Higginbotham is our new favourite person on Twitter…
Erik Lamela, the king of Europa League football, scored an absolutely remarkable goal for Tottenham last night. If you haven’t seen it yet, check it out here.
The skill level Lamela possesses is off the scale and Spurs fans would love to see more of it but his audaciousness last night brought back memories of David Dunn’s botched ‘rabona’ attempt for Birmingham a few years back. Remember this…
The point here is that some footballers have the quality to pull something like that off and others don’t. Someone who falls into the latter category is ex-Manchester United and Stoke defender Danny Higginbotham.
Higginbotham tweeted a funny but unfortunate story about a ‘rabona’ he once attempted…
lamelas goal. I remember trying it at training at Southampton and ended up tearing my medial. Know your strengths. Head it and kick it far
