Who is underrating him? He played for his country and big clubs.And you are even mentioning that he was at top scorer at the 98’ World Cup. We need a universal rule book for the word ‘underrated’ in RUclips comments. It’s getting out off hand!🤤
Croat here - well, Croat dad and Dane mum - love both teams a lot, the Denmark team of 98 was great and obv 92 hehe, totes respect for a similarly sized country and what they have achieved : )
@@danielhackett1581 There is so many you could mention from that 90' side. Croatia has been a force to be reckoned with since then, creating world class talent like Kovacic, Rakitic, Mandzukic, Modric, Perisic and i really like Rebic.
Well last night Boksic payed me a beer, he came with his friends in one bar and I was sitting alone and there wasn't any other free table in bar so he asked me can they sit with me, so we dring two beers, great person
World class striker, goes up with best strikers of all time. Scored tons of goals on biggest stages, with unique elegance and class. Very few players in history managed to do that, and do it in that special way. A real joy to watch! Thank you for a video.
In short Davor's goals have been the most enjoyable to watch. Some players score with brut power. S'uker scores with the highest of intelligence that I have seen. Thank you Davor.
If we exclude penalty kicks, his best season in La Liga was in which he scored 14 goals, 18, 19, 14, meaning his average goals in La Liga is 16.25. His numbers are average, in addition to that he has had many bad seasons.
@@youneskazzouh5138 you clueless ...apps count for something too ..Suker in La Liga scored almost 0.5 goals per game and he was not starter right away in Sevilla and especially in Madrid so compared to his minutes he was elite ..he did same in Yugoslavia which was easily top 8 league in Europe
The most elegant striker ever, he just made the best goal keepers ridiculous on that time, i mean Schmeichel, Kopke, Barthez, Vandersar at this at very important and decisive games. My idol and one of the best left foot striker ever, killer, genious, dribling, ball control. The goal against Ireland at 92 min in Zagreb for 1-0 win is one of the most beautiful and difficult goal i ever seen in my life and he made it with so much grace. Davor Šuker and Ronaldo (real one) the best 2 strickers in my heart. Baptistuta and Bergkamp are in the line too.
With todays media hype, Suker would be known like CR7 or Messi, more known then any croatian player today. Those skills of him, that ball control and killer instinct, a complete CF goal scoring machine. He wouldnt olay in Real Madrid or Arsenal or etc if he where not that good. But at those days, you had newspapers instead of fb and ig and tw and your skills wasnt seen on video as much as todays players.
If we exclude penalty kicks, his best season in La Liga was in which he scored 14 goals, 18, 19, 14, meaning his average goals in La Liga is 16.25. Why will we remember him like Messi, Maradona and Ronaldinho? His numbers are average, in addition to that he has had many bad seasons.
He did it simple. He did it in very few touches. But he did it sooo beautiful. He always reminded me in some way basketball players from the old Yugoslavia, some past like Dalipagic and some more recent like Bodiroga or Danilovic. I think it is a question of the training methods, but in some way sports players from this ex-republic look like having repeated movements taken from handbooks for about million times. Each movement is so marked in Suker's case: how he steps on the ball to execute a dribbling, how he controls and shoots without the ball hitting the floor, how he describes a kind of swing when he shoots with some effect, even how he knows in which movement he has to shoot in front of the goalkeeper. It generates the illusion of being slow, but no, it is pure aesthetics by repetition. Thanks for the video.
The reason I always support Croatia, after his performance in France1998. Although I was just a kid then, but that's the only name I still remember in that year!
Pure nostalgia! My football heart belongs to FC Porto. In the 96/97 season, Bobby Robson, José Mourinho, Vítor Baia moved from Porto to Barcelona, as well as Fernando Couto, also a huge FC Porto legend, who in that season moved from Parma to Barcelona. That year was also the first glimpse, to say the least, the world had of Ronaldo Nazário, my personal favourite of all time. Normally I would predictably support Barcelona, but that was also the year of the Euro 96 where Suker scored that wonderful chip shot (and he was actually offside when I believe Asanovic isolated Suker with a 30 meter pass). In that season, Real Madrid signed him as well as Mijatovic. They also had Seedorf, Roberto Carlos, Jarni (also a very talented left footed Croatian). That year I couldn't say wich team I liked better, regardless of the Porto-Barcelona connection. I was 14 years old. Really missed those days.
Eee, ta izjava mu je bila legendarna. I bio u pravu; argentinci sa svojim prenapuhanim Batistutom la-pa-pa, a Vatreni na krilima Šukera u polufinale. A nije puno falilo ni do finala.
Its strange that... When you try to think of the player he mostly resembles, you realize its his teamate Dinnes Bergkamp. They both have marvelous 1st touch, very creative finishing, ability to hold the ball mid field no problem, good playmaking ability and generally a very high IQ.
exactly, he had the specific skills from many other best skilled of that time outside of roberto carlos power shot, and still it was ok, due to the fact his goals were often technical and delicate.
Oh Davor Suker, one of the best talents of the 90's wonderful Striker. Yugoslavia in 90's was an european Brazil, the balkans war killed the golden generation that won young world cup in Chile'87 and in Basketball was exactly the same history, a factory of cracks like Drazen Petrovic, Vlade Divac, Tony Kukoc...etc
Buah!! era un mago con el balón, tecnicamente sublime, regate, disparo y una zurda que no se olvida!!! de los mejores 9 que he visto. Al REal Madrid tenía que haber llegado unos añitos antes!!
Grew up watching him score for nk osijek....met him in las vegas last year bumping shoulders in each other, he was nice enough to take a picture and we chatted for a few minutes.
Kluivert, Van deer sar , Cocu, Davids, del Piero, Owen , Beckham, Klinsmann, Bierhoff,Khan, Smeichel, Henry,Inzagui,Trezeguet ,Paul Scholes, Roberto Carlos,Tafarel, Chilavert,Rivaldo,Cafu,Dida, Dunga, Maldini, Barthez, Lizarazu, Pires, Deschamps, Vieira, Djrkaeff, Marcel Desailly and many more.....1998 when Brasil defeats Denmark in 8vs, and quarters defeats Netherlands in penalty kicks, Argentina do the same vs England, Suker and Croatia defeats Germany 3-0 and France win the final game 3-0 vs Brazil, Zidane and Petit score for his win first world cup in history, Croatia 3rd place , Davor suker first place in goals scored
Šuker had an incredible first touch, as good as Zidane, Bergkamp or Berbatov. His sixth sense for always being in the right place in and around the box was outwordly. After his retirement, we never had such a killer #9 in our team - Mandžukić was brilliant, but he was a totally different player compared to Šuker. Šuker's goals against Denmark and Ireland, when he managed to control a long ball while running in full speed and finish without breaking a sweat are probably my two favorite Croatian goals since we emerged on the scene in the 90's.
Niko kao on. I ne samo kao golgoter, nego i kao asistent, borac... Ali kad on u napadu primi loptu, to je 99% gol. Koliko puta je zabio odlucujuci, doveo iz depre u ludilo... Pravi Nogometas! jedini!
Jedna je stvar za Šukera karakteristicna a to je ako je gol šansa ili kako se kaže zicer u nogometu, onda je to kod Šukera uvijek bio gol. Bio je ubojica , zbog njega sam 96 poceo navijati za Real. To je bila posebna generacija, mijatovic , seedorf, raul , redondo , carlos .. čudo
The crazy fact that he scored 362 goals in his career witch put in perspective, it's atleast 2 times more that any other Croatian striker ever. Here is a example, Petković scored 150+ goals, and compared to Šuker, it's 2.5 times smaller.
One of the most underrated players of his generation..He was the top goal scorer of 1998 WC..
Krishna putra Daasa Yes! He was one of my favourite players!
Totally Agree!!!!! Much better than Benzema for example for younger guys
Who is underrating him? He played for his country and big clubs.And you are even mentioning that he was at top scorer at the 98’ World Cup. We need a universal rule book for the word ‘underrated’ in RUclips comments. It’s getting out off hand!🤤

Great scorer, until he met Spaniard Ana Obregon.
The rest is history
I remember being a Croatia fanatic for the great gunboat Davor Suker! From Argentina 🇦🇷, all my respect!
I remember him playing in France 1998 like it was yesterday. His goal scoring capabilities are still unmatched today 2023.
Best scorer Chile 1987.After 11 years in France 1998 again the best scorer .This means a lot .

@@Augustiinfrantz the Brasilian
For Croatia 69 games 45 goals,really good stats.
Really good number of games
Especially in the 90s. The football in the 80s and 90s was very defensive. Today Suker would have more goals than games.

Very underrated...this man along with Robert Prosinecki are the reason why i love and support Croatia always..
They deserved a better career tho
Prosinečki and Suker both played for Sevilla FC.
@Jerome Syed he was actually the best.
They both played for Real Madrid. Prosinecki was also at Barcelona.

Lol, which idiot besides you underrates him?
Suker... Un verdadero fenómeno... Quienes tuvimos la suerte de verlo jugar, le agradecemos por su magnífica carrera..
Ya podrían aprender un poquito en Nesiry y compañia
Jedan od najboljih Europskih napadača u povijesti.
His first touch was midas. Magic. Had a natural instinct of scoring goals. Also, the way finished says he's intelligent.
The control in that goal against Ireland is sick, he basically traps the ball with one swift touch under his foot
Plus it was goal in the last moment of the match. Can't see that type of goal nowadays
Taj pogodak ih je odveo ne znam tacno dal na Evropsko ili Svetsko prvenstvo
goal in last seconds of match that took Croatia to World Cup
Es war ein Genuss Suker spielen zu sehen. Einer mit der Besten zu seiner Zeit 👍
El mejor!!! Gracias Dávor desde Sevilla!
A very technical player with great composure. Just love to watch him play.

Pure world class striker, his stats and accolades speak volumes. He paid his dues to the game of football, leaving his legacy with the world.
The great generation of Laudrups, Suker, Litmanen, Bergkamp, Kanchelskis and lots of other outstanding players. I warmly remember how they starred.
Amazing first touch and just a great decision maker.

Ne bi dali Šukera ni za 10 Batistuta, jebote Batistuta! 😂

You compare with no.9 god of firenze in serie a? Hahahaha
Man... one of my childhood idols...
Que jugadorazo, no había que envidiarle nada a jugadores actuales, que magia.
para mi Davor mayor que cristiano vi jugar a los dos, pero Davor llevó a su selección a ser mejor tercera del mundo con sus goles.
i love this man. the real goalscorer.
So fluid. Great touch. Killer finish

just came here to see this 02:01 insane control
94 min. Croatia need win or he is out and than come this famous skill from Suker
One of the greatest of all time. As a kid I begged to be nicknamed Suker.
His ball control out of world
One of my favourite strikers in France '98
Suker is the best Coatian player of all times. The most underrated too
For sure. Him, Bokšić and then Luka Modrić.
What a finisher. Pure class.
Finally he got his deserved icon card 😊
Da 😍
He was in fifa 17 i think

He was probably the best player in France 98 until France won the final against Brazil, which shifted it to Zidane. Boban & Suker👌🏾
Who else came here because of fifa 😉

Yh
He is new fifa 21 icon
GAME MASTER that’s Yh he said it
Seems like he'll have good stats, don't know about pace tho, but very good control and positioning which could be crucial in fifa 21
