I've been watching a few compilations of Philippe. When watching dodgy streams I miss some nuances, some streams make the players look like international soccer on the commodore 64
He does things faster than the eye can register.
... Or sometimes I just forget the high level of touch, dribble, balance and passing skills this boy has, he does it effortlessly like a great guitar player- they make it look effortless.
I'm sure it's mostly natural born talent and tons of practice too. He's a True Brazilian like he's watched the past masters and still does his own thing. like a musician would learn: scales, riffs, licks and songs; then improvise on the theme.
Enough analogies for me, it's a habit.
We were fortunate when we got him, hope he has a top game today.
