Dont ever put pablo aimar on this list! Zero football knowledge. He even added saviola

He shouldn't put Aimar but Macaulay should be there. Apart from the under 17 world cup, what else did Macaulay do to show he has talent

Vinnie2000:
*Javier Saviola
*Dominic Adiyiah
*Christantus Macaulay
*Florent Sinama Pongolle
*Ganzo
*Pato
*Pablo Aimar
*Alex Oxlade Chamberlain
*Renato Sanchez
*Bartholomew Ogbechie
*Bojan Krkic
*Dos Santos of Mexico
Etc

They are Young Super-Talented Players who we thought would win Ballon'dor and World cups
But they never lived up to Expectations.

WHICH YOUNG FOOTBALL STARS DISAPPOINTED YOU THE MOST?🤔

Mine is Pablo Aimar: The young midfielder off Valencia fc was too good
But I do not know what happened with him.

In Nigeria, There was a Striker in our FIFA 2001 Under-17 World Cup.
He was better than Yakubu Aiyegbeni and Victor Agali then
But suddenly,he disappeared.

What's yours?

Is it Victor Brown you're talking about?

Orlandoo:
Oscar disappointed me the most. Leaving Europe (Chelsea) for Chinese league was a foolish decision. I bet he can't handle the limelight.

You are here crying for Oscar while he has secured the financial status of his family for life

Pious Ikedia

Dude was balling in 1999 under 21, fast dribbler.

We used to call him Okada then because of his speed. Dissapointed he didn't get to limelight.

On the topic, many are mentioning footballers who made impact and played in Big clubs. Come on, not everyone can be Messi or CR7

Marco Marin

Femi Opabunmi

Mine should be freddy Adu,that kid was a genius with USA youth teams but injuries and whatever he did to himself just robbed us of enjoying his talent to the fullest .

1. Sinama Pongolle

2. Macauley Chrisantus

3. Bathelomeo Ogbechie

And finally one small size winger in 1998 World Cup. I think his name was Opabunmi, that guy was promising in that World Cup with chief as the coach.

Christantus

Where is Ansu Fati and Theo Walcott

Christantus Macaulay
Florent Sinama Pongolle

These two ...

Christantus was a 40yr old man masquerading as a 17yr old kid. He was the Philip osondu of our time.

Macaulay Christantus oso onwu

I dont care about macauly, I said aimar and saviola

Juan Roman Riquelme

That's football for you, the path isn't always straight forward

Ryan babel, drenthen,

Na luck
.......

But Aimar didn't disappoint joor, Argentina like using old players some years ago

And he played well for Valencia

Eduardo Da Silva

Lukman Haruna

Joel Cambel

Banzi

Adnan Januzaz or whatever and then Martin Ordegard. They never rose to their full potential.

Adding Pablo Aimar to the list shows that you have zero football knowledge or started watching football recently. Pablo Aimar is a real football legend, ask any OG and he'll confirm that

Pablo Aimar....?
You sure say, you dey watch football so....?
Do you even watched Valencia back to back champions League final losses.
Remove Pablo Aimar from that list
He didn't disappoint.

Christantus Macaulay no doubt. Guy was better than Osimeh

Balotelli
Jack wilshire
Josh mcechran

Many more sha.

Don't call martin odegaad
Arsenal captain soon to be winner of champions league and epl?

Okay on a serious note, it's not the arsenal in me talking...I believe if he had stayed in madrid he would have faded out. I mean the two clubs met arsenal and madrid... which team came tops?

Bros..no mention odegaad

Immediately i saw Pablo Aimar( the little magician) on the list, i know the OP na learner and can't be taken seriously. Maybe he thinks one must play for Barca or Madrid before he can be considered a legend in la liga]

We thought he was gonna rise to the Ronaldo/ Messi level. He never did.

Pablo Aimar n Saviola shouldn't be on that list cos they achieved quite a lot in their respective careers

List without Robinho and Wright Phillips is a Gen_z prepared list. These names where speculated for follow popularity of Ronaldo Delima, Ronaldinho and the likes.

we are blessed to have messi and ronaldo in our time. There will never another messi and ronaldo again. Those guys are rare gems found once in a millennia.

Femi Opabunmi played in FIFA Under 17 world cup in 2001

And the next year, our Super eagles coach Festus Onigbinde took him to Korea/Japan WC bcus of Y0ruba connection.

There will be. It's only a matter of time. We thought we wouldn't see any better than Pele, but then came Maradona, Ronaldo, Messi / C.Ronado.

Kalulu44:

Theo Walcott should NEVER be mentioned in a discussion like this.

Scored lots of Goals for Arsenal, won like 2,3 FA cups and also did well in the English National team.

Robinho's career is not all that Bad.😏

In 2010 World Cup in South Africa, he was Brazil's best player.

As for Shaun Wright-Phillips, I do not think he was that Exceptional.
He was another Speedy Winger like Aaron Lennon and Walcott.😒

The Talents of Pablo Aimar could have won him a Ballon'dor.

He was in same Talent levels as Kaka, Iniesta, De Bruyne, Fabregas and Modric.

But suddenly, he fizzled out.
