For those who appreciate the artistry of soccer/football

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccdh6...utu.be&t=1m25s

This is a compilation of moments, showing the pure genius of Abou Diaby, a French midfielder who plays for Arsenal in the English premier league. His career has been plagued by injuries, and he has had far too few chances to show his skills.

He has started this season very well, as can be seen from the video. His artistry, balance and ability to control the ball by means of a seemingly invisible string while creating space and time that Einstein would have difficulty explaining are a joy to behold.

Enjoy....

"creating space and time that Einstein would have difficulty explaining"...............very good!

How about........keeping the the ball seemingly tethered to his foot ,as if by a string,in such a way that would put the latest Quantum Mechanics theory to shame.

I assume you`re familiar with "string theory",right?

Never let a good metaphor go to waste,as I like to say.

Messi isn`t too bad either,I never miss a Barcelona game if I can get to a TV.

Always fun to watch someone do what he does best.
