[Albion] The turn

[albionfan37]

Who’s better at it groß or cruyff

 

[banjo]

He’s very good at it though.

I just love that commentators marvel at it - but we know so much more. I can't wait to see it live again

 

[Bozza]

In years to come, it will surely be referred to as "The Groß turn".

Essentially, it's an example of where the cover version is better than the original.

 

[CaptainDaveUK]

He seems to do it several times each game and it works every time!

 

[CaptainDaveUK]

I shouted Cruyff turn just before he did it. I think we all expect it but the opposition don’t see it coming.

 

[lawros left foot]

Pascal is contractually obliged to produce at least on Cruyff turn per game.
The reason they work is because his pace is deceptive.




He's slower than he looks.

The one where he then hit his own foot with the cross was funny.

 

[Sea Cider]

It's a thing of absolute beauty. Love that man!!

It already is amongst my mates.

I said to my work colleagues the other day that I reckon he must hold the record for the slowest Cruyff turn. But it works every time, it's amazing.

 

[Sheebo]

The Nathan Jones stepover all day long.

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Time stands still around him.

 

[blue-shifted]

The reason it works is because he has a very decent left foot cross.

Defenders know this and have no choice but to cover it.

The first Gross turn of a match is a special highlight for me and I look forward to them immensely. Everyone knows he's going to do it, even the opposition, and still he gets away with it. Magic.

 

[SeagullinExile]

The two in quick succession in the first half were hilarious! I think he made himself dizzy and just pinged the ball behind the goal line. Classic.

 

[Hilltop]

Cruyff could never do that turn in slow motion like Gross.

Don’t opposition defenders what videos any of their opponents anymore?My Gross-Dar is pretty strong and I just know now when he’s going to do it, great technique but it’s not exactly rapid, which is why I can’t understand how so many athletes fall the trickery

I’m still gobsmacked by it. Works every time. Literally. How can defenders not see it coming? How?

We cheered the one in the first half only for him to then shank the ball behind

You clearly haven't watched the Matrix
