Style of Play II
Versatility and Experience.
Versatility was because of well… versatility.
He could shoot with both legs, could dribble with both legs, could dribble speedily or technically, and could dribble simply or flamboyantly.
It meant he was never out of his element anywhere in the final third and that was a good starting point.
The second word was 'Experience'.
It meant a culmination of everything he had ever done and gone through and it was probably what had helped him so far.
They say you can't teach an old dog new tricks, but he was an old dog who had seen all the tricks before and had experienced an age rejuvenation.
Thanks to his experience, he could easily read people's movement, motion, and their intentions and that had always helped him to be at the right place most of the time, but what if he stopped using that attribute passively and began to use it actively both when he was on the ball and off the ball.
