When I was a kid playing in the street, I always pretended to be someone. Who did you pretend to be?

I was Sammy McIlroy or Stuart Pearson.
 
till i was 12 i used to play (with bad results) as a fwd.... i pretended to be Totò Schillaci. :mrgreen:

then i started playing as a cb... didn't pretend to be anybody, but i guess we could say that my idol was baresi (who else?;) )
 
João Pinto, Karel Poborsky, Rui Costa, Roger Galera (now in Corithians) and Pierre van Hooijdonk. :D
 
My personal heroes from the early 90's who I pretended to be when I started playing football after Italia '90: Lothar Matthäus, Totò Schillaci, Thomas Häßler, Roger Milla. Later also the likes of Romario, Dejan Savićević, Gheorghe Hagi...

Davids and later on Dani. I miss Dani :(

Yeah, and then he came to Benfica and made a spectacular season with van Hooijdonk, Roger and Mourinho as a coatch. Lovely Dani's left footed free kicks and skill that I almost miss! :(
 
Micheal Owen, looked like him and played like him :D

then later Zidane as I lost my pace. Except with less skills :D Just the passing and vision.
 
in the park, on the field or in my street, I always used to be Becks, plus I used to play right midfield for a team, plus took the corners and free kicks, those were the days
