this is better and much rare.


jeje

ah, and this is the best goal of the last season.

that guy used to called as Maradona of Yugoslavia. He was best foreign player ever played in Japan, still a legend, and he showed what he still can do - better than player of his team I guess. Pure legend.

That second goal was insane

the nayim one is probably the best for me. by palermo which is better then alonsos or beckhams v wimbledon he won the ball and was under pressure.

a lot of them were just jammy punts up the field though.

Ha ha that Stojkovic goal is class!

think about it, with formal business shoes and suit, direct volley kick with running in,
and goal was 40m away. All was in unexpected & impulsive reaction.

Which all leads to the conclusion that it was pretty jammy

Stoijkovic was no Savicevic.

Needless to say, Pixy( Stojkovic) is better than Savicevic, as Savicevic himself admitted, and gave up No10 for him. Biggest star of Redstar and Yugoslavia.

It was tragedy that he and Yugoslavia didn't enjoy success he deserves in Europe because of civil war and injury, but at least that sad incident brought him to Japan, we were lucky to have seen him in our soil for 7 seasons. Still a bestest player ever played in Japan. Pixy is pure legend and magician.

Zico is also respected here but he came to Japan after his came out from first retirement at age of 40 so not much to be seen. Pixy is the first and probably last world class player ever to play in Japan at his peak, as these days footballers wages are just ridiculous in EU, so we can not follow. Highest paid player got only 1million euro a year here. We are quite down to earth.
