Quote:
Considered the most complete and reliable member of the French national team, a player of high technique, elegant and attractive moves. Jean Jacques Marcel was a physically strong right runner with qualities both in the defensive and in the play forward, had a hard shot and a good head ball play – 76 goals in over 420 league plays were unusual in that time for a midfielder. Central defender or defensive midfielder, later striker, Jean-Jacques Marcel was a precursor by being one of the first full backs to participate in the offensive game. With a very good technique, good physical qualities, a good head game and a heavy shot, he is one of the first defenders to look forward and can play at the half position with the same class. He also played often inside right or left by scoring a lot of decisive goals, but also central back, precursor of Franz Beckenbauer of which he already possessed the class and the elegance.
