Naismith the young Rangers (ex Kilmarnock) striker was in the same school as me and played for the same youth team. He was the best player in his year by a fair bit and would score goals for fun.
But there were other players who looked better at the time but i think he worked hard and didn't get distracted. Obviously a tallented footballer but alot of it has to do with how much you want it and how hard you work.
Now everyone would say "if i could go back" but at the time alot of the most tallented kids in britain will turn to chasing skirt, gettin pissed on the weekend when if they were serious about football it would be all they do.
I'm sure that most if not all pros would tear us to shreds. What i wonder is how good a player like Ronaldo or Messi would be in a 5 a side game
I watched a clip of Zidane playing 5s with a bunch of algerians. Great stuff, just the way they move with the ball glued is incredible.
