Mep: That is hardly the point in my opinion. In a split second they saw it as an opportunity for the team to keep the ball/score. The fact they even considered it, makes it relly great to watch.

but that video of when they are in the game, half of those skills failed. for instance: thiery henrys back heel kick = lost the ball, jay jay okochas overhead (fifa rainbow chip as it likes to call it) flick thing against arsenal crossed the line for a goal kick.
the touzani vs the quick footed jet lee of football video; yeah marvelous couldnt do mostly any of that stuff. the in match skill video is pretty poor to most of the videos out there to look at for in game skills, as like i said, most of them in the video failed and pretty easy to do, especially when theyre simple back heel passes and running with the ball keeping it in the air X_x.
just takes a mind to think of doing it which is impressive, just nothing spectacular.

Yeah, only special players for special teams get to really pull the skills off correctly

maybe that wasnt your point...but it wasnt my point saying i could do all that shit, was simply pointing out it was a poor vid. and i said in that post its impressive to actually think of doing that, so your context is hard to understand. mh
