Where’s the Rasta?
As soccer times move on through the 80s, 90s and beyond there is normally one or two dread locked fellows that inspire 
soccer at the highest level.
The 80s had Ruud Gullit running the clock work orange and inspiring the world to be skilled, outgoing, brilliant and dreaded. The shorter dreads went to Frank Rijkaard, a little younger, a little more reserved and still impacting the world as Barcelona’s top dog.
After these two graduated, we had two more special victims of circumstance. Edgar Davids, with a name like Edgar you could understand how the Pit-bull was a more fitting name for this defensive midfielder, who when he came up on your back in one vibration of a second. he would have the ball. and you would be picking up an injury (think Gattuso with skills).
Along side this dreaded titan of the 90s was his natty compatriot Clerance Seedorf, with another first name that makes the ears bleed. Seedorf himself is currently the Grand Patriarch of A.C. Milan. You say, “Mongoose, that guy doesn’t have dreads.” Well as a wise reggae artist once said, “You don’t have to dread to be rasta.”
So Seedorf is still in, but for how long? This year might be his last year. He might settling back as rivals with Cocu if Ajax is his final destination.
What does that mean for the title of most impact-full dreaded machine in existence?
Beats me! There is no one with dreads on the world scene that is turning out Jamaican inspiration. So the question goes out to you, my lucky little Savages. “Who is the best dreaded player playing right now?”
If I had to say someone. I’ll go with current Borussia Dortmund star Tinga of internacional Fame. Let us know your pick!
