This narrative of this video gives the idea he had a failed career only because he did not achieve the same level as Ronaldo which apart from Messi nobody achieved. Nevertheless, he is a ballon d'or nominee and a man utd player of the year. He had a great career and for a short period of time was one of the best players in the world.

Yeah he had a few good seasons but I don't think he was ever the best player in the world.. I rate prime Rooney better at man unt from a teenager he was different class.. surez was better and played in a weaker team than man unt Gerrard was also better from a young boy to then captain of Liverpool winning uefa cup champions League and someone that was a leader could assist tackle had amazing range of passing and also could score and assist goals and Liverpool were a weaker side than AC Milan Chelsea and man unt .. Chelsea offered him crazy money alot bigger salary but he chose to stay at his boyhood club..Nani a good player has world class players around him and strikers so even a bad cross into the box guy like van persie Rudd van nistelrooy Rooney would score was playing with Paul scholes Giggs Ronaldo.. Rio Ferdinand vidic in defence.. and with his pace skill get the ball in the box he would get an assist and he did score some great goals.. but he wasn't the best finisher could miss some easy chances but he was good.. but not better than a prime Giggs at man unt or a figo at Barcelona or Madrid figo has better finishing and was technically better.. but Nani was a great player on his day but never the best player in the world

Grew up watching Nani. Wish everyone would stop comparing to Ronaldo, saying he didn't "Live up to the potential". The guy was a beast and gave me and so many United fans, great moments. A brilliant and underrated player. What is even was his potential then, if he had such a fruitful career, scoring so many important goals and became a United legend/cult hero. Thanks for the memories, Nani.

Thank you for speaking my mind bro. SAF never compared Nani to CR7. Nanị was a great player with great ethics, hardwork and professionalism. Nani was actually among the best players in the world, but sporting and Portugal probably kept comparing him to CR7. I had such an experience with JJ Okocha and Wilson Oruma of Nigeria. Oruma let people's comments about Okocha get to him. This is someone who was personally picked by the great Pele as best player of the JVC Japan cup in 1993. He left his own style and tried to play Okocha's. Nani however was not like that, he played his own style and we at United saw him. He was great to have as he controlled play like an unsung Chelsea hero (Eidur Goodjonssen) or a France Sissoko (previous one).

It never ceases to amaze me how football can lift so many out of absolute poverty, of course they’re a slim majority, but it’s good to see nonetheless. Obviously it shouldn’t be that way in the first place, but I’m happy for Nani. Especially for being able to find his dad and then his friendship with Ronaldo is beautiful 😂

As a Manchester United supporter for 40 seasons. I enjoyed Nani's career at United. He had some great performances. He is also a multi millionaire so l don't think he has suffered too much do you? I have worked a lot harder in youth support and currently can't find a rental in Australia. Keep it in perspective. There is only one Ronaldo it doesn't mean everyone else wasn't of value. Please watch Alpha and omega productions to hear what's really going on.

Nani. How we missed him in Sporting! What a player!

Great video! Done such a good job!

Always remembered Nani cutting in from the right and unleashing shots from his left leg. Great video

I love your videos each time I watch them I fall in love with football all over again, I wish you could do one on a Rangers player like Gazza or Davie Cooper even maybe Albertz who we called Der hammer cause his shots were like rocket blasts

Great narration. 👍

Awesome video, felt like you should have highlighted his MLS career more, because he did great things there

Magical video bro

kinda crazy but one of the first matches I remember watching was the community shield between man city and united, I don't remember how city scored two of their goals nor remember how united scored their first as I was around maybe 7 years old, but I remember nani scoring the second and third goal for man united securing the comeback and his celebration where he pointed at his name at the back of his kit infront of the man united fans.

nani was a different player more similar to giggs n beckham but unfortunately everyone wanted him to play like ronaldo. Me being a united fan and only realizing this now shows how much fans n managers misunderstood the player

Legend has it that Nani inspired Dappy from N-dubz. Dappy was a young man with a stutter. Whilst eating a Greggs pasty and looking into a window of John Lewis. A young Dappy saw Nani score an amazing goal against Burton Albion. As he tried to scream Nani's name in ecstasy (pause) he stuttered and shouted those immortal words... Na na naiiii and the rest my friends, is history.

hi man i love videos i spent most of my time watching them for almost 2 years now ... After watching your puskas and di stefano video but please can you do laszlo kubala and raul

Nani was amazing. Wish we had a player like him now.

He was a very frustrating player during a frustrating time watching United. We grew to expect flawless demolitions but the terrain was changing. I never saw his assist stats and it's incredible to think he was a better goal creator than Giggs and Cantona. Great video.

Euro 2016, I was watching that game and this man was untouchable. Constantly testing the keeper. He put on a show, and I'll re-watch that performance.

Ronaldo is one of one ain't no one doing what he did again ever

Nani was given every chance to shine after Ronaldo left for Real Madrid. He just wasn't consistent enough and was plagued by injuries... It's a shame because he was a very likable character. Also 9:55 the graphic is wrong

Nice to see so many supporters of Nani ♥️🇵🇹

I think when life just happens so quickly where you’re at the bottom then all of a sudden at the top, you don’t have time to self reflect and build character. All he knew was work hard and be loyal because it seems like there was always someone there taking him under his wing and whoever that was, he would just be loyal to them. So he couldn’t really build that ego which was needed in times where he should’ve maybe put his foot down. Shouldn’t have been benched for that final, makes no sense from Fergie.

As an Orlando City Supporter I miss Nani dearly he was always so fun to watch

Non of our current wingers will ever reach the level of Nani

As a man utd fan and a season ticket holder for the last 15yrs believe me Nani was loved by the fans. This narrative doesn't talk about how much Ferguson stood by Nani and praised him. He was only dropped when tactics and injuries made it necessary. It was after Ferguson left it went pear shaped for Nani

I feel like bojan and Nani can relate to eachother a lot. If messi and ronaldo didn’t exist those two would be the worlds best but the comparisons killed them

Nani was a great Wing, he could fly with the ball and make some big crosses and make defenders look weak, but he didn't make as many goals as Cristiano and therefore couldn't shine as much...Cristiano and Nani played together in the national team for so many years they understood each other and got along just fine

I don't get the "never had a chance to prove himself to the world" argument. Played well for Sporting. Played well for United and won all trophies. Went on playing well for other clubs after the United era. Was absolutely instrumental for Portugal Euro 2016 win. A load of great players never got to win nearly as much as him.

This video opened my eyes to Nani. What a player.

He was my fav player growing up!

everyone needs a friend as Ronaldo, he pushed you to be better. You can`t be great if you are surrounded by average people.

A very touching story. He was a great player, a great entertainer. Too bad too many couldn't see him for who He was instead constantly comparing him to Cristiano

Nani is my childhood hero .. when everytime playing fifa he is good at scoring

One of my favourite Man Utd player ever. So under rated

Regarding the prem player of the year nominations Scott Parker pretty much single handedly kept West Ham up that year and was 7 out of 10 every week consistently. and Charlie Adam banged in over ten league goals from centre mid for what was at best a low championship level Blackpool squad, which resulted in an expensive move to Liverpool. they both fully deserved their nominations and I don’t think you watched the prem in that era enough to understand the impact they both had on their teams

Nani was loved at Man Utd. Especially after Ronaldo left. He pretty much carried the Wow factor torch and he always turned up in the big games. How many players can boast of the career he had? Not many. Consider players like Zlatan and Buffon never won the CL.
