actually, (obviously not quite as good) i am sort of a zlatan when it comes to dribbling, i just dont have the speed he does, or the strength. i can do any of the moves he does. thats mainly because when i was little i used to entertain myself by going in the backyard and just juggling, yea it was lame but now i can do some pretty sweet tricks :D

i know it doesn't represent european kids fairly at all, but when i played calcetto with all the other kids my age in the italian village i was in last month, i was dribbling circles around them :cool:
Yeah thats what im awful at, juggling. I couldnt do it more then 5 times. But then again you would never get past me on a 1-1 mate.. :cool:

oh yes and ive got a good set play shot.

5 times :D i think the best i did was around 350, but thats when i spend time actually practicing it. im not sure about that 1v1 ... if i end up in germany for WC 2006 maybe we'll try it :cool: my finishing is so-so and shooting is alright but nothing to be envied, but i have very, very accurate long balls and good vision for quick through balls/ one-two's and the like. but as i said, my fitness is crap :down: best mile time is like 5 50, and i cant sprint very well either

Yeah patehtic huh?

Yeah man. I wouldnt mind meeting you- my and my friends are always looking for a new guy to play soccer with and me and my friends are pretty typical level you will find here in Germany, so you can compare yourself with us.

PS. Why does everyone think we are long lost brothers? :groan:

because we share the (apparently INCREDIBLY rare) trait of having medium length dark brown hair. :confused: :D

Is not only that, you also have similar characteristics in the face...

I can play in any position. My favorite is a forward on the left, an attacking midfielder, or a left wing. Not into goalkeeping though.

My left is my better leg, but I use both very well.

Do you play soccer (I'm sure most of you do)..? What's your favorite :)flirt: ) position?

I'm a D/DM LC, (That is centre back, or left back, DM, or a bit on the wing)..

I guess it's because I can use both feet pretty well.. :undecide:

So, what about you guys? Sharing is mandatory :cheesy:

I sued to be a goalkeeper, used to play in Sweden and in a local club here, but hardly ever play eny more. Had quite a bit of petential if I might say so my self, problem is I didnt immidiately start playing here when I moved from Sweden, and when I did, I got injured after 5 months. Sprained my left ankle during basketball with my mates, very nearly tore my ligaments, but luckily it was just a very bad sprain. Couldnt walk for over a month and couldnt rund and do sports for 5, nearly six months, and never really bothered starting again after my injury. My left ankle still isnt what it used to be, if feels very... loose shall we say.


Still, had things gone my way, meaning had I continued playing when I first moved here and had I avoided that injury I'm confident that I would be in the U-19 or the U-21 NT by now. Was pretty good while in Sweden.

Still, those bloody swedish coaches are way too nice, I got suspended for two months afer openly mocking a an opposition striker who missed (or I saved actually) 3 one on ones against me in a single half. Told me later that it wasnt very nice, and I didnt play on goal for the next two months.

Had my fair share of stunning saves, but also misstakes, especially when I played here. Never really got into my comfort zone, and when I started getting there I got injured. I had a few horrible misstakes, but also a few stunning saves that few could believe I actually pulled off. Still, I wasnt very consistent and tended to make erratic decisions. Actually, all I really needed was some time to adjust to the new surroundings and develop a consistent form...


Oh well, another prosperous career down the drain...

Before and during high school I loved having a free role behind the strikers, but considering our high school coach played a straight system I just played central midfield. Senior year he played me as sweeper, kinda like a Beckenbauer, and we were State champs.

For my college team I am a holding midfielder.
