  • Paolo Maldini had one of the most dominant careers from a defender and he was able to do that without relying on one of the key components of defending tackling.

    Maldini was not the greatest CB , he was the greatest defender , he played 400+ matches as a LB & 350+ matches as a CB

      Come to think about it I cant think of any other defender that has the numbers to compete with Maldini's blistering career!

    The title is somewhat misleading. For most of his career, when he played left back, one of the things Maldini was known for was his perfectly timed sliding tackle. So, no, he did not refuse to tackle, quite the opposite: tackling was one of his main strengths. The "legend" about Maldini not making tackles stems from an interview from Sir Alex Ferguson, who said that Maldini could go an entire game without having to make a single tackle, meaning he had by then (it was 2007) achieved such an amazing tactical awareness that he commanded the defense simply by positioning himself in the right place.

      Thanks, Dax. I'll use your comment on every "I don't tackle. - Maldini" comment I see.

    What is often forgot is the year they only conceded 15 goals, Milan barely scored a goal per game - and then won the Champions League having conceded only twice in 12 games. A likely unbeatable effort.

      IKR, some people don't use actual "meaning" as they cannot relate to it. If you can tell them that when you jump, you're performing a triple backflip, because they don't assign the meaning of what a triple backflip is, they don't differentiate what it is vs a jump. In their mind both a jump and a triple backflip will be the same thing. Why, because psychology is great.

      He was performing one sliding tackle every 2 games. His season average is 19 tackles.

    i dont think you understand what tackle means. he was among the best slide tackling defenders. he was reallllly good. i stopped watching your video after the 3rd minute, you already had so many clips of good tackles from the legend Paolo

    • @AurelAvramescu
      @AurelAvramescu Před 11 dny +1

      He was using sliding tackles but way less than other defenders. Also if you look at his game you will observe that his sliding tackles don’t miss the ball.

    Refused to tackle?!? He was one of the most aggressive tacklers ever. Baresi on the other hand didnt tackle much

  • @gold6813
    @gold6813 Před 7 dny +4

    Need a better title. There is a picture of him and Cannarvaro both sliding tackle and pincering R9 at the same time. R9 still had the ball though. Not sure if he left with his knees in tack though.

    • @techbro3034

      It needed two world class defenders to beat R9 and he still stood up. Man was a monster

    he also played against Messi and Ronaldo, should have been mentioned.
    But, he was a tackling god - according to his standards, he made a lot of mistakes. Still, People today did not see Baresi

    mad had the best-timed tackle in all of football and no player made him resort to that more than Ronaldo O Fenomeno but even then it wasn't enough to stop him.
    But that's what Ronaldo did to everyone so I guess that can be excused.
