Having waxed lyrical about this player in my book The Iberian Horseshoe, I was delighted to come across this tribute to Alex Mostovoi on youtube. He is one of the best players I’ve ever had the pleasure of seeing in the flesh. Had he been playing for Barça and Brazil rather than Celta and Russia then the whole world would have been raving about him. I always thought it was a great pity that he was never able turn it on at a European Championship or World Cup. It seems the Russians never do. I think some of the goals and tricks here are equal to anything George Best ever did but judge for yourself. Mind you, he does blast one over the bar at the end so there’s always room for improvement!
