Throughout the years of success to come, remember that you made this comment. It might remind you to keep your mouth shut when you don't have anything worth saying.
How I miss those times. Yes we were facing problems and it was too difficult to survive, but, wathcing N7 on the field...it was something indescribable!
georgi kinkladze-fucking magic he's retired now god bless him im a die hard liverpool fan and i remember seeing him for city and thinking why dont we buy him? lol thats another thing he was very loyal
He attended Boca Juniors and trained with Maradonna, although he was only a young lad at the time. Apparently he was an excellent dnacer when he was a young lad in Georgia and that is why is balance is so phenomenal, his hips just switch at amzingly quick angles. Pure genius to watch and i maintain that he is the best player i have have seen live for pure adrenaline rush and raw skill and talent.
Unfortunately, Kinkladze had TOO MUCH TALENT, and that maybe a curse especially with some coaches. It's tragic that he finished on a low note, but there are so many others like him - the late Mihail Meskhi Jr., and the entire generation of Dynamo Tbilisi of the mid to late eighties. Aptziauri, Baratashvili, Zhvania, Tzaava, etc. Maybe, like most older people I have too many memories. I even remember the striped goalposts at the old Dynamo stadium. Oh, mine!
"He first gained a prodigious reputation as a skilful attacking player with FC Dinamo Tbilisi, before Manchester City FC took him to England in 1995. Kinkladze had previously been singled out for praise by Diego Maradona, during a brief stint at CA Boca Juniors, and Real Madrid CF had also considered signing the 21-year-old and his 'dancing feet', honed as a youngster when his mother had sent him to learn the traditional Georgian ballet, [folk dance!!] "mtiulur". "
Kinkladze was the player, on which Diego Maradona pointed his finger and said that he was the next Maradona.. But Kinkladze didn't stay in Bocca Juniors, he came back to Man City
kinkladze is great player, today us georgian have new kinkladze it is LEVAN KENIA, now he is 17 year old and plays shalkes u19. here is few video about him you can look.
I am Georgian. You can imagine how much I love Kinkladze. But I have to admit, Elano is much more efficient player. Kinkladze was an artist not a sportsman :). His skills are simply astounding by their simplicity. He should have danced, but winning games was not his profile. So Manchester City Fans, keep Elano and Petrov. They will kick the hell out of many teams.
ha ha... any team featuring Gary The Crab Flitcroft, Kit Symons and Richard Edghill would have struggled. How Edghill ever became a pro footballer I will never know! That said, Quinn, Rosler, Curle were fairly rated... with all respect, Alan Ball's record speaks for itself.
Couldn't believe the MEN article today. How anyone could rate him behind Berkovic and Benarbia I've got no idea. Kinky was streets ahead of Elano - would have loved to see them in the same team (and SWP as well)
Difficult to compares different eras, I think. Elano & Kinky aren't the exact same kind of player. Kinky was forced to be an individual as he had no-one to pass to. Elano can play the killer pass, and he's a much better shooter. Would be interesting to see if Kinky could fit into today's team.
