Punks No Deid Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Watching the clips of Juanjo n his wee tricks etc.. got me remembering Tam Flogel in the 98 cup final with his wee flick over the hun defender (can't remember which one)- fond memories, anyone else got similar acts of class by a jambo they hold in similar high regard?

Tazio Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 The wee flicktrick from Takis that used to be in the opening credits for Sportscene. I'm still not 100% sure what he did as it was so fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheiky Baby Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Beslija against Dundee Utd (or maybe Aberdeen?) Long ball up to the right and he controlled it on his noggin to the byline for the cross. Absolute class! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it was some kind of stepover, with a flick from his trailing leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigO Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Wee Jose Quitongo. Total circus act and would fall over the ball as much anything but would just occasionally do something which'd leave you blinking! Suso's torn a few to shreds with tricks. Can't think of any particular one occasion (sure there was one the byline where he dragged it back and heel flicked behind the defender and got it on the other side....against maybe Celtic???) What about Stevo against Motherwell - if that'd went it instead of hitting two posts, it'd have been some goal. Away from Hearts, Jay-Jay Okocha was always my fave for this type of stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the greatist tricks ever, not just in a maroon jersey. have seen it a hundred times and still not sure how he pulled it off TAKIS, SHOW THEM YOUR MEDALS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBjambo Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Sad to say so but... Larry had some sublime skills when he first started with us and would regularly showboat... till he lost interest. Also, deep breath... Nade! He had some great close control and I remember him keeping the ball away from about half a dozen of the opposition (can't remember who though!) during one game at Tynie with some truly awesome clsoe control and wee stepovers... for a big lad he had great ball control... shame he was never able to produce the goods or goals on a weekly basis! I agree with earlier poster that Ricardo was pretty much brilliant on the ball as well. Stevo's back heel trick is one of the best I've seen this season and it would have been a goal of the season contender had it gone in too! Think wee Temps and Novikovas may well have some decent tricks in their locker too... we may see that next season! But my all time favourite from recent years is Takis (sportscene titles!)... the guy had it all... and was a true gent to boot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debut 4 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Everything Ricardo Fuller ever did David Templeton v half the hibs team in the first derby of this season (I think it was the first anyway) Fuller could have scored an even better derby goal than Temps. I remember when he picked the ball up on the edge of our box and ran(almost) the length of the park only to slide his shot into the side netting at the end of the run. Think it was during the 2-1 win there under Levein. Not the Stampy one , one earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter_hmfc Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 The legend Ruuudi Skacel did a nice overhead flick in his first spell with us that I've always remembered. I think it was against Aberdeen. The game was already won, time was running out and he was down at the corner flag near the Main Stand and the Gorgie Stand. One on one with a defender he flicked it over his head, making it look so easy. I remember the commentator saying "Rudi Skacel now, going through his repetoire of tricks.", if that helps describe what game it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very nice! Mines was a different one though. He flicked it up and over his head. I think the ball went out of play but still great to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonraker Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Bobby Prentice debut, picked ball up in his own half, beat about six or seven (Maybe Dundee) players had a shot that nearly went in. I remember my brother and I looking at each other in amazement and saying "How the hell did Celtic let him go?" We probably got the answer over the years as the many acts of sheer brilliance were balanced out with just as much mediocrity. On his day though, a fantastic showman.

Napier Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Also, deep breath... Nade! He had some great close control and I remember him keeping the ball away from about half a dozen of the opposition (can't remember who though!) during one game at Tynie. It was St Mirren, he had about five of them all being held off. Classic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Moore got ripped (raped) n yet was still regarded as a defender in the top drawer bracket. At the end of the day, it's a game of 2 halves and the boy had potential, bearing in mind that you will never win anything with youngsters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambo19 Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 I remember Ricardo Fuller against Motherwell, standing on the line at the Roseburn End with the ball behind him, he flicked it up and over his head and the defenders head, ran round his man as it dropped and volleyed it just wide. He did it for stoke but it never worked as the defender got there, but he pulled it off v motherwell http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XiywSzsBrI Also as mentioned the Fyssas flick which was on the intro to scotsport or sportscene was brilliant. Anyone got a video of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One fine piece of skill that sticks in the mind was Jose Quitongo. We were playing Aberdeen at Tynie, he was on the left side shooting towards the Roseburn end, he was screaming for to receive a cross, it was duly given, he'd ran slightly ahead of where he was expecting it but he stopped, waited, backheeled the ball over his head, took a touch, ran towards goal, skinned about 3 of their players and took a volley at goal and it just touched the crossbar as it dipped and over for a goalkick, goal of the season had it dropped in!
