in the world to single one out. Dont go by what match of the day and the newspapers say about ronaldo being the best in the world when he just isint. He is a diving little cheat and moans when he doesint win a challange or gets tackled fairly.

@Adam
You could say that about any player in the world, which player hasn’t intentionally taken a dive? orwhich player hasn’t whined or complained about a tackle or challenge?
Its enough of the “he dives to much, hes a cheat” type of sayings. Ronaldo plays with extraordinary pace and speed, so even the slightest nudges can put him to the ground.
Has he blatantly taken a dive, yes, but what player in the world hasnt? But to label him as a diver and cheat, to me its a ridiculous statement.
He is one of the best, if not the best player in the world right now, and has the potential to be one of the all time greatest players to grace the field.

This is a great video.. There is way too much talent out there atm to make a vid featuring all of them. I think those who believe some ar e missed out should make more vidz so that we can get a collection happening.
And for those who say person A or person B is so **** you guys are just stupid. Eg. Anderson i read some comments saying he is **** this and Ronaldo is **** that… They are playing for one of the best teams in the world and I’m pretty sure they would know more than you or me. And if you think they are just overrated blah blah blah then you go try get overrated see if you can make millions of dollars playing football

adam-
Too much united? there were as many arsenal players than united. You think that Ronaldo, Rooney, Anderson, and Nani dont deserve to be on the list? No, the only reason you complain about that is cause you are being biased.
And why are you insulting Ronaldo? No one even mentioned him, and you just start with the personal attacks. A diving cheat? There are worse, and ronaldo has cut a lot of that out of his game. Why dont you complain about fabregas? he flopped when he was tapped in the face, and then he rolled on the ground for a few minutes, and got his supposed friend ejected. Like thats not a dive. Ronaldo does flop about and clutch his face or anything like that. Not like Dida did after chasing the fan that hit him for a few steps. But do you complain about Dida? I doubt it. A cheat? How about Messi tipping the ball over the Villareal keeper with his hand. Thats not cheating, is it? Or course it isnt. Why insult Ronaldo? No one brought him up, but you picked him out of that crowd of players to complain about. That shows something about you: you are being baised. Grow up.
He scored against Arsenal, didnt he? Oh, shoot, he did. Yeah, they are a small club. He scored against Roma. Theyre a tiny club in your opinion, arent they?
He moans when he doesnt get a challenge? yeah, pretty much. Who doesnt? Thats my question. Why dont you go search for some players who havent ever complained to a ref. Arsenal players have done it. As I recall, the chelsea team got fined cause all their players complained to the ref abusively.
And if you watch the tackles that the refs dont call on him, they are terrible. They miss so many calls it really is ridiculous.
Why not go by the match of the day people? they are paid to be experts on this stuff, right? yeah. And if that doesnt work for you, just watch him play. Or look at the stats. Hes a brilliant creative and goalscoring force. Hes a good passer, and if you watch, his pass weight is just brilliant. Hes obviously a good finisher, and his pace is outstanding.
Yes, there are a lot of players, and to say one is the best is quite a statement. But to be honest, hes got to be the one. His dribbling, scoring, passing, movement, heading, pace, and strength are magnificent. And hes been the best performer this year anywhere. Hes consistent. What else do you want? Magic? Should he literally fly inverted down the field while juggling the ball on the soles of his feet and then nutmeg the keeper to score with his head from 20 yards out? Would that be amazing enough for you? Sheesh.
FIFA has a world player of the year every year, so obviously it isnt impossible to pick 1 player out of all them. This year, right now, it has got to be Ronaldo.

So stop F****ing whining about this and this player getting too much or too little attention! The World’s just so full of talent, and these kids are some of the best, not necessarily THE best… Either way around, future’s looking good! Great vid…

Lots of people love Man United, but he didn’t really show any bias towards them. They have talented youngsters so obviously those players are going to be in the video. James Milner is a great player, only a moron would think otherwise. He is very young but he is one of Newcastle’s most consistent players. He works hard, he is quick and stong - not to mention skillful. Just because he isn’t flashy doesn’t mean he isn’t a good player. You are full of it.
I’m with Wonder Kid though, I’d like to know the name of the songs especially the first one because I know it form somewhere.

ugh, there are many great youngsters that were missed. DUH!!! did you honestlly think its possible for one guy to remember every great player? No. he did a great job. If he missed your player, fine. Why dont you go make your own compilation about them? You can put in your best youngsters. Then, everyone can come and complain to you about how you missed X, Y, and Z!
Seriously, he wont get all of them, and you couldnt do better.
adam- why dont you make a list of the best ones. Lets see how many you miss, and how biased your list is.

No anderson??? really, now I disagree with that. Anderson has been brilliant, did a grea job today when he subbed on vs tottenham. He outplayed Gerrard and Fabregas when he played directly against them. He holds the ball well under pressure, makes good attacking runs, passes well, has good skill, and while not being a big goalscorer, he has scored with Porto, and hes still 19. Oh, wait, sorry, he plays for United. I guess that automatically makes him not good enough, ehh?
But you have Nani? Oh, thats interesting. everyone agrees who watches United that Anderson is more promising than Nani.
You have Rooney, Ronaldo, Nani, Tevez??? Okay, isnt that the same as what the video maker has? Subract tevez (using the u22 cutoff that he had, tevez is too old, but he is mentioned in the disclaimer as one that would be but is a bit old) and add Anderson, who is agreed by experts and fans to be more promising than Nani (who you picked). Still, you have the exact same number of players from United as the video maker. ITS THE EXACT SAME NUMBER!!! and yet you say, “thats who personally i would have in that list instead of being a man united lover.”
I took a tally of how many from a few teams.
There were:
Manchester United:4
Barcelona:3
Real Madrid:4
Arsenal:6
And hes a man united lover? Too much United???
There are more Arsenal players picked than United. Thats a fact. So you picked just as many United players, and then there were actually more Arsenal players than United…
Do you still think hes a biased ‘man united lover?’
If you do, you really have issues.
And I noticed a lack of defenders on your list… are there really that few good ones? What about Micah Richards? Hes pretty good. Or Gerard Pique? Id say either one could deserve a spot on your list.
You see, everyone has a different opinion of players that should go on that list. You arent the World Authority. I think you missed a few.
And really, he isnt being a man united lover, if anything, and arsenal lover. get your facts straight.

yeah, the setanta thing is annoying, cause Ive got Fox Soccer Channel and they are obsessed with Arsenal, Man City, and Chelsea. Really wish theyd share the good matches.
what do you have against pique?
I just thought there might be a few more in existance. Cause youve got plenty of attackers, and your list is supposed to be the authoritative list that the world has to base their decisions off of, I figured that in your almighty wisdom youd grant more than 3 defenders the priviledge of being considered talented.
Many people love United and think they are the best cause, quite simply, we really are good. We’ve won the premiership 9 times, we did the treble, we’ve got the record for FA cup titles, our euro track record isnt so great, but still, we’ve dominated english football for years. Who are you such a fan of that you think is better?
raunaq- Who are you talking to? Me? lol. You know the arsenal fans have arrived: the *s start to show up, and the BS meter just jumps through the roof.
Cesc had a good start to the season, but now his form has died, and so has arsenals chances of anything. Hes good, no doubt, but hes not the best. Form is fleeting, class is permanent. Cesc has stopped playing at the levels he achived at the beginning of the season. Conclusion: it was form, not class.
