Matthaus (ist seine Name richtig?), what a phenomenon! Maybe the longest career on top? I see what you mean about will power, he was like the heart of the Manschaft, surely more than a player in the team, that's right. Maybe Zidane plays about the same role, even if he's not the same guy at all (he's a bit dull as person IMO, but it's more about his technique and skills as far as leading the tactical schemes).Originally posted by DavidLeeNatra
well...it was the same with lothar since 1990 and he wasn't that much of a god either...and no messiah at all...but he had a very strong will of winning and maybe that's the secret...winners are willing to do what losers don't...sometimes it's as simple as that...
It's only the soppiness of the French media that gets on my nerves... Last year they relayed Zidane's tale in which he explained that he had a "supernatural experience", communicating with some late member of his family (maybe his brother, I'm not sure), which made him decide to join the national team again. Well, I say, why not?
But then, the media started dealing with that in a most serious way, almost like the seer had a vision and so on... :confused:
Then Zidane revealed that his words had been misinterpreted (but then, he is so unclear himself), that all the soppy hype around an anecdote had been based on gross distortion.
When the press reaches such a level of subservience, going as far as monopolizing paper, radio and TV news headlines for such neglectible matters, then it's a very short way to tyranny, isn't it
