Has there ever been a fullback with the overall passing ability of this man?

For my money, there hasnt been.

passing ability?i believe not

Ring Wing Boss, is that it? Come on, use a better name

1. Nobody suggested a better one when I asked
2. Many forum members call him that.
3. Its just a nickname to make the tread stand out, is it really a big deal?

I think Cafu had such passing. at crossing though i think nobody is close. what makes him the best RB is his brain more than his skills

Cafu didnt have his passing,

did you even watch cafu play?

Look how old I am, of course I watched Cafu play.

Why would I say it otherwise?

if you watched then you forgot him. watch it here again to remember something

And that doesnt prove his passing is better nor on the level of Dani Alves. He made passes which Cafu simply could not and did not display in that video.

cafu was unselfish passing machine. he had everything that a RB needs. one of the best RB ever if not the best. cafu and alves are on the same level when it comes to passing and vision

And thats your opinion, which is nice, but you have not proven it.

As if proving is an easy task. everyone has his opinion and changing it is hard. only majority's opinion is correct not your or mine. make a poll in FIFA's web-site

No, majority opinion is not right either. An opinion is an opinion.

The point is, your video failed to prove what you indicated it would. The Dani Alves video in the OP shows his array of passing, in case you havent watched the team since 09.

i posted that video to remind you cafu not prove anything. cafu retired a decade ago now there are no video to prove anything. i found only this video about cafu if you compare videos. they are close at passing. i say this because i watched cafu

and you say that a video in this thread shows "array of passing" which cafu video also shows that. how its possible to argue with a user who is in this level i dont know

Why would I need to be reminded of Cafu? And we was talking about his passing, if you wanted to remind me why not show me his passing?

And no, that video of Cafu doesnt show an array of passing. I see alot of cutbacks and crosses, not so many through passes or general link up play under pressure.

Thats because theres no better video about cafu on youtube. i told you it twice. we can compare using our memories and it is all about opinion. but who cares i dont know why we discussed alves vs cafu thing so long. thats because you dont give up until your opponent is dead

i found this video. cafu never played with messi, but from first time understanding between them is good. this shows nothing it was a friendly match but anyways

If there are no videos of his passing, dont post one then lol

We are discussing for so long because you seem to have problems having a proper discussion.

If you just said, Cafu had better passing and explained why you thought it (instead of asking did I watch Cafu and then showing irrelevant videos) then we could of been done by now.

Or at least, after I said Cafu didnt have better passing and could have ignored it and stuck to your own opinion if you wasnt going to debate properly.

I didnt find exactly a video with the title "Cafu passing" but there are ton of passing and crossing in the video that i posted.

i didnt ignore because i thought you will ignore me. but now i see that i must ignore you otherwise until next week we will continue and you will never give up

but anyway watch 2:33 of this video


and 2:52..how you rate those passes?

Nice 2 videos, the first one I saw that game and remember that link up well.

And no, I wont argue with you forever. But I do think in a football forum where discussion takes place it makes sense to keep it relevant and to the point. Thus avoiding confusion.

you didnt tell me how you rate those passes. close to alves level or not

The pass at 2.35 was a good one, well weighted and accurate.

The chip pass at 2.52 was not Cafu, he was the one who ran onto it and put a cross in.

Overall, Dani Alves is putting through passes to people in on goal and things like this, much harder balls, and Cafu didnt do those, nor in this video or much generally.

Daniel Alves, Best RB of his time bar none!
