How good was Anderson actually? #GOAT
New video about one of the most talked about players we've seen over the 2000's in football. In this episode we take on Anderson who played for Man United, Grémio, Internacional and Fiorentina for most of his career.
00:00 Intro
00:50 Becoming a prodigy and losing his father
3:16 The most insane match of all time
4:43 Taking over Europe
6:18 Becoming a Golden Boy
8:54 The downfall starts....
12:50 Humiliation
14:26 Bank Robbery Allegations
His first season at Utd was superb, his vision, passing, positioning was elite the expectation was high from then on but he never lived up to it.
That assist to Ronaldo to his puskas goal
I wish we had him now lol he had a better career then most
Excellent video, it summarised his career pretty well. As a Grêmio fan i only add that he was never hated at Grêmio. When he went to Internacional it was just odd, his lack of fitness was well known in Brazil and, with his high salary, no one was expected to sign him. Also, to be fair, his substitution in the first half of that Libertadores game can also be applied to the high altitude of La Paz, Bolivia (around 3600m). Lastly, i think you could make an good video about Ronaldinho relationship with Grêmio, it was his youth club and he claims to be his favourite, but he is absolutely despised and hated by the club and its fans.
Wow, Really? I'm curious what happened between ronaldinho, Gremio and its fans
@@Fkacu that's a long history. Gremio refused selling him to PSV,PSG and Leeds back in 2001ish. So he signed a pre-contract with PSG the moment he was allowed to without the club consent. The fans and the club felt betrayed because he always told to the press that he would love to stay in the club, and years earlier he said he would even play Gremio for free. Then started a judicial battle. Then in 2011 Gremio did everything they could to get Ronaldinho back,when he wanted to return to Brazil,even offering bigger wages than Palmeiras and Flamengo. But Ronaldinho chose Flamengo cause of his friends and Rio's nightlife. The worst part is that him and his manager never said no to Gremio,they kept Gremio's board on dark until the very last moment. The expectations for his return where really high,they even had speakers in Gremio's stadium waiting for him, only to know out of nowhere he had signed with Flamengo. This was the last straw for Gremio's supporters who started hating him so much that he is almost a "persona non grata"(not welcomed) in Porto Alegre. Still in 2011, Gremio and Flamengo had a match in Porto Alegre which Ronaldinho was booed the f*** out of the building. To this day he sometimes says to the press the Gremio is his favorite club,but he never apologized for the disrespect.
@@leandrou100 I think I might be the only one who kinda buys his brother story. I agree things could be done in a better way but I also think the person who disrespected Gremio the most was the president Paulo Odone. (Falando pra gringo mesmo, mas eu concordo quando o assis diz que Odone fez acordo verbal com o Ronaldinho e depois jogou pra torcida)
That goal for Gremio was absolutely incredible.
It kinda looks like something Diego would do.
That match is know as "The battle of Aflitos", aflitos being the stadium name, but also means distressed haha
I saw him when holidaying in Porto. My mate who’s a big Porto fan said “watch out for this kid, he’s brilliant: only young, will probably only play 60 mins but he’s going to be awesome”. He was, and as a United fan I was really pleased when we bought him. I can’t believe how quickly and badly wrong it went.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I worked with Portuguese lads in the UK and they really believed Anderson was going to go on and a true United legend when he was signed...such a shame he like many others never reached his full potential
So sad
Indeed, a sad Ending 😥. This Guy was already a HERO and a MILLIONNAIRE as a TEENAGER.
I was relatively new to football and uses to watch all the big games in the college TV during 2010-2014 time period ... Remember watching him play as a sub for utd.. Was at times impressed by his sudden moments of brilliance.. And later in completely forgot about his existence.. Thanks for bringing out his story..
Anderson was a baller first time i saw him for Brazil u17. He broke his leg before moving to United.. 2008 was unreal played a key role in the big games winning CL + PL + Golden Ball .. but i think the Knee Ligament finished him 2009.. only elite mentality comeback from such career ending injuries..
I only remember Anderson for being behind Ferguson when he celebrated the famous Rooney goal 😂
@@Pickles-sv2pv fake fan... if u donno his contribution his first 2 seasons.
@@Pickles-sv2pv he scored a penalty in the final against Chelsea Assisted Ronaldo's spectacular goal against Porto. Assisted Welbeck against Arsenal in the 8-2 mauling.
@@Pickles-sv2pv You're either a kid or a plastic fan.
@@theosantana7750 Hi. I'm a fake United fan since 1976. Anderson was garbage for us. Sorry
I have never watched a more elaborate voiceover of a documentary. This is awesome.
I think you should expand your content to teams. For example, the rise of atletico Madrid, early 2000’s Valencia, Juventus after the match fixing scandal or others
great idea
@@nycflacko1917 thanks
Perfect idea
Also the rise and fall of Deportivo La Coruna
That's....not a bad idea
All his rise started in 2005, with his decisive goal in the extra time at the epic match called "batalha dos aflitos" putting Grêmio back to the major league. Such a incredible play he performed undeniably crossing half field with the possession of the ball and dribbling the goalie.
What a goal that was so early in his career. Great skill with the ball getting his leg broke like that probably stopped his rise to legend status like a Maradona or Messie ..what a pity .
@@ROCKYBLUEDOGS u are right
Will watch this with my dinner in the evening, thanks for making such amazing videos I've been subscribed for so many months. Incredible work, I'm so happy to see you grow.
Enjoying it now.
That season an a half with Porto blew my mind. He was so dam good at such young age that i was absolutely sure he would become a mega star. Sadly some ahole from benfica broke his leg and we lost 6 months of spectacular play. The few games with Anderson and a young Quaresma on the pitch together were non stop fireworks.
He took "the next Ronaldinho" label to the max. Even followed his path to go to the jail.
ouch, true XD
Jeez
Lol
Bruh… 🤣
except ronaldinho was most likely setup mor than anything. and it wasnt even jail. he was just chilling at some villa w "inmates" lfmao
Thanks for updating I always was asking myself what happened to him 🙏🙏
Man I was watching this Anderson performance against Náutico. It's known in Brazil as "the Battle of the Aflitos" (name of the stadium). Everyone got crazy watching this match. It was s matter of subject by many sports shows for days over and over. Never something like that happened before. And a boy only 17 years old was the great hero.
WOW!!! I never knew any of this. Who knows what he could have been, if not for injuries and I am a liverpool fan. Good video
Another weekend. Another classy video
I was just listening to a podcast with a player that played with Anderson in Turkey and he told a very interesting story. Apparently he was rooming with Anderson, and one day Anderson said that he just made millions in crypto (showing him the balance on is phone) and he's going to quit football. True to his word, in the next training session he quit the club. So whether he was in or not on the scam is really the interesting point here.
I remember the hype when he signed for United, very interested to see your take on it as your passion your in narration always makes the videos so watchable
Are u joking ?!! His narration is awful.
That goal at his first club was 1 of the best goals I’ve ever seen 🙉😃💪🏿🔥🔥🔥
What's with Brazilian players and nightclub indiscipline?
I guess it’s what they weee used to seeing at the early stage of their lives, plus not getting the adequate attention to steer them away from that path
Brazil is a CRAZY place.
We live in a very unequal society. Normally, football players come from poorer backgrounds, leaving home very early to live in the clubs' lodgings. They lose their childhood and face the pressure of being the new Ronaldo, Pelé, Zico, Neymar, from a very early age. It is common to see these players lose their minds or grow alienated from social and political issues. Soccer, like the rest of the world, is a mirror of Brazilian society. We temps potential, but we are still a third world people.
Brazilian footballer is either a saint like Kaka or a party monger
Money gets into their heads, that's all.
Remember him in fc Porto, he had the talent to be the next deco even better. Remember when he came he bought a good car and he still didn't have age to get a licence car, he was so young and so mature for his age. When he went to Manchester he was the best player in fcporto, but then as the years went by, he practically disappeared from football. Whish him best
Love your videos!! Can you make one about El Shaarawy 😄
i remember him too well. as a fan of blues Chelsea have always hated Man united,until Anderson came to Man united and played alongside Patrice Evra that's the first time i complimented Manches united.
I remember the hype around him and Nani being dubbed the Scholes and Giggs replacements back in 07/08.
I remember his first season at United & I was like ok we have quite a young player here but then with his injuries & inconsistencies he became a nuisance. It's so unfortunate to see how his career spiraled downwards starting in his 20s.
I wished his career went platinum, he was a joy to watch, too much vibes on and off the pitch... We called him T-Pain here in Nigeria because of his hair style
Not lil Wayne 😂
Hahaha wtf!! So true I remember that!! One love brother
Onde foi parar o Anderson🥶😱🤯 Deu cabo da vida dele.
😭 Make a video about De Ligt 🔥🔥🔥
Ronaldinho is one of those players who comes once in a lifetime, we must stop comparing him to average players.
@Taylan Harman yeah i see nothing special about him besides his marketable long hair
Ronaldinho also liked to party, eat junk food and like Anderson never lived up to his potential.
He wasnt average
Can you please do a video on Willian. He left Chelsea for Arsenal and then Chelsea won the Champions League the very same season. I think that would be interesting. Been feeling for him for years now since he doesn't have that trophy.
Willian was a bum
what a delight to watch him play at his peak, could have been one of the best of his generation, as a porto supporter i always had a soft spot for him and hopes that he'd end up coming back and get his shit together
Second time asking for a video on SERGIO AGUERO
talent without hardwork is nothing, this guy got everything Messi have
Is nothing ? You must not be very talented
Not a chance
I remember in the anderson(porto) vs arsenal match, fabregas and gilberto silva had to double mark him. Against cska moscow same group how 9 players had to mark him. Thought fergie misused him but the video made it more clear.
My memory must be deceiving me, but didn't Anderson play together with Quaresma? I swore I'd seen the two of them together in Porto!
Yes, they played 1 season together.
I like ur voice boss. Keep it up
Thank you for your videos.
the love I had for this player
I love these videos buy the narrators voice and cadence are tough to listen to
You should do giovani dos santos , Mexican wonder kid , u17 world champion who beat Anderson Brazil . Came through la masía at Barcelona and was the next big thing. But his career didn’t turn out as expected
He was a bum. Flopping all over the field looking for fouls and penalties. Last name Contreras ?? Yeah, I can see why you think is deserving of a video as if he was the next best thing. GTFOH 😂
I pray for Anderson to get up again n become the man. Right now is like he struggling so bad financially too
I remember being astonished by his quality when he played for Porto, probably the best ball control with acceleration and speed combo I have ever seen and I had no doubt he was on the route to becoming one of the best all time. At my 20s I had already seen football with reasonably matured perception and impressive players like Figo, Rui Costa, Deco, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Zidane, Roberto Carlos, early CR7 and Messi, and I was very excited about Anderson. If I recall correctly, he barely was at the starting eleven and was saved for later on in the matches, which looked to me a waste of his huge capacity to influence the attack. Suddenly he was sold after a few months and I was pissed my team would not retain such a diamond for a season or two. We were recovering from the void left from the departure of Deco (Barcelona) and his replacement Diego (Werder Bremen) and this to me was a blow. At the time I could not follow ManUtd much, so I never seen him play at the same quality again. When I noticed he was repositioned to a box-to-box I could not believe such offensive talent could be wasted this way and I was pissed at the coach for ruinning a player like this. I remember telling a brazilian student how good he was at Porto and how they were destroying his talent at the time. It is a shame he couldn't shine anymore.
I liked this lad just ashame alot of these talented youth end up on the wrongside of life after football.
How do you get all these old videos? Well done
Mais um bom vídeo 👌
Still the best player i ever saw live in Dragão Stadium, he was absurd at Fc Porto
13 : 45 that was pretty cool tho 😂😂😂
13:07 this happened because they were playing in Bolivia at a very high altitude, which is not common in Brazil, Portugal or the UK
Poor guy Loved him as a player
What an absolute legend!!!
Tf you saying child
This is heartbreaking 😭😭😢
I think he and Denilson (the dribbler) were two great talents that just never truly used the potential they had
Can you imagine the level of injuries he had?
@@adekwuadekwugodwin7718 you think that was the only reason?
Denilson arsenal?
@@wnd9434 Real Betis
I remember him cause of that clip with Ronaldo 😹
Clearly wasn’t the most professional player but injury’s got the best of him, had the potential to be up there with the best, his first league goal was class
I really liked Anderson and I wanted to see him become a great player. This is very sad and bad
This guy's story is like every Brazilian story ever. Always talented but lack discipline and motivation.
Anderson, Carlos Alberto, Pato, Robinho and Adriano could have achieved more in their careers but partying ruined their careers, Romario, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho and Neymar also love parties but at least least their football career took off to another level
How do you explain the difference ? Why did Anderson fail while Neymar succeeded with both having a similar lifestyle??
@@Noor6848 Luck sometimes when its on your side and would say Neymar is more technical gifted than Anderson but his lifestyle is the one pulling him down he will never reach the level of Messi coz of it but, K still believes Neymar would have been easy reached Ronaldo's level had he focused on his trade
@@thandomvimbi1558 i don't believe in luck that's why I asked. I believe Anderson was overrated in the first place, sure he was good but his potential was not of Neymar. A scouting mistake from SAF like many others his brother was involved with, expectations too high so when reality hits people think oh there must be another reason, aside from injury because Neymar injuries list is ridiculous yet he manages to still deliver, he doesn't hit the point of getting relegated
don't forget denilson
@@Noor6848 Everyone isn’t the same. Anderson relied more on physicality than Neymar who is more technical so an injury at that time takes away his greatest asset; His pace. Anderson was not overrated, he was unlucky, unfocused and lazy.
stray bullet still hitting Captain Maggy after so many years 😄😄😄
Good video
It’s a minute old so how do you know it’s good? lol
You watched a nearly 15 minute video within 1 minute of posting. Amazing 😆
@@timsmith1323 lads an absolute waffler
If it’s on this channel you know it’s gonna be good
I'd love to see a video about Liverpool disgraced legend Stan Collymore
Well documented
Nothing like Ronaldinho was never gonna be considered him and played a different position completely
Life of Brazilian footballers is all same story 🙄
They keep fumbling it
Not Kaka 😎
I am fed up with the transfers man. Our board is worse than Ed Woodward and Matt Judge and how that’s even possible
Please make a video about Anthony martial❤
Key takeaway don't let injury defeat u...fight
I kinda think poverty in their young age has got something to do with the way some of these Brazilian stars turn out later in life, after the riches. Two other names come to mind; Ronaldinho and Robinho.
It's time we stop letting our talented youths go down like this, too much talent have been wasted and this must stop.
The next Ronaldinho no no no.. There will never be anyone like him again.. Stupidly good.
You can say that again
I remember being a little kid in the car in Porto with my stepfather and stopping so he crosses the road, my stepfather yelled - "Anderson! Glad you didnt go to Benfica, lets win the championship!" Was on of my favourite players growing up was so sad he was sold so quickly to Man Unt
A little late I know, but ngl same is happening with our used to be star Dias, just as he started playing greatly for us, we sold him... I hope it doesn't happen with Diogo Costa
Lol that harry reminder 😭😭😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nobody ever said he was the next Ronaldinho
Exactly
they did earlier in his career.. just like Ronaldinho he was an attacking mid from the porto alegre slums.. its cause he broke his leg at porto and switched to center mid when he was at united so the label was gone by then
They did in the British media
He was such a good player
Anderson was misused by sir Alex Ferguson at man United. Alex made him worse. Used him as a defensive midfielder sometimes, made him irregular, a substitute, he became inactive at man United than at Porto
I agree with you 100%
Anderson always showed He was a attacking Winger
Because he had scholes and Carrick who never gave the ball away
Harsh to say Sir Alex ruined him. Sir Alex reinvented him in light of his injury based limitations and he thrived in that position. Strong on the ball with good control who can either dribble or pass his way out of situations. He won pots with Sir A including a CL. What ruined Anderson was poor discipline. Immaturity. You name it. His prime career may have been short but he did reach some footballing heights.
Everything was explain in this video. He lacks professionalism as an athletes
Do a video on Gabi the Atletico old Atletico captain
So we all gonna just ignore the thumbnail😂😂
They seem to have the same pattern: Adriano, Anderson, Ronaldinho
Hood Brazilians
@@JoshuaKimbrough maybe favelas
Well ronaldinho did lived up to his potential But he could of been an all time great Adriano also live up to his potential but could of been an all time great Anderson did not lived up to his potential.
I loved the player, he was really blessed but then, I'm disappointed! #GodblessNigeria
The story of many incredible brazillian footballers.too sad.
Damn I watched this guy in Man U
Anderson and Carrick I really like them at united.
They are not at United
@@bigboy4333 I liked them when they were there.
John terry missed bro🤣
My guy
This dude was a goddamn beast in his first 2 or so seasons at utd. Then his lack of discipline and injuries were his worst enemy.
I can sense he's now making a video on Greenwood.
Can you do a video with your natural voice 😁
Do Kerlon
Wow. You really never know people just by looking at them. Am a Manchester united fan and knew none of these
do you have one for freddy adu? lol
No one will be like Ronaldinho
Damn. What a sad story
Many are Called but a Few a Chosen
Brazilian players are very talented but they hate to train hard and put in the extra work to set the bar
Brazilian players don't really like tactical football and all the running and tracking back, to them football is fun and skills
@@bigboy4333 That is there style of football.
I love Harry magquio this year he will show every one how good he is one of the best defender in the world he will be his good form will come and world of football will know who he is I am his big fan let's see new season of premier leage
The next cannavaro
Let's meet again here a year from today and talk about how wrong you were.
Who's magquio? Is he better than maguire? He must be
Do Owen Hargreaves
At his worst he was still better than the current squad we have as Man United.
Lol .. we just need signings which yhe club owners not delivering
pls could you do a video on rui costa
why rui costa, did he have similar case?
@@polpol1005 no, just wanted to know why he has been forgotten
@@dannyboywoks6002 I see. He is kinda underrated player in my opinion
Brazilian aways waisted there talents 😢
They rich before 20.. 🤣🤣🤣
That much money can make anyone go crazy.
@@maiden5427 imagine if Ronaldinho had the work ethic of Cristiano.. 7/8 ballon dors instead of 2.
@@theosantana7750 work ethics wouldn't help ronaldhinos game. Notice Ronaldo hasn't been the same flair skill player since 2014? You can't defeat aging legs that come with 40 + games of football every single year. Ronaldhino proved what he needed to prove in the time that was available to him..be greatful.
Brazilians* Always* Wasted* Their*
It looks like there are almighty falls and then there is that of Anderson
