Showmasters Admin showmasters Posted May 26, 2009 Showmasters Admin Share Posted May 26, 2009 We are pleased to announce our latest guest for collectormania OSSIE ARDILES Osvaldo Ardiles is a football coach and former midfielder who won the 1978 World Cup as part of the Argentinian national team. A competitive and skilled midfielder, he became a cult hero in England, along with Glenn Hoddle and compatriot Ricardo Villa, as a player for Tottenham Hotspur. As manager of Tottenham in the mid-1990s, he famously played several matches utilizing a formation that had five forwards, a formation that hadn't been used in English football since the 1950s, which "Ossie" mainly used because of Tottenham's perceived defensive weakness.
