Can I just say that James is so underrated in general. The editing he puts into his videos, the way he interviews guests so casually but still gets great answers from them and his football knowledge is genuinely just impressive. This guy should honestly be so much more popular.
This is fast becoming one of your best segments. I would love to see a couple of people giving their dream teams. Flav obviously. True Geordie. Paul Machin. But most of all I would love to hear Ped from Toffee Tv talk about his dream team
I'm a Chelsea fan and in regards to Rooney I think he is massively disrespected, fully agree with Mark that time will serve him well. For me Rooney is the player who I have seen at the Bridge that I have been most worried and scared about (and I have seen the likes of Messi and more there), in his prime with the AIG shirt on there was nothing you could do to stop him, the most complete striker in my mind. He also created such a legacy for me, it sounds silly, but through wayne rooneys street striker, that show really started an incredible love for football for me, also if you ask many people my age, including me, what their favourite boots are they will say the total 90's, which were famously worn by him. This on top of his ridiculous talent makes him one of the best players ever for me.
@@thegenerator3150 Kane is out doing him at a way worse team than Rooney you made my point imagine Kanes stats at Man Unt at that time would blow Rooney away and He was great but cummon no way Rooney puts up Kane stats at spurs no chance
If you think sir Alex wouldn't have taken Kane now over almost anyone in that period you are seriously deluded - he would have broken the bank for Kane
@@wojeeee I rate Rooney very highly saw his whole career am exactly the same age and watched him play live at least 25 times... saying Kane 'stats' would be better is not dissing Rooney - I don't think its a particularly close argument but I didn't say better player... that's different ? - Rooney had other strings to his bow
Love how feelings based this series is, missing out on this with current football, great work Jim Edit: Rooney despite everything off the pitch made me fall in love with football, such an audacious talent
Rooney is under appreciated as a player imo. All round game was immense and his goals speak for themselves. I'm speaking as a Liverpool fan too. Maybe it's because he looked a bit like Shrek?
He'd probably have 100 more goals if he hadn't spend most his time dicking about in midfield and defending for no reason, stepping on the toes of actual midfielders like Kagawa who had to play out of position because of him.
18:44 and he was tall and kind of well-built as well. For Maldini to play LB going up and down the wings was amazing. The AC Milan defence of Mauro Tassotti, Franco Baresi, Alessandro Costacurta and Paolo Maldini was probably the best backline of all time
The moment mark finds out maldini was right footed 5 mins after saying he had a wonder left foot. Feel like too many people go on about these 90s legends without watching that much of them. He is one of the best though so deserve to be picked.
In regards to Rooney the stats speak for themselves, achieved multiple titles, top all-time goalscorer for club n country, every manager he played under when fit played him. Had great awareness, movement, killer pass, low centre of gravity, quick turn, powerful shot. As a footballer he could do just about everything. Just a phenomenal talent that read the game so well. If he were in his prime now I still think he'd make England's first XI and probably be most people's first name on the team sheet. Just an elite footballer. Also he's an Evertonian so you know he's got good taste.
i'm a united fan and Rooney is an absolute legend, i think some are harsh on Rooney because after Euro 2004 Rooney never had a good international tournament, he was the golden boy who never performed in tournaments and it will always be used against him that yes he's england's top scorer but what did he do in world cups? 1 goal in 3 world cups is not good enough. also debatable life choices people judge him on, but i agree time will be kind to him.
Those who saw Gascoigne know he was different! credit for mark putting it forward - off the field and injuries killed him as a footballer but was so fun to watch at spurs in particular
Love this series James! Hope to see more of it soon. The kick off lads would be great of course, along with boultwood, Hugh wizzy and even Blue van man would be really interesting.
Gk: Buffon Rb: Carlos Alberto CB: Baresi CB: beckbenbaur LB: Maldini Cm: viera CM: cruyff CM: Pirlo LW: Ronaldo Cf: Messi RW: Best Honorable mentions to Eusebio, John Charles and R9
I've followed football since the early 70s so I've seen my share of great footballers: My fave 11: Schmeichel Cafu, Beckenbauer, Krool, Maldini Maradona, Cruyff (captain) , Messi, Zidane Gerd Müller, Van Basten That team just can't be beat!
Buffon Alves, Ramos, Chielini, Cole; Dembélé, Xavi, Iniesta; Messi, Defoe, Villa Gone with the Les Ferdinand no defensive midfielder approach, based purely on affection rather than who’s the best.
When I think of my introduction and love for football the 1st players that come to mind in a team are Buffon Gary Neville Rio Ferdinand Maldini Roberto Carlos C.Ronaldo Scholes Kaka Ronaldinho Ronaldo Van Nistelrooy
as a united fan wayne rooney is my all time favourite player and i think it’s important to note i wasn’t really even watching football in the seasons like 08, as i was only 3. But i love rooney and even late into his career he always had that fire about him even if it wasn’t as noticeable. i always think of the fa cup final against palace where we needed a goal and he ran from about the half way line past 3 or 4 players and put in a beautiful ball which mata ended up scoring. anyway yh wazza was incredible and weirdly under appreciated.
Problems with Gascoigne started soon after his move from Newcastle to Spurs, up here he had his mates who knew what he was like and would look after him. In London, he tried to replace those mates and those people took advantage of him (cause as you rightly say, he's mentally like a child in that he was far, far too trusting of people). For his career, he should have stayed in Newcastle for some more years and then moved onto a strong manager. Somewhere like Barcelona with Bobby or United with Fergie.
In my opinion Wayne Rooney is one of the greatest premier league players of all time. Not just because of the goals he scored but because of the way he would and could play everywhere on the pitch very well and that assist for RVP 😍😍
i wholeheartly agree with the previous comments James, you mos def should get the True Geordie regulars even former commentators eg Hugh Wizzy as to their Dream Team, really enjoy not just their reasons for the selections but the depth it provides as to each individuals' personal history with football such as whom they liked watching, what they appreciate the most, why they appreciate the skills a certain footballer displayed that they liked, whom they were influenced by etc
1:05:24 that SF against Holland was a classic Ronaldo game. He was man-handling the likes of Jaap Stam, Frank De Boer, so much so that they were bouncing off him.
Really enjoyable video. Full of Nostalgia. As a Liverpool fan living through the 90s and 00's United players will always be terrifying to me. Hate them but they were just so so good.
Already perfected the format, Jim. Spot on. And a great 11 from Mark, particularly with the Sir Bobby nod. An absolute legend of the game and a lovely bloke.
The moment that signified the end of Rooney for me was the champions league tie against Real Madrid in Fergies last season when he was left out for the second leg. You knew then for certain he wasn’t the same player. Had good moments that season and even under Moyes but you just knew he was no longer indispensable.
Already love this series! Would be great to see more guys from the kickoff and also maybe some people from the FIFA community like AJ3. Ethan or Tobi from the Sidemen would of course be amazing but propably much harder to get. Keep up the good work!
Wayne Rooney... strange one. Alot of respect for him, a lot of love for him to be honest as a player. His name makes him a big media star, but him as a person i think is not really arsed about the spotlight. Dont agree with what he did to Coleen of course, but that aside he's got a nice family and you can tell he just wants to play football (and now manage) then go home and play with his kids. Most of his social media posts are either football related or to do with his kids . The thing is, he's just left a sour note in United fans mouths with those comments he made that time. He was half right to call the club out for their ambition, and I'm sure alot of United fans would agree. But it was the manner of the City mentions and stuff like that, saying he'd join them and so on. Also, calling out United in 2021 is completely different to 2011. Back then we had Fergie who could win a league with Anderson and Cleverley in CM, so the ambition (almost) didnt matter as Fergie's genius masked the Glazers not giving a shit. And as a result Rooney should probably have been a bit more grateful to realise this is the greatest manager ever, so should trust in what he does and if he wanted to not bother buying Ozil and instead play Anderson or Cleverley then he had the god given right to do so. But its more apparent that in 2021 you need the owners to seriously back us to be the best, which they only half arsed do, top 4 and thats allthey care about. So if a prime Rooney calls United out in 2021 we're not arsed as fans. But in 2011, the timing was poor really and is why it tarnishes him. Other than that, superb player and deserves more praise from the wider footballing world than he gets. Sorry for the essay Jimbo lad. x
1:04:46 its funny because people swear by that the 2002 Brazil team was one of the best teams of all time. But what people omit is that before the World Cup, in the Copa America 2001, Brazil were beaten by Honduras in the QF, in the qualifiers they finished 4th, something 3-4 points ahead of 5th place which would have put them in the playoffs against Oceania. The mystique of that team actually grew when Ronaldinho became a 2 time World Player of the Year and Kaka became the player that he became. But back in 2002, Ronaldo didn't play for 2.5 years with 3 surgeries, Rivaldo came off one of the worst seasons in Barcelona and both Ronaldinho and Kaka were relative unknowns. The only two players who were looked at us consistents was Cafu and Roberto Carlos. And then heading into the tournament most people thought Italy, France and Argentina were better built teams to win. Well France and Argentina crashed out in the group stages and Italy got knocked out in that controversial Round of 16 tie against South Korea
I like the concepts of this videos. Really do. But I would just hope there is some variety. Because its still very Premier League dominated. Because you can't have a dream team of the 90s and early 2000s and not have the likes of Ronaldo🇧🇷 or Zidane in the team 1:01:45 thank you Mark for putting Ronaldo🇧🇷 in your 11. Easily the best player from the 90s to the early 2000s.
This was really interesting, particularly hearing the reasoning behind each choice. I'm sure its got everyone thinking of their elevens - so difficult to decide who to leave out! Will defo keep an eye out for more of these!
Cool discussion, as Man United fan for life this was awesome. I found myself in nostalgia mode, thanks Goldbridge. Zidane is a must in midfield, as Maldini is in defense. Not all the way through yet but Thierry Henry must be there. We'll see. Keep up the great work and go Red Devils.
To achieve the lofty heights of United under Sir Alex is as we shall all see generational. Magic like that is rare, engaging and let's face it unforgettable . Looking back I have no choice but to recognize that to ascertain such heights and maintain them at that level indefinitely is simply unrealistic. That is what makes them so special. One thing is certain the foundation fostered and nurtured by Sir Alex is the stuff of legends.
I hate the debate that Messi was born with god given talent but Ronaldo was pure hard work. If you are building the perfect footballer you build Ronaldo not Messi. Just facts Init.
40:00 no Diego Maradona. Hmm probably because Mark didn't catch the 86 World Cup, because he did say when Diego died that he waa the greatest players he has ever seen.
Have to agree with Mark. Time has already been kind to Rooney. He was a 'Great' for me whilst there, now a certain 'Legend'. Unbelievable player at points of his career.
Rooney got destroyed when united forced him to play with an ankle injury but they just kept injecting him with pain killers at half time so he could play on
The comment about Cafu's poise and balance over the ball is underrated. You can just tell with some of the naturally best players. Clarence Seedorf had that kind of poise, always in complete control of the ball and his body.
Don't particularly agree with some of the things Mark came out with in this video but that is an unreal team 😂Experience, athleticism, physicality, stamina, tenacity, desire, all throughout the team. Some horrible bastards to play against like Schmeichel, Vidic, Kean and Rooney. Sprinkled in with the 2 of the best forwards in history and a dash of Geordie magic. Well played Goldy Son.
THANKS FOR WATCHING! Massive thanks to Mark for coming on 👊Who would you like to see next on Dream Teams? 👇
Would absolutely love maych or pajak, bloody good laugh but also know their stuff!

Top quality series Jim. It's so good that it doesn't matter who the guest supports, it's still more than watchable.
Get all the kickoff boys to have a go at this...Loz, Brian, McKola and Buvey would all be interesting.
Not Mckola
Brian would be crap. Only player he knows is Shearer.
Buvey only started watching football in 2010

18:44 and he was tall and kind of well-built as well. For Maldini to play LB going up and down the wings was amazing. The AC Milan defence of Mauro Tassotti, Franco Baresi, Alessandro Costacurta and Paolo Maldini was probably the best backline of all time

1:03:12 not to mention he scored 47 goals in 49 games in his only season at Barcelona in the 1996/97 season, a feat which unheard of in the 90s.
Glad to see the Roy Keane love, think he gets massive underrated by people now days
Rooney's last world class season was under David Moyes. 19 goals 14 assists. Carried the team that season.

Talking of longevity in footballers when talking about Cafu, Teddy Sheringham started in 1983 and played until 2008!
Problems with Gascoigne started soon after his move from Newcastle to Spurs, up here he had his mates who knew what he was like and would look after him.

Some horrible bastards to play against like Schmeichel, Vidic, Kean and Rooney. Sprinkled in with the 2 of the best forwards in history and a dash of Geordie magic.
Well played Goldy Son.
Great video mate
Love this. What a series.
These videos are great keep up the great work !
I’m from America so I wasn’t born into a team and Rooney is why I’m a United fan. He was breathtaking
