Biggest creators of chaos in football

[Chipper]

Adama Traore. He causes chaos yet he only ever produces a goal/assist on average every 7th appearance.

Yes, chaos for defenders becuse of pace and dribbling, chaos for his teammates because they didn't know if, where or when the ball would be delivered.

Could throw in lots of wide players into that kind of category over the years who never fully nailed down their final ball and decision making.

Zbigniew Boniek, Juventus.

Antoine Griezmann when with France NT.

 

[Gringo]

David Luiz surely

 

[redNATION]

Has to be Casemiro since he joined us (other than his good spell last season), every time he gets the ball it creates chaos … for us.

I googled to see if they crossed over much at Newcastle. Not sure how true this is, but it just doesn't seem right at all.

Rene Higuita has to be in any top 5 here.

Will he make a routine save with his hands or completely unnecessary acrobatic one with his feet? Will he blast the ball into the stands or take on 2 opponents with some sexy moves? Will he cover his front post or make sure his silky curls are looking good for the camera?

Dennis Wise

Balotelli

Kin hell. Always remembered them as calamitous.

Rory Delap with his long throws that for most of a season nobody could figure out how to defend.

it was a funny time

you could even hear the crowd getting nervous when their team concedes a throw in, in their own half

No, just pointing out that people make up stats on twitter all the time. Boumsong only played about 40 games for Newcastle.

Ah fair enough, I only know it's not completely true because I saw a vid with someone talking about it recently

Suarez. His dribbling style was so bizarre at times and it looked really clumsy. The ball would just bounce for him perfectly.

Beat me to it. There was a certain skill in managing to keep the ball, despite it looking like you were just about to lose it.

Always feared Cahill for some reason when we played you, whenever you got a corner or throw in, unbelievable leap on him for a short(ish) fella!

Suarez. Like having a working cocker spaniel in your team.

Haha, knew it couldn't be true.

Conceding 196 goals in 29 games with those two would have been more likely.

 

[Luke1995]

Gotta be Ronaldo Lima during his Barcelona career if we're going by footballing chaos. Defensive tactics did not matter, you could man-mark him or get three players on him and same result usually...

You could name others who had a bit of a similar style, like Bale for example, but hard to look beyond Ronaldo.

 

[90 + 5min]

Vinney Jones, Dennis Wise, Lee Bowyer… and so on. All about starting chaos. There are not to many of those kind of players that plays football now.

If you can't beat 'em, eat 'em!

Mike Tyson approves this message.

Harry Maguire, last season.
