Soccer AM: Amazing bit of skill

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unofficial Newcastle United Football Club BBS : One Thread

Did anyone watch Soccer AM on Saturday morning when they played that amazing bit of skill from that Celtic youngster? They played it up all morning as the most amazing bit of skill etc and I was not disappointed.

I think the lad is only about 16 but he flicked the ball over two defenders who were made to look very very stupid and it showed that genuine skill still has a place to play in the game.

I often think that some of the stuff Joe Cole does is just for show but this lad really used it to beat these defenders.

The best ball player I saw in Scotland was a 17 year old Paddy Coonely playing for the Scotland U-21s about ten years ago, absolutely superb control, as good as Beardsley. Clearly going to go to the top, well he's Scottish 2nd division these days. Usual Scottish problem
