I love it when the sweds say he is the best Swedish player before that he was a little Gypsey boy no one cared about But I must admit he loves playing for Sweden Great Player I swear if the Gypseys started their own team they would be badass Ricardo Quaresma Van der Vaart Wesley Sjieder Adrian Mutu Cristian Chivu Banel Nicolita Jose Antonio Reyes Eric Cantona Freddy Eastwood Ibrahimovic They would be bad ass
Well I will put it this way, you can count the number of CMs to play for Man United that I rate higher than Scholes on one hand. You could count the number of players in the history of Man United that I rate higher than Scholes on two. If Paul Scholes had David Beckham's image, he would have been the player of the last decade.
ugh, honestly, i think this list is awful. lehmann and van der sar, really? not too mention some of your positions are well off. plus, i don't know of too many inter fans which if given the choice of cambiasso, vieira, chivu, or ibrahimovic, take ibrahimovic last. really, so 2005/2006 where he was maybe the 6th or 7th most valuable player for juve (and that is a stretch) and it was later revoked anyways, and he won the scudetto. I'm not going to get full credit there. now you are going to far the other way. he is underrated on these boards to an extent, but then again we have seen this with other players. If you don't play well in euros or wcs or in the cl, then you don't get rated really high. the only domestic stage to really prove yourself on and possibly get full credit right away is maybe the epl, like berbatov and ronaldo, and even then that is not necessarily true (as in the epl, contrary to popular belief, there are underrated players there). others have to prove themselves on a world cup/euro stage or the cl. Not saying it is right or wrong, but if you look at riquelme and totti and others, until you play well on the big stage, people aren't going to rate you as highly, unless you play at such at an incredibly high level domestically over a period of many years, even the most harsh critic has to begrudgingly give you the credit you deserve. if he proves himself on that stage over the next couple of seasons, the accolades will come, as he is still young. His skills are incredible (and i don't use that word lightly either as he can do truly mind-boggling things with the ball which for a guy his size is not fair), but it takes more than that, though, to be the best player in the world. Also he needs to do it multiple years in a row. he had very good 2004/2005, not so great 2005/2006, excellent 2006/2007, if he can string another great season on top of the last one, then i will really have to strongly consider moving him up there with the elite, top 10 players. until then, i personally put him a little lower. that's just me, though. then again, he is one of the few players that make inter watchable .
Weird list, you rate Reina, Casillas, Lehman and Van Der Sar better then Buffon? Vidic and Finnan better then Nesta or Cannavaro?
Sorry but you're going a bit off-topic there,bud. This thread is now officially about "Who's better,Ibrahimovic or Scholes?"
zlatan is a world class player no doubt about it..he is not the greatest finisher but all his other skills are world class..i think if he was english or brazilian he would probably get alot more recognition..
exactly. so much BS on these boards. He has played in 3 world class teams last 4 years and Real Madrid wants him. The season he has average he had personal problems along with bad groins.
Zlatan is AMAZING! Wow, I mean Wow man, I can't even think of him without spacing out, and drifting into a day dream about his amazing talents. He's really taken Sweden to the higher level. I'd say he's nearly, and I mean nearly on par with Marcus Allback now. Wow. Dizzying Heights.
Then either you're a 3 years old boy or you need to watch more football man ...Zlatan is good, but to say he's the best is an insult to football. Why in the world do u want to compare zlatan with that overated shrek (unless you are talking about their attitude)?? Being better than rooney means nothing. If you actually think he's good, at least try to compare him the like of E'to, Drogba, Henry....but not Rooney lolz
Get over your crush He is a good talent but has not done much until this year still not top 10 striker
My bad last year he started to show what he could really do. But he could have been doing this good for a while now but has not
That's why England sux ...It wasn't a long time ago that most England supporters thought Hesky was crap
dude he was excellent in ajax, excellent most time in juvve and now excellent in inter. I dont know what you want him to do, walk on water? But he is clearly top3 in the world.
I love how most english people who only follow the premiership think they know how good players in seria A and La Liga are. I live in England and I think it's kind of cute when the banter gets going. If Ibra was english he'd definitely be rated higher than Rooney, Owen and Hesky(!) !!
