How good was Gheorghe Hagi actually? #GOAT
New episode of a documentary series where I plan to present all the greatest players of all time and then give them a score so a ranking of the best players can be created. In this episode we take on Gheorghe Hagi who played for Barcelona, Galatasaray and Real Madrid for most of his career, not only one of the greatest playmakers of all time but one of the greatest players of all time. See how Gheorghe Hagi ranks and just how good he actually was.

    • @@gunnation3497 I have heard this too from my dad who was told by my grandad, that Dobrin was the best. But I think we have to take into account that that these two players are from different eras. Its true that Dobrin was wanted by Real Madrid President, and Ceausescu did not want to let him go as he was a national treasure. That would have been Dobrin's chance to shine in front of the world, unfortunately never happened. Hagi on the other hand has played for both Real and Barcelona, (a rarity only a number of players have experienced) and he took us to 3 back-to-back World Cups, qualifying each time for the Round of 16. We have video of his most spectacular moments. I think there are many moments of Dobrin that were not captured on camera or lost, which is a shame. Dobrin will forever be one of the best, I just can't say he was better than Hagi who led our golden generation.

  • Hagi was unreal. Ability wise he was up there with the very best players ever. Great dribbler and his long shots were amazing. He was brilliant for Romania. A real leader for them. I remember when Ireland beat Romania on penos in the 1990 World Cup. Hagi was amazing that game. He was so unlucky not to score with several of his incredible long shots. Hit the bar 1/2 times & was clearly a level above everyone else.. Thats the first time I saw him and I was so impressed. Could see he was a footballing genius and I was a fan of his from that moment on. Unfortunately he didnt shine at Real or Barca(altho had some great moments) but I think the pressure of a big club got to him and affected how he played. He needed to be a big fish in a little pond and have the team built around him, like how the Romanian team was. In the right team he was magic.

    @Razormiller@Razormiller2 жыл бұрын
    • Correct! Both Real and Cruiff's Barca had to build a team around him. Both would have had great results. Especially Barca who had a super good team at that time. He didn't have the brain, the spark. This could have been Hagi. I think that Cruiff wanted him at Barca more as a trophy to train him than to make him the exponential player. In my opinion, no one from that team had the value of Hagi. This is a real number 10 with everything in it.

      @realitygrup@realitygrup Жыл бұрын
  • Great player! An iconic number 10 who was very entertaining to watch, albeit being overly temperamental at times; Hagi was so talented, creative, skilful, dynamic, and he scored some incredible goals as well. If only he had had a better mentality and work-rate, and had been more consistent in bigger domestic leagues in Spain and Italy, he could have been even greater, but he still he had a great career and still managed some fantastic achievements with Steaua Bucharest and Gala in particular, both domestically and in Europe. He was also unfortunate not to play for a better national side, but Romania still had a good team and achieved some impressive results with him as their leader, and his achievements and performances in certain international tournaments were certainly memorable and of a high quality.

  • Actually, Hagi went to Real Madrid after the communism regime was done. During the communism days no player was allowed to play outside Romania. Also, Steaua in 1986 was basically the same as the national team because it was Ceausescu’s team. Also, Romania was one of the top national teams between 1990 and 1999. In 1997 Romania was the 3rd team in the world FIFA rank.

    • Actually, you're wrong on multiple accounts. There were Romanian players that were allowed to play abroad, usually late in their careers. It wasn't very common, but there's a surprisingly long list. You can search it yourself. Secondly Steaua wasn't "basically the same as the national team". Yes, there were Steaua players in the national team, but if you look up the starting lineups of the national team in the mid/late 80s you'll realise that most national team players were not from Steaua. Again, this is something you can look up yourself. You are, however, correct in saying that Hagi left Steaua after the fall of communism, though some of his (older) team mates were allowed to play abroad starting '88 (Boloni) and '89 (Stoica, Pițurcă, Bălan). You are also corect in that Romania's highest FIFA world ranking was 3rd.

  • Great clip guys congrats on it. I love it when talents and shining stars never get forgotten, like HAGI! He is a GOD for his community, cannot say regarding Romanians, but as for the minority he comes from Aromanian / Vlahs as you mentioned, Armãnji as we call ourselves :)... I grew up with his magic and love for him. Even when you say he disappointed, for us was a feeling of proudness that he is there and he is REPRESENTING US. And it did not matter what happened, we would still root for him. I love Hagi for what he is as a person first, and not for what he was as a football player. He invested all his money in his passion, in football, giving back all his revenues and talent to his dream project the Gheorghe Hagi Footbal Academy / Viitorul (The Future) Constanta. And in comparison with other talented and famous players, Hagi is my IDOL for this. Moreover, he has two kids: Kira & Ianis who are AMAZING, and turned out as great characters as their father (with capacity of overtake him). Which again, coming from their world (fame & money), it's a recipe for failure WHICH DID NOT HAPPEN, which again proves what Gicā (short for Gheorghe) is all about. LOVE, CARING, REAL BACKBONE, GIVING BACK TO COMMUNITY ... THIS IS WHY I LOVE HAGI and I think this is also why most of the people do from his community. S'bãneadzã Gicã! Armãnlu nu cheari!

  • Hagi and Roberto Carlos had the best two left foots in football world but each enjoyed a totally different technique in kicking the ball. Carlos was specialist in stationary balls and would bend the ball but Hagi was master of surprise shots from long long distances and he would make the ball to swing and fly in a unpredictable trajectory!. When you watch Hagi's shoots with slow motion you will see how the ball changes direction a couple of times and made it impossible for the goalie to guess the direction of the ball.

  • I feel if hagi was able to leave at a younger age he could have adapted in spain better because if you play in not such a dominant league (yeah they played in the champions league and did well, but it's not like you play in the champions league all the time so your not used to the pressure and standards). And you only leave at 25, 26 and you go to a top league it's harder to adapt. An example is let's say your trying to learn a new language its always easier to learn it when younger then when your older. But the guy anyway was special because the Romanians remember him as a god and the Turkish member him as a god too. Fun fact turky actually supported romania because of hagi only one other guy did that and he is called maradona just saying. He was the type of guy who everytime he got the ball he did something , he was exciting did skill moves. Yes he was greedy but he entertained the crowd cant really say that for alot of the players know a days apart from a few

He was somehow desconsider, Romania was just free after 50 years of comunism and an Est European in Spanish League it was not the best picture from the football in that years. You can see the difference after ‘94 in Spanish league. I think they were not prepared for a such tallent and humble person as Hagi in ‘90

He also has a youth academy that bears his name and in which he has a lot to say. His motivation now is to find young talents and help them grow.

Să-ți dau un exemplu Mbappe are deja 112 goluri în 128 de apariții la PSG și 36 de goluri în 66 de apariții la națională, așa fac cei mai buni jucători din lume, Ronaldo din Brazilia are 247 de goluri în 343 de apariții în carieră dintre care 154 pentru Real Madrid. Messi are 672 de goluri pentru Barcelona și 76 pentru națională :) sunt mulți jucători extraordinari care eclipsează jucătorii noștri și chiar și cel mai bun Hagi nu a strălucit la Barcelona și Real Madrid dar întră în primii 50 jucători din toate timpurile din istoria fotbalului.
