It underlines how many people have the ability to control a football, have that ' feel'...but don't have the athletic DNA, desire, or ability to turn pro in the eye of today's football. 

Cast our eye back to many footballers who had that special touch...now a long gone memory.

Sadly it's become increasingly more common.

Palmer promised...but didn't deliver.

Memehti promises...but looks another Palmer. 

Let's face it..both seen in modern times as skillful, but imo... mediocre skill wise professionally compared to their equivalents.

Adding to my previous comment, what astounds me, is how we now think this is special. 

These ' skills' were common practice in my day. I remember so many of my team mates and myself doing this in training and on our own. 

Those who did it and were more athletic got picked up...but they were very much more athletic than skillfully.
