i will add francesco totti, its crazy that messi have some passes turning not like bergkamp but like xavi. the football need those turn again, crazy playmakers
For me he is the best I’ve ever seen in real life. Amazing skills. The way he could put a team-mate in scoring position is unbelievable. When they place a statue of your image outside the stadium you know he was one of the best players ever in the world, and yes even better then Messi or Ronaldo
I am 57 years old. I have never seen a player with so many talent as Bergkamp. His first touch and intelligence is beyond words. Andi have seen Cruyff, Maradona, Pele, Beckenbauer, Messi and many more players. But no one has a better first touch than Bergpkamp. A genius!!
Too young to have seen the young JC at the top of Ajax reign ,So stop saying things that you know nothing about. Everybody has their own " best ever" player , How can you compare JC with Messi m or v Dijk with DB. Different times, different football , ,pitches,shoes etc.etc. It's like comparing apples and pears . Me,I would sooner die than naming a non Ajax player as the GOAT. Thank god there is so much choice . But I would forever be comparing all these incredible Ajax players, Guess I'm double lucky .Amsterdam And Ajax .😅
EVERY LITTLE THING HE DID WAS MAGIC!!! 🎵🎶 I watched this whole video with a huge grin on my face. I’m jealous of all the Arsenal fans who had a season ticket in the years when Bergkamp played for them. There’s a reason why they made a statue of Dennis Bergkamp. 🧡🧡🧡
The way he can bring any ball under control and deliver an accurate shot or pass in a split second is unsurpassed. There is so much accuracy in his movements. And he is not egoistic about it, no goalgetter, no going at it himself when a pass is better. He is a great team player and nice personality. Well done Dennis, you gave us a great time.
The player that I fell in love with watching and so supported Arsenal. His football IQ was unreal, not the fastest or the strongest but possibly the brainiest footballer I've seen. Such flair and touch, he may not have the most assists but the way he opened so many teams up was beautiful. His goal against Newcastle at the start of these clips for me is the best goal I've still seen, never seen it replicated its so unique. Im grateful I was alive to at least watch him for the last few years of his career.
Underrated ??? In the Netherlands he is regarded only second to Johan Cruijff ( and we can debate that if im speaking honestly ) He has achieved God tier level of recognision and respect here.
@@SenericVan Basten? Gullit?.. Both greater IMO, MVB at least. And Robben comparable. Not as technically talented but I'd say him and Bergkamp have a similar legacy and level of effectiveness at their best. Then what about Neeskens, Rijkaard, Seedorf, Koeman even... although they played at very different positions compared to DB, they are probably comparable in terms of perceived greatness (debatable obviously). But Cruyff is undoubtedly above, c'mon.
Very, very special player. Nobody can be taught what players like Bergkamp could do, it came to him naturally, all you can do is cultivate their gift, which we don't really see today with all this stat based football, "shoot low, play it into the box for tap ins" and choosing players to train at a young age based on strength and speed over skill and intelligence. Back when football really was an entertainment sport, and players could dazzle you with magic on the pitch.
I love how you people in England really love sports. Even against the netherlands at eurocup 2024 you guys were the first to question the penalty. That is some amazing sportsmanship. You guys are the best.
As a Spurs fan,even i had acknowledge the force that was the e@rly 2000 Arsenal Team..And i followed Dennis after seeing him at Inter Milano and he was frightening ( The speed of a Greyhound) but their system did'nt allow him to shine but for Holland and Arsenal he was Platinum.. Skills,speed,strength vision..He could do pretty much as he pleased!
i am a Feyenoord supporter. But Dennis was for me one of the best players ever! The guy was just poetry in motion. The goal against Newcastle. Just out of this world! ❤
9:02. This was his best first touch imo. And he had a lot of great ones. Against Barcelona this one was. Will never forget it. What a phenomenon he was.
At first touch execution, whether it is for himself or one touch passes and goal attempts, Bergkamp might be the best ever. I think that only Ronaldinho might be comparable to him on that aspect of the game. And I think it benefits the team so much
Still not sure of what adjective to use in describe this man, his just absolutely ?????? And still dont believe some fools are still arguing whether he meant to do that skill for the newcastle goal, dude was a f**king genius, he needs no validation from anyone.
@@RFED2O You didn't watch Cantona. His style is very similar. Can't believe you compared the 2 without any knowledge. Bet you didn't watch either of them.
Cantona and Bergkamp defined the second striker position along with Totti and Del Piero. Unbelievable players all of them. Cantona's skill level was just ridiculous. It's insane how he's kind of the underrated one these days. His peak was probably the highest out of them. That position doesn't really exist now at high levels. They'd probably all get coached to be AM or #10 now and would be kind of expected to be more athletic. Imagine any of them with modern coaching and training. They'd be absolute monsters in the modern game
1:06 He's running and waiting for the ball to bounce up. Then he takes it with his right foot, controls it with his left, spins around, faces the goalie, and boots it with his right foot. GOD-LEVEL SKILL!
He was unbelievable, what say and which comment put here, is enough to see how he played , and what magic he did with ball. That touch , asist and shot that is master piece . One and only unforgettable Denis Bergckamp !!
How many players you know, who started as a successful striker and later became an equally successful playmaker for the club as well as for a national team? This man did
Missed most of this because English soccer was unavailable on Dutch TV at the time. So many thanks ,also on behalf of many other football fans I'm sure !
Maybe not the GOAT footballplayer of all the time. But definitely the greatest 'artist' to ever lace up and grace the footballfield with his art. Bergkamp playing football is poetry in motion.
@@AJcompsHD Yes, its in Dutch but here v Persie talk about his all time hero Dennis Bergkamp. (the titel is in Dutch so Over means About) ruclips.net/video/L0KtGJml0l4/видео.html
When someone compares him with Zidane, Rivaldo, Ronaldinho, Del Piero, Nedved, Shevchenko, Kaka, etc., please consider, Bergkamp’s physical prime was not in 2000s, but 1992-93. No famous professional footballer has been equally successful striker, who became a phenomenal playmaker in later years. Bergkamp did … We will acknowledge his influence on football as time will pass
Queria muito ter visto o Bergkamp jogando com os promissores jovens meias que o Arsenal revelaria nas temporadas seguintes, Fábregas; Rosicky; Wilshere; Ramsey; Cazorla etc....
Im born 2003 seen messi and Ronaldo.. ozil, alacantra thaigo etc era.. have knowledge of talent like Best, Zidane, etc but when i first saw Berg's clips 😮
Seeing this (as a Dutchie) makes me realize Bergkamp was the Best of the Best Ever, now I understand why Henry said the best player he ever played with was Bergkamp and not Messi, the Reason why he never won a Ballon D'or could be because there was so much competition of great players in those days and nowadays Messi vs Ronaldo, are they really that great or do they not have as much competition as players like Bergkamp back in the days, cause I bet you that you can name alot more of really good players back in those days then now, thanks for the post ❤
Bergkamp was my football hero when I was a little kid, the one that inspired me and the one I wanted to copy. I remember during training at my amateur club we attempted to try the thing he did during that famous newcastle goal, im still convinved physics doesnt allow it and after destroying our knees we all settled on recreating it with the outside of our right feet instead. 😂
Today's "superstars" can only dream of such ball control. Notice that most goals here are against a "set defence" ....not counter attacks. He doesn't need 50 square meters behind the defender, doesn't need 2 players overlapping. He uses skill and creativity. Today's players can only run...but not play.
When you watch this he is a player from another world, other level, his level, no one comes close.. An underrrated , 'forgotten player .Most of the time when people are talking about great players on tv , no one mentions Bergkamp. You know them all; Messi ,Maradonna, Ronaldo, Curijff, Pele , v Basten , Gullit.etc. But no one had the technique and football intelligence of Bergkamp No one. A very modest player and gentleman. Maybe thats why he is "forgotten".
The only setback he had he was scared to fly, otherwise he be mentioned allot more often. 1 of the most skillfull players i have ever seen, vision touch pass this men had it all.
I think that might be because he was used to having so much control. It might have been hard to put himself in a situation where he had no control whatsoever. Elk voordeel heb zn nadeel ;)
Nobody currently playing football comes close to Bergkamp and Zidane's intelligence. These two were geniuses.
i will add francesco totti, its crazy that messi have some passes turning not like bergkamp but like xavi. the football need those turn again, crazy playmakers
Well Iniesta is still playing so....!!
He is also in the level of those two
Messi..
@@hector622no, riquelme instead
Zidane, and Bergkamp play ugly football. Prefer Eric Cantona and Thierry Henry.
Berkgamp had the best control & first touch I have ever witnessed. 👍

same. saw him play 3 times. each time witnessed something special.
True.
Couldn't agree more. He could do it all. Current players, especially Dutch players like Memphis who thinks he can play, pale in comparison.
True man. Nice point - thats like it is )
Intelligence, angles, weight, elegance. Beautiful. The GOAT.
Not only a genius at football but also a very very nice and normal man in daily life.
Oh really? How do you know?
@@drunkensailor112 Discreet, nice n normal man in the life n a genius on the pitch.
Seeing Dennis play is pure poetry.
How he touches the ball, to receive, pass....like it is an Art. Sublime!
Played on snow, didn't leave footprints...❗️❄️
he made the players he played with better, that a gift that not many have
He had a touch made out of silk. Fantastic player!
in my opinion the greatest of all time
the GREATEST PLAYER TO EVER PLAY FOOTBALL
When looking at the beauty of play, then Bergkamp is definitely the goat.
I truly think that on a technical level he is as skilled as Messi
Technicaly i agree
@@TheStoicus Bergkamp is soooo better than Messi
#1 in terms of decisions on the field > Zidane in terms of that easily )

@@iwanbottos5128 do you mean me? I have seen Cruyff playing at Barcelona, and later for Ajax and Feyenoord. So I know what I am saying.
I remember being in a state of shock when Bergkamp signed for Arsenal. A genuine world class superstar at our club. Well done, Bruce Rioch!
David Dein signed him. He was the visionary at the club.
What a hero he was and what an insight he had! He made me feel proud to be Dutch!!!

After Cruijff.

One of my favorite player of all time.
Defenitly the best, most complete player ever👌 A joy to watch these videos.
Technically The Best Player Ever To Play In England.....
Bergkamp is a underrated player. and still is
Just like Maradona made Napoli relevant Bergkamp did for Arsenal. His first touch is the best ever.
More Barca Cruijff

Absolutely one of the best ever

Poetry in motion. Spades of elegance and an IQ to match.

Yeah Dennis Bergkamp 😎A.k.a. Dennis the Menace, Bergy, The Non-Flying Dutchman, Iceman, God. But one of the absolute good football players indeed 💪🏾

C’est vrai. Un génie du football. Lui et Zidane les rois du contrôle de balle.
Indeed, he was one of the best of that generation. He had excellent ball control and he was extremely energetic👍
A clockworker, finesse, precision and making things tick.
He reminds me a bit of Cantona. That mid to late 90s early 2000s had the best ballers. Pure footballers. The pureness wasn't coached out of anyone.
No chance whatsoever...
Bergkamp will ALWAYS piss over players like that frog...

How many players you know, who started as a successful striker and later became an equally successful playmaker for the club as well as for a national team? This man did
can't name 1 to be honest , others just did the oposite but this is legendary
Cruijff and Maradona did too. Only few can transform from top striker to top playmaker, indeed.
Arsenal's greatest ever player. Also the best player to never win a ballon d'or.
03:06 Master of the first touch
What an absolutely FANTASTIC compilation and TRIBUTE to D.B. very very well done!. What a great Work and Effort! 👍
Great skill from the non flying dutchman! On the pitch he is one of the very best❤
Bergkamp e Hanry ,os dois melhores jogadores da história do Arsenal.
In my top 5 of all time soccer players!
Unbelievable Player
Thank you Dennis
Him and Zidane had so much technical class. It was art. Every touch a pleasure to watch. Bergkamp played most beautiful, Zidane had more impact.
If there’s one person who encapsulates Alan Partridges “liquid football”, it’s Denis Bergkamp.
Missed most of this because English soccer was unavailable on Dutch TV at the time. So many thanks ,also on behalf of many other football fans I'm sure !
