wow....i'm blown away. I've always loved watching football. I remember when I was watching world cup japan/n. korea, i couldn't wait to watch the brazil games even though they as a team played like shit in the finals but still won because of their insane trio of strikers.

but about the kid...i'm not too impressed with all the drop shots except for the one at about 3:20. Those shots won't really make it in when you get to the pro level. But as the british would say, his control with the football is absolutely brilliant!

He's ok, I wonder how long it will be before someone stops him. I think that theres talented kids like that all over the world, especially at the level that they play at.

But props to him, some of those things he did made me say wow.

According to the video he was only 6!!!! "He's ok.."come on, 6 years old, and he better ball control than most the guys that I played with in highschool. I would of liked to see some more assists from him.. but still that was damn impressive.

I guess you also have a dislike for Vasek then, right?

I've read he plays with 13 and 14 year olds in the most recent videos (he's 9 there). In the earlier clips when he is 6, I'm not sure what age group he is playing against. But to say he's only ok?! This kid has amazing ball control and can shoot rockets with both feet at age 6!

Shooting: Amazing

Dribbling: I like how he can cut people, but it seems like none of the defenders know how to do anything than run in full speed and stab. I'd like to see him against a defender who knows how to contain.

Regardless, he's a crazy fool.
