The Streets Won't forget... but seriously aside from the normal Fifa skill team memories, that season he carried QPR to championship promotion... I used to watch that weekly championship highlights show because it was on free TV and after that first week, I spent the whole season looking out for QPR championship game streams because it was worth watching for him alone. What a wasted talent.
@hfc not a game went by in which he didnt either routlette two people or do some insane nutmeg combined with some other embaressing action on some big lump of a physical english defender/midfielder. disgusting.
@@nofurtherwest3474very very bad decipline. He disappeared before matches without saying anything and coach can't find him, he didn't train much, eat alot and didn't listen etc. he was a big match player too and gave wonderful performances against big teams like arsenal, Chelsea etc . He is at benfica now and doing normal.
Was Deulofeu that good at Milan? He was the first LaMasia player I followed since he was 15 all the way through to his professional career. I remember him at Barca B in the Segunda division he was the top scorer, literally scoring straight from corners. It was too easy for him.
Thanks for posting this guy so that people who have never heard of him can get a glimpse of how good he was!!!!!! I thought I was one of the few who remembered him from back in the day when he carried QPR on his back; and then later had a stint at Milan. I always thought that he was one of the most skillful players I'd ever seen.
Just looked up his stats of his career. Even in his prime he almost never scored or assisted to a goal. He scored only 15 goals in 221 games and 11 years. Only once he had more than 3 assists in one season, mostly none or one. And even his dribbles weren't that impressive statistically. On average he managed 2 per game, which wouldn't brought him into the list of the top 50 last season...
@@mart_en Thanks for the expert football analysis but you're missing the biggest point my man. We're here watching a player who played for QPR 12 years ago simply because he had such a unique technique and presence. Nobody is here to select him for the premier league's all time best XI lol. He would've played for teams like Barca or Real Madrid if he was capable of regularly producing 20+ g/a with this kind of play style. But obviously that's not the case so you can assume stats aren't really relevant here.
@@tamatama1037 thanks for elaborating. I had exaggerated when I said that he "carried QPR", but, I always believed that if he was Brazilian or Argentinian he would have gotten more highlights. The guy was one of the most skillful players during his stint in England. He and Okacha had that special touch.
What I love about Taarabt's Dribbling is that he almost always does it to get to a position of advantage for him and the team. Mostly forwards or to relieve pressure. He doesn't do tricks in silly areas just to show off.
For me,this guy is the best moroccan player ever, period. I know he didn't have a big career, didn't score too many goals, wasn't really a disciplined guy, but the way he plays was just magical.

@@syamjee7880 You can't say his Football IQ is not high when the guy can come up with solutions in situations that look desperate. But yes tactically speaking he was limited. He plays football for fun clearly
I remember him coming to Benfica, I am a FC Porto supporter. I knew of his fame from my times in England and at 26 yo I thought it was going to be its second coming, in a way Hulk did for FC Porto when he arrived from... Japan. With this talent it wouldn't be hard to achieve glory here. And fans absolutely love talented players who give it all for the club. Think Di Maria and James Rodrigues, these guys are legends in Portugal to the point Di Maria is now back at Benfica for the twilight of his career and Rodrigues didn't come because FC Porto has no cash. It wasn't to be and it really is a shame to see so many talentless players inundating the best leagues in Europe of whom you will never see 1 special move or trick to remember them by, just statistics.
No, he was world class at skill and dribbling, him and Ronaldinho the greatest ever, doesn't mean he shoulda played at top teams and won everything. He had a great career
The way he had his spell on his QPR days, based on how good and short it was, makes me question if he's on PED or not. But anyhow, those days were immortalised already. Thanks for the legendary entertainments, the streets won't forget.
Ya I've never heard of this guy oh man it's like he's walking straight through guys like they're ghosts to him I seriously don't think I've ever seen anyone have that type of skill. Like if you had a cheat code and just dribbled straight up to an opponent and it glitched you right through them.
Me in my little football career..Im talented and all but i dont score too much.Unlucky for me in modern football menagers only look for results and participation..
@@davidaleksic8381 back then football managers / scouts also did that but for example taarabt was able to be clinical enough at lower / younger level and / or people in charge hoped that he would get there over time .. but he didnt yet its the most important thing in football. ronaldinho was showboating a shit ton yet he was clinical af, neymar the same. people shouldnt forget that they dont see this here. also he failed a lot of times / did unnecesary stuff which slowed down their plays, you obv dont get to see that in highlights tho. very talented with the ball but people, especially young talents, can actually learn more from other footballers like müller.
If we compared scoring vs assisting vs dribbling The most important is scoring & assisting But football fans adore dribbling joy for eyes to watch For that we appreciate Messi is the GOAT cuz he merged all aspects.. scoring assisting dribbling
Exactly. The whole video is nutmegs. They are good but the title of the video says 6* skills which are not shown at all. The 6* skill would go to dinho or Neymar
Little do people know that Taarabt could have easily left the clubs he played for and found better chances but he stayed and fought for both QPR and AC Milan and lead them towards better positions
Yeah, people easily get on stats and talking like its easy. Just because its look so. He brougt a tier 3 team into the premier league, playing wit shaun right phillip as target man. Its sad that other premier league didnt snatch him up, all eyez are on him like yannick bolasie. If only newcastle that has that trend partner him up wit ben arfa and shola ameobi up front. He glitches through other players during the era where it burn other if negmetted, its freaking not easy, thus why he fits so much for premier league that does like to shoot between goalkeepers legs. Man, those times were though, roy keano, stam, spurs original dembele. Non players thinks its easy to nutmeggin but if i may remind, cloude makelele warns ronaldinho not to nutmeg him otherwise someone leg is gonna be broken. Not any other skills. Comprende? Most of his entire career he plays wit not so good partner midfielder, he is the support like how milan used he stintly. Honestly i though spurs would need a high flying no 7 winger at that time to partner berba and pavlychenko i think his was, but then realised whom are their owners and supporters, then i understand why. He supposedly destined to be playing some time wit big 4 teams, but sure something is lacking. Yeah 6 rates, should also be only for the likes of robinho, ronaldinho, ronaldo nazario, not the first 3 years of ronaldo at united as well as he is also showboat but no real threat at more dangerous area, not messi, early neymar at santos, people forget how a pro player soul vent out their body after nutmegted on live tv, where the whole world was watching, he did it week after week like he was born from brazil at that time. No matter how you prepare, doubt any messier fans can ever did that. Against the likes of les ferdinand and vidic. You kidding me??? Against earlier prime modric and co. Yeah, easier said that done, he was black as morocco is in africa, just arab speaking man. Good work and footage man.
@@hugofernandes2930 only to whom hardcore fans that watch all league, precisely yes, teams that played in the champions league. But big 4 teams does NOT rely on a single winger or ball player, wit another single playmaker. Remember benfica had this left footed playmaker wearing the no 7, he takes all the freekicks and penalty spot, cant remember his name but he was south american. Big clubs played with say giggs on the left and cr7 on the right, along wit Berbatov up front. Unlimited supply from scholes and fletcher, delicious supply. We are talking about a winger here that stretches teams wide and in the middle, 442 sytems or even 433. Then a winger can easily flourish and hard to be marked. Thats what i called big teams. Everyone know milan mostly consist of old players that past their prime time. Taarabt is like everyone else say in this comment section, like quaresma, wannabe arda turan and benzema, is exactly a winger, but he played before arda and benzema was still suckling breast, but in a tougher physical league, you should see the league 1 and 2 played in england. The tackles are crunchier. Taarabt has played in those conditions and still suffice. Not many has done that before things gone soft. He is pure joy to watch before the era of messi and ronaldo7. In milan, they played him central, wahahaha.
Just looked up his stats of his career. Even in his prime he almost never scored or assisted to a goal. He scored only 15 goals in 221 games and 11 years. Only once he had more than 3 assists in one season, mostly none or one. And even his dribbles weren't that impressive statistically. On average he managed 2 per game, which wouldn't brought him into the list of the top 50 last season...
Not every play is lucky enough to be in a world class team , Ronaldinho was basically the same awful stats , usless dribbles and tricks yet people goat him because he was in a world class team and national team
But football is fun. That's why so many kids grow up playing it and dreaming on becoming a pro. Good for him he can make a living having fun. It's a professional job, but one we love to do since we were KIDS, a job people stop to watch. A lawyer plays his Taarabts "job" on a weekend. Even footballers play football on vacation, a lawyer wouldn't practice law in his vacation😂.
You said it like it can't be possible to have both. Plus he almost always does it to get to a position of advantage for him and the team. Mostly forwards or to relieve pressure. No big deal, no teammate would complain about that. They know it's important to have a player like that so they break lines and open spaces when it's hard. A good team has players with different characteristics completing each other. If you want all players to the basic, you'll always have the basic.
Just a french street baller with maroccan roots grew up watching the best french algerian zinedine zidane nort african players always dribble with flair
Nahhh son… he is cold and the streets won’t forget him but if he has 6 stars skills Ronaldinho, Neymar, Robihno, Eden Hasard, CR7, Okocha and many many more players deserve 7-8 Star easy. He can pull off a couple of nutmegs against Fulham and Westham but he’s never really dangerous and barely scores when you really look at it… He’s not even in the “Icon Card” conversation my brother. Nice video, keep it up.
@Caviin_Momo i dont like Neymar neither, but compare this guy with Neymar should be a sin. lol. Neymar lacks of will and motivation now days, but he had won everything at Santos and Barcelona. The last one would not win 2014-15 UCL without him.
@@Peaceoutrelaxation nah, if we talk about best player on history Neymar is hardly a top20, but if we talk about pure overall skill Neymar is arguabily a top5 of all time. Even if we talk just about dribbling skill we cant still compare both. Taarabt's sucess rate is way under Neymar's. A dribbler market value is mesured by his succeded atempts and scoring opportunities created... Dude, even at a street contest i would put my money in Neymar.
For me the most skillful players to ever kick a ball are Maradona, Romario and Ronaldinho! Reason being is I believe skill in football should be measured by a players ability to manipulate the ball. Don't get me wrong coz Taarbat is skillful but his ability relies alot on his natural athletism and mis-direction. Not the same type of ability as the players I've mentioned. Just my own opinion
@@yassineabahrouz5456 Yeah, and now he in Benfica and the team is always conceding goals because he loses the ball in the midfield. He is skillfull but not a good football player
@@tiagopereira9000 his role at benfica proves my point He’s more than just a skillful dribbler when he plays he plays as an 8 or a regista which proves that he dictates the tempo and reads the game well and he currently has the best passing percentage on the squad As for your point you’re absolutely wrong can you provide how many times he lost the ball and in which games??????
@@yassineabahrouz5456 Portimonense vs Benfica. Portimonense scored the first goal because he lost the ball. Benfica vs Liverpool. Liverpool scored the second goal because he lost the ball. Benfica vs Vizela. He was sent off at 5 minutes for a foul after losing the ball. Benfica vs Porto. Porto scored the goal in the end of the match with a counter attack because Taarabt just stopped running instead of help defending. All of this was this season 👍. And there are much more times he lost the ball, or did something wrong, obviously I cant precise all of them
@@tiagopereira9000 how many other mistakes were made by other players in those 2 legs against liverpool? It’s normal giving the way that team presses My argument is not that Taarabt is good player my argument is that what’s keeping him from being so is his work ethic and seriousness The guy I replied to says he “cared more about dribbling than making the right plays” that’s not true Taarabt has high football iq and can play different possessions All I’m saying here is that he’s a well developed player but he’s not serious!

Think Di Maria and James Rodrigues, these guys are legends in Portugal to the point Di Maria is now back at Benfica for the twilight of his career and Rodrigues didn't come because FC Porto has no cash.
It wasn't to be and it really is a shame to see so many talentless players inundating the best leagues in Europe of whom you will never see 1 special move or trick to remember them by, just statistics.
adel is a real baller
but my boy dinho should be the first to get that 6 star first
A true Moroccan lad, everything in his feet, nothing in his head !
Egyptian
@@hermonghebresslasie3198he is morrocan
Taarabt and Allan Saint-Maximin .. Two players that could have been super stars but life wasn't so kind to them.
He had all the ability to become a world class player and yet never reached the heights. Proves that talent can only get you so far.
No, he was world class at skill and dribbling, him and Ronaldinho the greatest ever, doesn't mean he shoulda played at top teams and won everything. He had a great career
When freestyler playing the real football match
King Nutmeg🔥🔥
Reminds me Quaresma, undoubtedly more talented that most of the greats, just lack focus & drive.

Thank You
@@RU_Pokerstar_88 you're welcome bro..
The way he had his spell on his QPR days, based on how good and short it was, makes me question if he's on PED or not. But anyhow, those days were immortalised already. Thanks for the legendary entertainments, the streets won't forget.
Ya I've never heard of this guy oh man it's like he's walking straight through guys like they're ghosts to him I seriously don't think I've ever seen anyone have that type of skill.
Like if you had a cheat code and just dribbled straight up to an opponent and it glitched you right through them.
He used to destroy Man city man United Liverpool and all of that 😊 all morocan players are from another level
The thing is individually he was great with those technic, but the impact he brought for team not so great...
Me in my little football career..Im talented and all but i dont score too much.Unlucky for me in modern football menagers only look for results and participation..
@@davidaleksic8381 that’s not unlucky, you go play street football,real football required scores to win,not showboating
Ermm it's QPR 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😅👍👏SOME PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO POST LOL
He is the reason QPR got promoted. He was sublime.
@@davidaleksic8381 back then football managers / scouts also did that but for example taarabt was able to be clinical enough at lower / younger level and / or people in charge hoped that he would get there over time .. but he didnt yet its the most important thing in football. ronaldinho was showboating a shit ton yet he was clinical af, neymar the same.
people shouldnt forget that they dont see this here. also he failed a lot of times / did unnecesary stuff which slowed down their plays, you obv dont get to see that in highlights tho. very talented with the ball but people, especially young talents, can actually learn more from other footballers like müller.
Expect him in Qatar, Modric about to get nutmegged
For real, which team?
نعم عادل تاعرابت الموهبة والإبداع ❤
He had mad skills but at a time where many had the same. He was super skilled..
Never heard his name, but mann those skills are 🔥🔥🔥
Adel Taarabt
You don't know anything about football if you haven't heard the name of Adel Taraabt
U r indian i think football it's not popular in country upling kreket
You don’t know him but streets know him
Who always to buy this man at Fifa09-Fifa12, yes is it me 🙋🏼♂️
one of greatest dribbler 👍👍👍
If we compared scoring vs assisting vs dribbling
The most important is scoring & assisting
But football fans adore dribbling joy for eyes to watch
For that we appreciate Messi is the GOAT cuz he merged all aspects.. scoring assisting dribbling
Messi doesn’t dribble just drives The bal and does body Skills
Terrible work rate, poor finishing, and a miserable final pass - BUT that dribbling alone brought joy to the world and filled all of the seats
Don’t know about skills but those nutmegs💥💥
Exactly. The whole video is nutmegs. They are good but the title of the video says 6* skills which are not shown at all. The 6* skill would go to dinho or Neymar
Dude was cold AF..n the track hittin too 😂
Impossible to forget
Taarabat.
Michu.
Ben Arfa.
Payet. The streets will never forget
With all my respect but you can't put Michu alongside with these ballers .
@@mouradhdda that one season. You just had to watch it... Michu is forgotten but the streets surely remember that ONE season
Panna king ✌️
3:03 aah that's just totally nasty.🔥 I love it!!!
One of the king of Nutmeg in the world 🔥💯
King of nutmegs 🔥
Can't lie almost forgot about him. Such a wasted talent 😩! The combo breakers this guy would generate in a game through nutmegs was illegal 🤣👌🏿
If I see a taraabt highlight reel clip show up on my feed, I cannot scroll by without watching 👌
The Streets wont forget this guy.
Little do people know that Taarabt could have easily left the clubs he played for and found better chances but he stayed and fought for both QPR and AC Milan and lead them towards better positions
Only if he had played for some Bigger Club... ..
Yeah, people easily get on stats and talking like its easy. Just because its look so. He brougt a tier 3 team into the premier league, playing wit shaun right phillip as target man. Its sad that other premier league didnt snatch him up, all eyez are on him like yannick bolasie. If only newcastle that has that trend partner him up wit ben arfa and shola ameobi up front. He glitches through other players during the era where it burn other if negmetted, its freaking not easy, thus why he fits so much for premier league that does like to shoot between goalkeepers legs. Man, those times were though, roy keano, stam, spurs original dembele. Non players thinks its easy to nutmeggin but if i may remind, cloude makelele warns ronaldinho not to nutmeg him otherwise someone leg is gonna be broken. Not any other skills. Comprende?
Most of his entire career he plays wit not so good partner midfielder, he is the support like how milan used he stintly. Honestly i though spurs would need a high flying no 7 winger at that time to partner berba and pavlychenko i think his was, but then realised whom are their owners and supporters, then i understand why. He supposedly destined to be playing some time wit big 4 teams, but sure something is lacking. Yeah 6 rates, should also be only for the likes of robinho, ronaldinho, ronaldo nazario, not the first 3 years of ronaldo at united as well as he is also showboat but no real threat at more dangerous area, not messi, early neymar at santos, people forget how a pro player soul vent out their body after nutmegted on live tv, where the whole world was watching, he did it week after week like he was born from brazil at that time. No matter how you prepare, doubt any messier fans can ever did that. Against the likes of les ferdinand and vidic. You kidding me??? Against earlier prime modric and co. Yeah, easier said that done, he was black as morocco is in africa, just arab speaking man. Good work and footage man.
Milan and benfica are big clubs
@@hugofernandes2930 only to whom hardcore fans that watch all league, precisely yes, teams that played in the champions league. But big 4 teams does NOT rely on a single winger or ball player, wit another single playmaker. Remember benfica had this left footed playmaker wearing the no 7, he takes all the freekicks and penalty spot, cant remember his name but he was south american. Big clubs played with say giggs on the left and cr7 on the right, along wit Berbatov up front. Unlimited supply from scholes and fletcher, delicious supply.
We are talking about a winger here that stretches teams wide and in the middle, 442 sytems or even 433. Then a winger can easily flourish and hard to be marked. Thats what i called big teams. Everyone know milan mostly consist of old players that past their prime time. Taarabt is like everyone else say in this comment section, like quaresma, wannabe arda turan and benzema, is exactly a winger, but he played before arda and benzema was still suckling breast, but in a tougher physical league, you should see the league 1 and 2 played in england. The tackles are crunchier. Taarabt has played in those conditions and still suffice. Not many has done that before things gone soft. He is pure joy to watch before the era of messi and ronaldo7. In milan, they played him central, wahahaha.
I honestly lost count on how much players he has nutmegged🤧
Street wont never forget
Woww..he used the training skills into a real match..salute 🤯🔥
Salute
There will always be a way between two legs 🦵 😂😂😂
I'm dead 😂😂😂😂😂 and my ribs hurt.
My favorite player of all time
🇩🇿❤️❤️🇲🇦
Best player that ever graced the pitch and still doing it!
players like this dont exist anymore
Sadly. They used to be entertaining no matter if u won or lost.
Plays like Ronaldo 9
HE REMINDS ME OV MYSELF I WISH I KEPT AT FOOTY I WOULD B LITERALLY SCORING MADDD
Monster in his prime, criminally underrated his early career
Just looked up his stats of his career.
Even in his prime he almost never scored or assisted to a goal.
He scored only 15 goals in 221 games and 11 years.
Only once he had more than 3 assists in one season, mostly none or one.
And even his dribbles weren't that impressive statistically.
On average he managed 2 per game, which wouldn't brought him into the list of the top 50 last season...
He was awful, he played in 2nd division which was his level
Very unnecessary dribbling could’ve just passed the ball most of the time i think he just wanted to have fun not to play football
Not every play is lucky enough to be in a world class team , Ronaldinho was basically the same awful stats , usless dribbles and tricks yet people goat him because he was in a world class team and national team
But football is fun. That's why so many kids grow up playing it and dreaming on becoming a pro. Good for him he can make a living having fun. It's a professional job, but one we love to do since we were KIDS, a job people stop to watch. A lawyer plays his Taarabts "job" on a weekend. Even footballers play football on vacation, a lawyer wouldn't practice law in his vacation😂.
You said it like it can't be possible to have both. Plus he almost always does it to get to a position of advantage for him and the team. Mostly forwards or to relieve pressure. No big deal, no teammate would complain about that. They know it's important to have a player like that so they break lines and open spaces when it's hard. A good team has players with different characteristics completing each other. If you want all players to the basic, you'll always have the basic.
Yes......he is better than neymar
No way
Just a french street baller with maroccan roots grew up watching the best french algerian zinedine zidane nort african players always dribble with flair
Good joke😂 why are u jealous
نتا باين كرغولي 😂😂😂😂😂
Meilleur dribbleur dans l’histoire du football
Nahhh son… he is cold and the streets won’t forget him but if he has 6 stars skills Ronaldinho, Neymar, Robihno, Eden Hasard, CR7, Okocha and many many more players deserve 7-8 Star easy.
He can pull off a couple of nutmegs against Fulham and Westham but he’s never really dangerous and barely scores when you really look at it…
He’s not even in the “Icon Card” conversation my brother.
Nice video, keep it up.
Neymar worst
Eden hazard not really technical
One of the most skillful players in his time, n it's not a mistake to say his skills are on par as Neymar.
His attitude is the downside of his career.
yeah not sure you can compare him to Neymar mate
He is indonesian what you can expect from him
@Caviin_Momo i dont like Neymar neither, but compare this guy with Neymar should be a sin. lol.
Neymar lacks of will and motivation now days, but he had won everything at Santos and Barcelona. The last one would not win 2014-15 UCL without him.
@@GuzQuebec I think we talking about skills not who won more trophies. I believe this guy is smoother than Neymar. Just my opinion.
@@Peaceoutrelaxation nah, if we talk about best player on history Neymar is hardly a top20, but if we talk about pure overall skill Neymar is arguabily a top5 of all time. Even if we talk just about dribbling skill we cant still compare both. Taarabt's sucess rate is way under Neymar's. A dribbler market value is mesured by his succeded atempts and scoring opportunities created...
Dude, even at a street contest i would put my money in Neymar.
As Benfica fan I can't denied the skill but is lack of work ethic didn't permit him to become one best player in generation
Look how smooth his transitions are !!
the only three 6 star skillers should be Dinho, Taarabt, and ben arfa
He’s not Neymar mate
Make that number of nutmegs, is the best way to say I'm a Moroccan without saying I'm a Moroccan 😂😂
مول البيض شخصيا 😅😅
Very talented player
For me the most skillful players to ever kick a ball are Maradona, Romario and Ronaldinho! Reason being is I believe skill in football should be measured by a players ability to manipulate the ball. Don't get me wrong coz Taarbat is skillful but his ability relies alot on his natural athletism and mis-direction. Not the same type of ability as the players I've mentioned. Just my own opinion
Taarabt cared more about dribbling for his own pleasure than playing for the benefit of a team.. That's why he was never successful in his career.
Did u even watch a single game for him???
The guy was clinical and every skill he performed was for a purpose!
@@yassineabahrouz5456 Yeah, and now he in Benfica and the team is always conceding goals because he loses the ball in the midfield. He is skillfull but not a good football player
@@tiagopereira9000 his role at benfica proves my point
He’s more than just a skillful dribbler when he plays he plays as an 8 or a regista which proves that he dictates the tempo and reads the game well and he currently has the best passing percentage on the squad
As for your point you’re absolutely wrong can you provide how many times he lost the ball and in which games??????
@@yassineabahrouz5456 Portimonense vs Benfica. Portimonense scored the first goal because he lost the ball. Benfica vs Liverpool. Liverpool scored the second goal because he lost the ball. Benfica vs Vizela. He was sent off at 5 minutes for a foul after losing the ball. Benfica vs Porto. Porto scored the goal in the end of the match with a counter attack because Taarabt just stopped running instead of help defending. All of this was this season 👍. And there are much more times he lost the ball, or did something wrong, obviously I cant precise all of them
@@tiagopereira9000 how many other mistakes were made by other players in those 2 legs against liverpool? It’s normal giving the way that team presses
My argument is not that Taarabt is good player my argument is that what’s keeping him from being so is his work ethic and seriousness
The guy I replied to says he “cared more about dribbling than making the right plays” that’s not true Taarabt has high football iq and can play different possessions
All I’m saying here is that he’s a well developed player but he’s not serious!
We will never forget what Adel presented. You know, we had a lot of fun. He is an artist’s skillful style, but vanity is the enemy of talent.
Street never forget this man
Wowwww. Jogador Morocco 🇲🇦❤️
Number of nutmeg 🤯
Imagine last world cup Taarabt on the team, gonna be on fire!!!
It was a genuine privilege to watch Taarabt in the flesh at QPR.
Ele e o Ben Arfa, são talentosíssimos....... Ótimos pontas, para o São Paulo 😅😅
1:23 he even sent the ref Lmao
Taarabt was a joy to watch man…🫡
Adel Taraabt changed my life 😮💨😩🔥
I agree, he should. He was one of the best dribblers in the British league ever
These are the type of players we OG will never forget😭❤️🔥 Nasri, Ben arfa,Taarabt,Eden hazard. 5 star skills player.
Definition of a full control!
Je m'abonne ! La chanson me plaît bien 🇧🇫
Everyone old enough that enjoyed football at that time knew his name
