"If I have to make a tackle, then I have already made a mistake". Paolo Maldini. The greatest defender ever
He did it like 100 times in this video. Quote makes no sense
Not tackle , he meant A FOUL.
@@sadinhamadouchi8280 for every single tackle he made 100s of interceptions...
@@sadinhamadouchi8280 the quote was slide tackle, meaning that most the time u make a slide tackle u weren't tight enough on ur man, or he beat u the first time
@@sadinhamadouchi8280 Maldini's biggest strength was his awareness of the game. He would lock the defence down and not allow anyone to come close by cutting each passing lane along with other greats like Nesta. Obviously, this won't work all the time so everytime it didn't work, he had the skill necessary to make the perfect tackle and recover the ball. He considers his hold on the game his greatest ability and his elite tackling skills are only a failsafe.
When a world class striker such as Ronaldo Lima and Zlatan Ibrahimovic said Maldini is the toughest defenders they ever faced, it really say it all
He played lb most of his career so he wouldn't face off against them
@@zac5572 He started shifting from LB into CB under Zaccheroni era (98) where Zac always use 3-4-3 tactics. It's a different story on national team where there's Cannavaro and Nesta as a CB. But in serie A, his ability to mark strikers was very effective
@@zac5572 He was more complete he always make up to CB on paper he start as LB but he was a CB but on Italian side he was a LB proper LB
snuck in zlatan
@@sr7football168 Zlatan was world class
His career was also very long, sustaining a high performance (he retired at 40). He faced Maradona and CR7.
he faced the best players in general we need a defenders like maldini in this era

@@jensmatthewdawson6997 that Is a Great Choise, Bro. In fact, as a true CD, Beckenbauer was probably slightly Better than Maldini but Maldini Is more complete. And he won in different eras of football
Baresi still the best
I love maldini but I would have to say baresi is a bit better.
He had almost no mistimed tackles. So precise and even quick. The absolute king of slide tackling.
He had a lot of practice. Remember that he was playing in Italy, and during the 90's (and arugably to this day) Italy is a haven for divers. He probably trained night and day to perfect his 'no touch tackle', just in case.
Wan bissaka better

NESTA had the best sliding tackle
Paolo Maldini, a legend as a defender and a genius of fair play. 902 appearances, 92 yellow cards and only 3 red cards in his 25 years at A.C Milan. In his 16 years of international career Maldini had 126 caps and only 9 yellow cards.

@@Peanut279 That'd be someone like Beckenbauer, Matthaus, Koeman or Lahm.
@@bcbitchkkv rijkaard as well I think so
@@bcbitchkkv Not for Koeman he was more of a shit Maldini was a LB LCB RCB and LWB so probably he also fit in
How he never won the Ballon D’or I’ll never know. Just because attackers score goals and are creative they always seem to win it. But Maldini was unquestionably the best player in his position and the best defender in the world for years. He took defending to a whole new level. His timing, intelligence, positioning, game reading was outstanding. He was a better defender than attackers were at attacking. Simply the best
if he was to ever win Ballon d'Or it would have had to be in his peak years (which is 2000 to 2007), but during those years both Kaka and Shevchenko had won it for Milan, so my assumption is that the voters didn't want to reward it to another Milan player (although, let's not forget that Pirlo, too would have deserved the trophy in those years) so as not to be accused of bias. But, in reality, we all know that the almighty AC Milan have had at least 4 players that could have won the trophy at ANY time during those years were this trophy to be rewarded fair and square. But after this injustice, the moronic voters went ahead and gave the trophy only to Messi and Penaldo for over a decade, even though there were times when Messi didn't deserve it. In the 2011 season, for example, Messi had been injured most of the season and he only played 10-12 games (I don't remember the exact number), and I think he still won the Ballon d'Or at the expense of Riibbery, Robben, Lahm, Neuer or Alaba who have won the UCL that season. This just shows you how corrupt this trophy had become in the last 15 years or so.... Or in 2013 (I believe) when Real Madrid had only won Copa del Rey and yet, Penaldo had won Ballon d'Or instead of - once again - Ribbery or Robben, or even Drogba / Terry / Lampard who were killing that season. So yeah... tell me more about how fair this trophy is when legends like Pirlo or Maldini carry the teams on their backs for a decade while Messi / Penaldo don't even play and they still win it....
he came pretty close to winning ballon d or/ world player of the year in 1994,1995 and 2003
His ball anticipation was like a Jedi, it was as if he could predict the future
The prototype when it came to “High IQ” players.
In that case, Baresi was the force itself? Seriously, I've never found someone who could anticipate and intercept so damn fast!
against maldini one thing can pass through : the ball or the player: together, its impossible
except for ronaldo

Whats really amazing is that none of these "modern ball playing" defenders of today even come close to the technique, ability and class of this GOAT.
You forgot Maguire
Complete, genius, quick. Incredible covering, positioning and leadership. Strong in the air. Incredible in one on one . Great with the ball at his feet. Aggressive. Incredible legacy. 25 years at the top . Faced the greatest ever , maradona, platini, romario, ronaldo, zidan, Cristiano, ronaldinho, baggio, totti, ...etc . The greatest of all time . He is the number one in my top five defenders ever with baresi, scirea, beckenbauer, nesta
Handsome too. And he did all that thing u said with handsome style.
Me too. Baresi, Nesta, Maldini, Ramos.

Maldini has it all. Skill, speed, composure, impeccable positional sense, toughness and above all a great pro and team player. One of the top 5 defenders of all time.
not 1 of the top 5, THE BEST of all time. No other defender could even come close, and please - for the love of God - don't bring the nuisances Hierro or Puyol into discussion.

But you get the point :)
@@blabla-rg7ky Difficult to compare different era's but Maldini is the best defender I have ever seen
@@barryosullivan1486 exactly!
MALDINI...the absolute BEST and the unparalleled Genius. GOAT.
Very few True Legends of football. Maldini is one.
What people also forget is how important some of these games were, in which he produced so many great defensive performances...finals and semi-finals of major tournaments like the World Cup, the Champions League, and the Euros, as well as big domestic games as well against top opponents (both clubs and players) and in key games during a given season. He won it all with Milan (he once held the record for most Serie A title victories when his career spanned the era in which it was the greatest league we've ever seen, with seven world class teams and some of the greatest players, defenders, and goalkeepers ever), set a record for least goals conceded and most clean sheets and consecutive minutes without a goal in Serie A and the World Cup (the former has since been broken), and came up against all the greats, and also holds the record for most Champions League/European Cup victories and final appearances, keeping several clean sheets and had a man of the match performance in one of them and a goal in one defeat. Only bad luck prevented him from winning a title with Italy, which he so deserved, but he came close on many occasions, as demonstrated by the fact that he was included in the World Cup all-time team and was often included in the team of the tournament. And while he was arguably the greatest tackler I've ever seen along with Nesta (and the greatest defender I've seen along with Baresi and Nesta), he usually didn't tackle unless he needed to, which is even more impressive. Maldini really had it all...an impeccable leader, a classy player, who was precocious, consistent, and who had incredible longevity, and who could play in any defensive position (as he demonstrated during the 1994 World Cup) or even in midfield if necessary. He really had everything you wanted in a defender: two-footedness, versatility, timing, tackling, marking, anticipation, recovering, reading of the game, positioning, organisational skills, tactical intelligence, proficiency in one-one-one situations, physical power/strength, heading/elevtaion/athleticism/aerial prowess, pace, energy, awareness, concentration, composure, mentality, breavery, decisiveness, technique, elegance, passing, crossing, creativity, and attacking drive, both when playing on the flank or up the middle as a libero...the one thing which one might consider a possible "weakness," which maybe impeded him from being virtually "perfect" (not that I would call them that personally though), is that he didn't have the offensive qualities or goalscoring or shooting abilities, both in open play and from dead ball situations, of certain defenders such as Koeman, Hierro, Roberto Carlos, Vierchowod, Materazzi, or Ramos, but having said that he always chipped in with a few goals, and also contributed with assists as well, and I still believe that as a defender, one should be able to defend first and foremost...and aside from goals, he had it all, and I think that's even more impressive looking back on him today when technique and ball playing ability are valued more in defenders.
Wow
@@Kobs.A lol😂
Perfect analysis
I totally agree, perfect analysis
Wow! I was glued to the end!, I really need to know how to write like this!
Dude is insane , he manages to be incredibly aggressive but there’s an intelligence to everything he does. Agressive but never resorting to violence in any of his defending , fucking flawless player
the way he slides right back up after a slide tackle as well, what a defender he was, my footballing idol
Maldini was pure class for 25 years amazing to think that he started as a right winger in Milan’s academy🤔
To be honest I’d say he could play almost anywhere. He’s definitely make a great holding midfielder....
So believeable He can play as a midfielder,striker ,winger Literally everywhere
He played eight champions league finals, EIGHT!!

Defence is a Art, Maldini is a universal Boss in defence, he fulfilled that position, since 1990 (Season) is very tough. He is a great Legend
Since the 1984-85 season. He was already the best defender in the world in 1990.

Always played the ball. Best slide tackler there was.
Isn’t nesta the best slide tackle ever. Maldini is just the greatest the most complete but not the best slide tackler ever although he’s also good at it though.
then youd have to question them positionally
@@huskyz1417 I would say that they both are; Nesta and Maldini were amazing, maybe Nesta was slightly more elegant, but so was Polo! No-one except maybe Lahm comes close to the way they could win the ball and keep hold of it and get up and carry on running!
“If I had to slide tackle, that means I did something wrong before” -Maldini
@@danteesposito2105 True, despite what this video shows, he didn't tackle unless he really had to, but he was still the best at it along with Nesta!
Notice how most of his tackles are clean, harmless and precise. A genius in the art of defending!
His tackles are so clean and precise. And boy, he was pretty fast in his prime! (A younger AC Milan fan who only witness Maldini in his late 30s here, he was still damn good back when i see him too, though)
The best compilation about a defender i have ever seen. So proud to be Italian
Damn,. The tackle,.. the more i see, the more i love it,..
No me canso de verlo, es simplemente el mejor, el más completo, el más grande defensa. Viva Italia!!
Man, he really was a living example of "not on my watch" wasn't he! Damn!
The scary thing is as a defender he has some dribbling skill.so when he tackle the striker its not easy to take the ball for him.Because when he has the ball on his leg he is look like a midfielder.
people thought come here and see many legendary slides and tackles, but once maldini said "if i have to tackle that means that i've already done a mistake", if you're positioning is good the opponent players doesnt have even the space to challenge you, that's why players like wan bissaka do many good tackles but they always leaves too space for the opponents, to understand the ability of maldini you have to watch the entire match not highlights on yt
니 말이 맞다ㅋㅋ나도 풀영상으로 보고싶다
Yep, half of defending is just positioning until they make a mistake, takling is the less important half of it
I still think Bissaka is quite good He’s really good at one on ones But you’re right still 👍
Yet no matter how great Maldini was, he can only help one team to win. Maguire can help EITHER teams to win!
@@aidanjanemcintosh6919 actually he can help 19 teams to win

My favourite defender of all times.
Paolo, the Italian boss, what a power , what a courage.
And now we have Maguire as the most expensive defender of all time 🤷🏻♂️
But Maguire has something to proud of that Maldini don't..."no look defense"
My 5yo son started watching Maldini videos and suddenly leaps of progress in his defending. Even his coach was like what happened and then I just said he started watching Maldini. You could see the admiration for that name in the coach's eyes
The perfect tackle. Wow.
He made an art from sliding
He was not a player, but a warrior 🪖 on pitch .. Salute to incredible legend 🙌
He was not a defender! He was Defense itself!!! A God of the game. Surly the greatest defender of all time must be an Italian, and that is Paolo Maldini of course... the master of tackles. FORZA MILAN!!!
the way his timing is always perfect, the class of his password and the fact of never being scared no matter who to play against makes him the best defender of all time
