lol sorry I need to just go have a beer or something and chill out, I've been on edge lately and not just because of that thread :lol:
I certainly like Higuain more than Ronaldo and other players I rated above him though, he's a much better sportsman for one thing and doesn't have to resort to...
Well true it can be debated what position a player like Messi really is, he can work both as a forward and midfielder as we have obviously seen but I still include him in those lists.
Anyway I wish Higuain good luck v Germany, hope he keeps scoring as this is probably the toughest match for...
Oh that was in club form btw, not counting what they may be doing in this WC as Torres and Rooney have not been on form
Well it's just my opinion though, I'm still pretty damn happy with his performance for the Argentina squad regardless :) And at RM he scored more than Ronaldo this past...
Well I still count Messi and Ronaldo, they may be arguably the two best but they're still footballers and shouldn't be discounted from a best player list.
Messi, Ronaldo, Drogba, Villa, Rooney, Torres, then probably insert either Milito or Higuain
It's a skill yes I'm aware of that, I'm not saying he's not GOOD, he's still fantastic. he might be in the top 10 but top 5 though? I just feel that's a little much to say
Nice young kid, definitely shows promise and has quite a future ahead of him... been impressed with the little time he has played this WC.
rofl, now enter the flood of people who think Barca should sign him, just like what is happening with Honda, Ozil, etc. :lol: (although Ozil actually looks...
Even though he is scoring all these goals he's still not convincing me that he is world class, great player yes, but his goals are often by chance, that he happened to be in the right place at the right time while Messi created everything. Although that third goal, that header he had v. South...
Exactly, a very special player who is a class defender, has saved Casillas from making dumb errors multiple times so far, while he still has the ability to move up there and score if a chance opens up.
Here too, but I've still heard people complaining about ignorant media. Not sure where they're from though... I wonder if DM knows what the Argentine media are saying this WC because I'm not sure about that
he is one of Spain's strongest players this WC, very very underrated as everyone is focusing only on Villa. Really he is just as important as Villa in this tournament imo.
Well to a lot of people it doesn't matter who you are or what team you are on, if you do something questionable it's still going to be disappointing. If we were talking about Ronaldo here we'd all be saying things like "yeah he dived 100%, what a cheater as usual" but since it is Torres and many...
A little controversy yes, it might be amusing to see a player like Ronaldo argue another one of his stupid dives but when it comes to goals and a WC place or major championship on the line then that is not what we want to see, no matter how much we love seeing rival clubs or countries get...
I hope he does if only to get the media off his back that expect him to score or else he "isn't performing well"
But really even if he doesn't score at least all the sensible people who actually understand that the game is more than just the person who scores know that he truly shined for the...
