MY TOP FIVE YOUNGTERS IN EUROPE ARE : 1)Fernando Torres 2)Wesley Sneijder 3)Cristiano Ronaldo 4)Wayne Rooney 5)Antonio Cassano
I can never spell his name right, but Jeremie Aliadiere is looking like a promising future talent. Time will tell im sure.
Homer pick: 1) Fernando Torres 2) Arjen Robben/van der Vaart/Sneijder (whichever) 3) Daniele de Rossi (Roma) 4) Niko Kranjcar (Dinamo Zagreb) 5) Sarioglu Sabri (Galatasaray) Rooney and Ronaldo are out because those picks are just too well known. Not that Torres isn't, but I had to put him there since he is a Colchonero.
The problem with Ali is that he is becoming annoyingly injury-prone. Hopefully he grows out of this or he could end up like Jeffers, but with smaller ears.
at club level id say ronaldo is better than rooney but rooney p!sses in giant earingboys face at international level!
You must be ignoring Portugal's progress at the Euro's then... particularly who's been their best player. Ronaldo has produced a goal and a nice assist in two sub appearances. Rooney has been great in his own right for England, and you would have to say that both have been the brightest spots for each nation....
to hell w/youngsters.. cristiano is the best player in the world!!! wow, manyoo got themselves just an absolutely wonderful player who is going to dominate World football.. the best passer, and wow, have you seen those tricks he pulls w/his footwork.. its just breathtaking.. ive never seen such utter dominance in my whole life!!! his transfer value is surely well over 100 million quid by now... blah blah blah blah....
I think aliadiere is a decent talent, but he made a huge mistake by moving to Arsenal so young. I think other than a few circumstances foreign talent should develop in their own league. Aliadiere would have been much better if he was playing 1st team football at Auxerre or Nantes. The same thing with that French kid a Bologna. They dubbed him the next Zidane, he should still be playing in France. There are plenty of examples. Madds Timms, one of the most sought after youth players a few years back. Now he just returned on loan from a club in Norway(I think) and he couldn't get a game there.
exactly motterman, i was being completely sarcastic~~ he will probably make 3rd team all EPL (if that existed) next season, which, is nothign to be ashamed of at age 20~ but so will reyes.. lol
Robben is a great lad the next ryan giggs i would say after cristiano he is my favorite player but too bad he went chelsea
i know someone suggested this.. but an 18+ forum should be the rule at least.. some of the nonsense from these little kids is so time consuming to get thru.. granted, i understand i'm not popular w/everyone, but i am educated in football~ please, nobody take the piss.... i was being serious~
