- Zlatan is an enigma, isn't he?
Dude's been around for decades and just keeps on winning. There's a stereotype that players become obsolete after turning 30- I don't think Zlatan got the memo.
Today, we take a look at how he's somehow gotten better and better with age.

10 years from now: How good is Zlatan really after turning 40?
permanently injured
@@comfee he's getting the same injuries as most professional players 5+ years younger than him but usually in his case it's because he goes all in almost all the time instead of running away from potentially dangerous situations. you should consider the average age of wild lions, considering this makes him quite some exceptionally long-lasting lion.
U mean 50
@Guy Whose opinions will offend you good comment
In 300 years how good has zlatan been in his 330s
To people who say he's arrogant: I think he's pretty self aware about what he's doing, and you can see in interviews he's actually quite a down to earth guy. Also: how boring would the sport be if there were no big personalities like Zlatan, willing to talk trash before the game or hype themselves up. If everyone just said the same things about working hard and trying their best, there would be no reason to show up at press conferences or interviews.
He has NPD
It's a way to build image and then capitalize on it no one knows him in real life
@@normalizedinsanity4873 according to what
His idol is Ali
He’s still Arrogent
You could have mentioned that in the game vs England he scored 4 goals after reporters talking smack about him
True!
@@FootballIconic btw great video
Including one of the most insane goals anyone ever pulled off on a football pitch. And he didn't have to do it either, a 'normal' player would have controlled the ball and resumed the attack. Not Zlatan, though.
@@gaiusjuliuspleaser yea
Zlatan's combination of incredible athleticism, football genius and marcial arts allows him to be arguably the most impressive finisher of his generation. For me, the best finisher of his generation, who proved himself in literally every top 5 league apart from bundesliga
He should go to bayern to replace lewa and proves himself that he can do it in all top 5 league 😂
@@saminsukardii8517 good call
Martial arts
Wayyy better than cr7 Messi and every one for sure
@@saminsukardii8517 maybe Leipzig kuz forsberg is there
Zlatan doesn't age, age Zlatans.
He's the Chuck Norris of football. xD
That’s so true
There will never be another player like Ibrahimovic. Its gonna be a sad day when he retires.
True, you can get great driblers, great shooters, pacers, but what he could do, no one can ever do it. His football is unique and thrilling.
Enter Erling Haaland...
(From a Liverpool fan)
@@JonMadd I see Haaland peaking young and retiring before 36, there's nothing wrong with that, but Zlatan is just built different.
So you mean when retires in 30 years right?
@@JonMadd lmao if you think haaland is like zlatan you havent watched him , excellent dribbler , skiller , outside of box , inside of box , passing , assisting , not much runs because he is a creator not an assisted scorer like haaland who runs forward and gets assisted by de bruyne
Hands down one of the most entertaining footballers in history. Never a dull moment with Zlatan on the pitch.
Unpopular opinion :
Zlatan psg side with thiago silva pastore cavani etc are arguably better than neymar and mbappe psg side...
mbappe and neymar psg cant even win 2020-21 ligue 1. The only thing this squad achieve is getting to 2020 ucl final but if we look into it they only need to beat bvb atlanta and rb leipzig...
The zlatan psg side only loses in ucl to prime barca with msn, chelsea and city
I don't think that's unpopular. It's definitely arguable. There was a lot more balance to the 2015 side in my opinion. Both are really good teams though
I don't think it's arguable...
Being a fan and watching that season was definitely one that was well-rounded in leadership and skill. Zlatan was the leader, but his sergeants like Cavani, Thiago Silva, Matuidi, and Sirigu were able to hold up the team with or without Zlatan. Laurent Blanc was also a legend of France and was able to keep everyone in check in a strong humble manner. The only talker was Zlatan, the rest stayed silent until they were on the pitch. I miss that team very much and think that they deserved the champions league more than any team.
Being better is arguable but they definitely had more souls compared to mbappe neymar era and as a viewer thats really important.
Even though the other video is 10 months old I'd say that this is a perfect point in time to end and document the 30-40 phase of Zlatan.
Can't wait to see the next 20 years of this youngster!
I bet he will retire at 69 years.
@@Error-ck4jg that would be nice
@@Error-ck4jg very nice indeed
Marco Reus vid? Really enjoyed the vid
Yesss I’d love to see a reus video, especially with his outstanding production
He is one of my favorite strikers of all time and the fact that he does martial arts aswell, makes him worthy of so much respect.
seeing as footballers players are often weak and play and flop around like little drama queens.
When there are rough and hard players that go all for it, physically without acting like children in cases like Zlatan, Gattuso, Roy Keana, Viera and Oliver Kahn well they stand out.
100% agree
Football players are not weak mate. They flop around like little drama queens. sure, but they are not weak. Everyone you talk about played in a previous generation - nowadays referees don't give penalties unless you fall over. Unfortunately they fall around because the referees don't punish diving and they basically never give penalties unless you fall down.
@@senseihello well there's a few young player that don't dive like "drama queens", haaland is the most famous example, being an ac milan fan I would name tonali as well
My my top striker
Zlatan is honestly becoming underrated at this point, such a complete striker with his scoring, dribbling, vision and insane physicality and athleticism and we all know about his consistency and longevity. He’s definitely up there with Suarez and Lewa as the best strikers of their generation
Buffon is definetly the greatest goalkeeper to have never won the Cl. He played 3 Cl finals and lost all 3 over a 25yr long carrer in the top flight for Italys best clubs
Wait did Ronaldo de Lima ever win the UCL?
He's talking at goalies and R9 didn't win it he barely played in the champions league
Wdy mean that is stacked he had 2 good yr at madrid before he completely got destroyed by the injuries that madrid side were shite defensively and had no dm nothing R9 could do abt that
@@opinionatortv6457 he technically was part of the Milan squad in 2007 but for the rules at that time he couldn't play in the Champions League because he played a match with Real previously that season... So he helped us getting 4th in Serie A but didn't win the CL with his team mates
Man is a beast Tinashe, every team he joins goes up a level. He brings some ability but above all a Lions Mindset!
the fact that this guy keeps constant bangers and still don't have at least 200k subs is insane.
every video is a banger,hope all good to this guy who keeps posting banger after banger.
edit:also his editing skills are insane and it's also amazing compared to other creators
Legendary...
One of the few player to actually make my heart sink, out of my butt, during an international match. 😑
The players that always come to mind in terms of the greatest to never win the champions league (out of those who could have conceivably won it so no Maradona or Pele) are Ronaldo, Matthaus, Buffon and Ibrahimvoic, whether you put him top or bottom of that list of 4 it’s pretty good company to be in (I’d personally say he’s the second greatest not to have won it just behind Ronaldo)
You should make a video about Jose Mourinho’s Porto and show how they won the champions league and had so much success in just 2 years
Time to wait 20 years for the upcoming: "How good was Zlatan after 50". What can I say, the youngster's showing great potential
I'm a simple man
I see a Tinashe video, I click very quickly
I see a Zlatan video, I will tear apart the space-time continuum
As impressive as it is that he helped Milan win a title without an ACL, can we also acknowledge how hard it must be for him to generally move about with such a gigantic set of balls?
your legit the best yt for player backgrounds and stuff deserves 1m subs
Thanks man!
@@FootballIconic Better start making a new video : How good is Zlatan after turning 40?
Dude will play for next few years too and I won't be surprised if I see his junior is the coach of his team
Zlatan is a Milan legend! Stats do him no justice, they don't reflect the boost in mentality he had in Milan, and probably his previous teams as well.
his goal against Italy at Euro 04 is still the greatest to me, it's my "Fell in love" moment
Imagine facing an Italy team with arguably some of the best defenders in the World trying to prevent you from scoring and your decision is to use a taekwondo move
The guy is the role model I look up to as I approach my 30s, the dedication and mindset to keep improving and proving everyone wrong is unmatched
Can't wait for the Zlatan after 40 video!
Zlatan has also won the UEFA Super Cup with Barcelona
To think that ibra played this season with a bad injury. Sure he didnt play as much time as we would want but he was crucial for the scudetto
“You wanted Zlatan. I gave you Zlatan.
You are welcome.
Now go back to watching Baseball.”
LMFAO
He did it in Italy what Ronaldo wished to achieve, Saying this despite being a Ronaldo fan.
Zlatan took a real "challenge" and showed everybody how it's done.
True true
I like when Zlatan said - “It’s Zlataning time “
And Ibahemoviced all over the place.
He's in the club of players that I will always remember, the powerful technical giant; a profile we'll probably never see again in football
True... The only player I can think of, who had the same swagger as Zlatan was Cantona... Talking of just Swagger....
Zlatan does not age like fine wine, wine ages like Zlatan.
He may not be the best footballer of all time but he is my favourite for sure.His mentality, will to never give up and prove people wrong is just magnificent.
THE LEGEND IS BACK!! 🔥🔥
0:10
See? Thats where the trouble began.
That smile.
That damn smile.
His talent and character is definitely one of a kind
"42nd year living on this earth", more like the 42nd year of earth having zlatan
I think he is the best striker of this gen and that he shouldn’t be joked around as much since he left clubs every other season and adapting quickly
Today on 5th june 2023
The 🦁 finally retired
What a legend he was ❤❤❤
Many players have played all the way till their late 30s, but few can remain as one of the most influential figures in their teams well into their forties. Zlatan is truly one hell of a footballer.
Zlatan is IMMORTAL!
Boys the football man has dropped another gem
Let's be honest, everyone was waiting for this moment
This man puts in the work every week. Road to 200k here we come!
I’d also like a video on how good were Javier Zanneti, Pavel Nedved, and Fabio Cannavaro really
Always loved Zlatan. He’s one of a kind, talks his shit but backs it up. He’s truly a legend of the game
legendary content mate. thanks for making it!
The sequel we all waited for 🔥
A friend Finding your channel, and then recommended it to me, has brought me back to RUclips, so thank you for that, anyways love the channel keep-it up mate .
🙏🙏🙏 cheers!
I missed most of his prime, but man, what a breath of fresh air he is to the sport. I hope peole appreciated the skill and comedy he brings to the sport.
I honestly miss Zlatan in MLS. It would have been better if he played for a better Team because he didn't have the kind of Support with LA Galaxy. One of my favorite moments of him was when he finally called out the Bullshit "Pay to Play" System that has crippled US Soccer Development for Years. He complained about why he's paying $6k for his kids to play when it's free back in Sweden.
I think Zlatan is charismatic. He definitely has unfinished business. UCL. Perhaps we should hashtag him, so he could prove us wrong again. Can you win UCL after 40 in the modern era of football as a player and be the top of the scoring chart. ;P
Loved it zaltan is a great player for showing long term playing really changing the game, still want my big man David becks video
That'll be a big video!
@@FootballIconic im sure you’ll do it justice as you always do good man
In another day and age Zlatan would be something like a prophet.
Now, Zlatan is just Zlatan. He will enter history as Zlatan, and he shall be remembered as Zlatan.
Maybe in future, other people will become something like a Zlatan.
Zlatan is honestly one of my favorite players. like i even watched ligue 1 and mls becuase he played in it
Great video that really doesn't do him justice. Thats not even a dig at Football iconic, but a big to Zlatan. He is eternal
I’ve been waiting for this
Lol the English media and the pundits were calling zlatan overrated before that demolition job against England btw. I remember it very well and it was funny.
England pundits are trash
"Hey"
"Look at us"
"Who would have thought"
"Not me"
Finally the sequel, Tenashi. I was waiting brother, well done
Hey Great Video once again. I would love to see you do a video on Marco Rues. His incredible story, the hype, and the unfortunate misfortune of his injuries. He is one of my favorite players. I think it would make a good vid.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think Ronaldo Nazario didn’t win the champions league either.
Nah u right
He is on the brink of extending his contract again. This man 👏
We all should accept that this guy is the real TOP G 😎
Zlatan is one of the athletes i respect the most! He is a living legend.
My guy, it would mean so much if you could make a video on how good Emilio Butragueño was. He was a Spanish striker who played for Real Madrid, and was overall a huge legend. Also another player that is very forgotten about would be the legendary Daniel Passarella. He was an Argentine centre-back who became the first ever Argentine to lift the World Cup. It would be very cash money of you to make a video on these legends. But great video, and like Zlatan, you are a lion.
Love the videos
He may be Swedish but there’s everyone in the balkans loves Ibrahimovic
Remember that we are counting age in human years, and not Zlatan years. One year to us is one day to Zlatan.
Also, retirement is scared of Zlatan. It went out and found a job because it was worried Zlatan was coming.
You should have put his quote about Carlos Vela in here...that was golden.
I requested this video about a month ago, and now it's here, Football Iconic, whatta legend.
And Zlatan, yeah, what can be said about Zlatan? He's out of this world.
"Boogie Dinero - Bruce Wayne" in the background was fitting:D. From 06:00 ish...
I LOVE YOU FOOTBALL ICONIC
Do you now ?
pls make a video about Kaka, he is my favorite football player and in my opinion he is the most underrated ballon d’our winner
It's a good thing that you took your time to do part 2 of the video in the end, because since then he won the Serie A again, the first for AC Milan since he was there 11 years ago !
Now what will his 4O's look like? I have no idea tbh. But I wouldn't be surprised to see him going until 44 or even 45. The thing is, he'll want to be in a big club, and at least play as a supersub. So, he might stay at Milan, I think it's the best for him at the moment.
Just sad he never won the Champions League. Going to Barcelona was a mistake, he was so good at Inter, and the Barça style didn't suit him really.
But to have played for Juventus, Inter and AC Milan without being hated is a miracle only he can do ! Wouldn't it be crazy nice if he won the UCL with Milan in his 40's for the first time?! haha
“I AM ZLATAN.”
- ZLATAN Ibrahimovic
Want a talk show between Zlatan and Muller.
The best youngster in the world tbh
I love this guys show⚽️⭐️
💕For that Video (Zlatan a true Legend)
Michael Ballack is one of the greatest players also who did not win the CL.
Legend of the game! 🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥
Either loving him or hating him is false, he's a boss.. how can anyone hate this guy he's just legendary
Zlatan is one of those players I used to not like so much because of his attitude but at the same time I knew he was a beast on the pitch. I "hated" him but with respect. And a lil' bit before he joined Man. Utd., when I was more mature, I started to like him and appreciate him more because I realized that with his attitude football was interesting, both on and off the pitch. And I'm happy that this young man helped one of his many former teams to win a tittle after many years of drought (I know he wasn't the sole reason but helped a lot).
Btw, at 8:01 did you mean... a match made in the Galaxy? ahahahaha
I'll see myself out. Peace.
Best player I’ve seen who’s played football at such a old age
You should do a before and after 30 for CR7 too
The Zlatan is the Zlatan, he is always flamboyant and always backs his words with goals.
I am excited
7 months has passed and he's back
His fitness, conditioning, mentality and well placed arrogance kept Zlatan at the top of his game at age 40. A true definition of a late bloomer granted he was good during his prime years.
It will be very interesting to see you doing video of diago costa
Most of us are Ibra's fans
knew all the information
watched and enjoyed anyway
zlatan is the definition of "if you don't believe in yourself no one else will"
I'm really excited this upcoming youngster everyone is talking about, his name is Zlatan Ibrahimović if I'm not wrong.
Never liked him growing up, but now that we're both old...I gotta love the guy.
It will be interesting to see how long he can continue to influence matches at the top level
clean video .
how about a Giroud video too sometime ?
the fact that he refers to himself in the 3rd person and people love him for it really sais it all. legend.
Tender age of 40
It is Zlatan we are talking about
Put simply, he's the driving force behind why Milan won the Scudetto. Even though he barely played his presence alone gave that side a winning mentality.
