Who is the current most tekked out English player?

[Yeshua]

A friend of mine has a good definition which is, technique being ball manipulation in receiving, carrying & striking the ball...

For me, to have great technique, you need to excel in those 3 areas & I don't think Sterling does just yet.

The players I mentioned earlier all do moreso than him even though Sterling may carry the ball better than Wilshere for example, his receiving & striking technique may OVERALL be better. As an example, not saying it isn't up for debate for the record.

 

He excels at the bolded.

[Kuffir]

sterlings first touch is good but basic, aint seen him spinerooni himself out of a tight situation like lallana can

So a player like Gotze wouldn't have great technique, because he doesn't strike the ball consistently with pinpoint accuracy and power? What about Alonso who excels in protecting the ball, not necessarily being able to carry it, same thing with Scholes, both excel in 2 of the 3 areas but i think both players are great technically.

Should really be put into categories 

 

Att

 

Mid

 

Def

 

GK

 

All 4 pos's can be technically perfect in their own right.

[Lieutenant]

Lallana easy

Seeing him play last week confirmed this

[Lieutenant]

Sterlings first touch needs some work, especially in the last third

[gattsu]

Doubt many people would agree but jack carries the ball better than Sterling in fact most English players now.

Nothing to do with his ability or technique

He had just been playing like a idiot and wasn't even fit due to getting clampings for not releasing the ball soon enough

His technique when carrying the ball wasn't the issue, his decision-making was.

These things don't work in isolation.

He definitely excels in carrying the ball. I would say he's very good at receiving the ball but wouldn't say that's something he EXCELS at.

[Michel Kane]

why man saying was like he doesnt still do it

 

You obviously haven't been watching him this season.

I hear what you're saying & agree to an extent. You don't have to excel in all 3 areas to be considered an elite technician but for me personally, you need to excel in at least 2 of the 3.

 

That isn't to say the other players compared EXCEL as such but I think in some areas, are overall better than Sterling.

[O Fenomeno]

If true that looks bad

We was told he is the best young player in Europe

[O Fenomeno]

Dribbling(changing direction),stepovers,elasticos,rabonas etc etc thats tekked out IMO

Thats Craque material

[Seydou]

I don't know what Raheem you man watching but to me, he looks to have better technique than Lallana.

Jack got the best teq though, at the moment.

[youcleanwepaint]

can we classified this into positions or is that too much to ask

[Yeshua]

If true that looks bad

He is.

 

Some of these players have a similar amount of tekk, but none of them the brain.

He is (u21).

You truly believe he is the best young player in Europe right now?

Fair enough

Not going to debate about it(95 %of players U21 are average)

[Mame Biram Diouf]

Ronaldinho was technique
