Dribbling is running with the ball.  It's not really up for discussion; you're just wrong.

It actually isnt,it's a different skill. But like Baz said,it makes fuck of all of difference unless you are a stats nerd. The only stats that matter are goals and points.

 Who do you dribble then, yourself?

 

Its like discussing with people from a forgotten part of the world who have never watched or played football their entire life.

 the object of the verb "to dribble" is the ball, not any other player.

According to the FA (as quoted above by Baz) it is just running with the ball; nobody else needs to be involved at all.

It's hilarious to see a Norwegian dude telling a bunch of native Anglophones that he has a better understanding of the meaning of English words.


I obviously have a better understanding of football, and the term «dribbling» used in football.

That Nunez goal yesterday cutting in from the right was better than any Salah has scored in similar positions. In-fact I’d go as far as to say we need to drop Salah and put Nunez on the right. It’s where he belongs. Fede through the middle and Diaz on the left. Is the Saudi transfer window closed?

There is dribbling and there are dribblies.

As you approach a defender you are dribbling - when you get close, you do a dribblie and go around him - as he lay in a heap you continue dribbling away.

 

Also pace dribblies don't count and pace dribbling is really just running fast next to the ball.

So, he’s not running down the wing, he’s dribbling down the wing -Sala Salah Salah the Egypt King.

 

or is he a Prince, and not a King, so he’s A dribbling Prince?

 

These are the kind of details that need addressing, and this is why I joined this merry band of cut throats, murderers. Bounty hunters, desperados, mugs, pugs, nitwits, halfwits, dimwits, vipers, snipers, con men, Indian agents, Mexican bandits, muggers, buggerers, bushwhackers, horn swagglers, horse thieves, bull dykes, train robbers, ass kickers, shit kickers and Methodists.

Dribbling is moving with the ball close to the body in tighter spaces,eg Figo,Laudrup,Mo. Running with the ball is running with the ball in more open space with it further from the feet,see our two full backs in their prime plus the likes of Cafu,maybe?

We could go on for hours, splitting hairs over that distinction. The point is that the definition of dribbling does not involve going past an opponent, despite what Opta and Code say.
