Ronaldo already has 6 goals this year in the Premiership, much tougher than the Bundesliga, and a far better number than Scweinsteiger's 3. But, he does beat Ronaldo on assists by 1. Hardly, FAR AWAY.
I haven´t talked about Schweini only in Bundesliga, but in CL and national team aswell - "the big stages". And I´m not underrating the other young players, I only stated, that he is at least on the same level, but often forgotten if people talk about the young-guns. For example take a look at this list for the international top goalscorer of 2006. They only count international goals out of national-team games or continental club competition games. You find Schweini, the left midfielder, surrounded by lots of strikers and forwards on the 7th place, but you will not find any Rooney, Ronaldo, Messi around him. http://www.iffhs.de/?388d85ff0e003c4f05f68e05b85fdcdc3bfcdc0aec70aeedb8a20c
No one is disputing that Ronaldo is good. He is definitely world class. He is just saying Schweinsteiger is underrated, which is very true
Which is the hardest league to score in now out of the big 5? Is the bundesliga really easier to score in than the epl?
Bundesliga is a very high scoring league so I'd say yes it's easier to score there. England seems to have a lot of good goalkeepers so some otherwise high-scoring games end up low-scoring.
How's he underrated? He's been in the top 50 of several international footballer of the year elections since the world cup. No Dutch player has had that honour this year.
Portugal has some future legends too.. Sporting: Nani (not!), João Moutinho FC Porto: Quaresma Benfica: Manuel Fernandes, cuz he's back again
These may or may not become future legends as you know talents are unpredictable.But they may end up as world class Strikers Messi Podolski Rooney Torres Huntelaar Kerlon Aguero Tevez Midifielders Fabregas Schweinsteiger C. Ronaldo Ribery Kroos Diego van der Vaart Sneijder Gourcuff etc..... Defenders Kompany Mertesacker Lahm Toure Richards Abidal Goalies(only 2) Rensing Gordon
Nice list, but you missed Oscar Ustari, Igor Akinfeev, Scott Carson for Goalies Raul Albiol & Van Buyten for Defenders !
You guys seem to forgot some players heres another great talent from Poland Jakub Blaszczykowski hes very young and talented even Boniek himself considers him one of the best currently teams such as Roma Manu Spartak SS Lazio are looking to get him Heres a little movie of his skill http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eANY0FF0Q4U&mode=related&search=
Damn, he is amazing. I heard of him on a Football Manager lol, but never thought much of him. Another one is Anatoly Gerk, Turkish

Im waiting for Van Persie to take it to the next level. Wenger needs to show more belief in the boy. With the right coaching he will step up to the plate. The boy has it all!
