Have you got 20 minutes to spare? Who are we kidding? When it comes to Juan Roman Riquelme, of course you have 20 minutes to spare.
To be fair to the mercurial Argentinean midfielder, during his heyday he was so good that he always looked like he had 20 minutes to spare and he had an uncanny ability to slow a game down to the pace he wanted to play it while he conducted proceedings like an orchestra from the number 10 position.
As well as that, he has scored some cracking goals in his time with Boca Juniors, Villarreal, Barcelona, the Argentine national team and current club Argentinos Juniors,
for whom he scored a wonderful free-kick only a few weeks ago.
We’d have no problem watching Riquelme all day long but we highly recommend that you put the kettle on, kick back and drink in over a half a century of great goals from one of the most elegant and classy footballers of the modern era.

You won't regret it.
