bcoz he didnt play when he first came? once he started playing i think he did the impossible and almost single handidly saved the.
No, that's not right. It took him a long time to settle, and I think it was somewhere in January where he started scoring and playing good. West Ham were Carried by Bobby Zamora, even after Tevez started scoring.
he has won south american played of the year twice, scored like 20 goals in brazil where the fans loved him which is rare. came to west ham, once he got settled i think he killed it which is rare again, bcoz i cant think of any other south american who has done what he did in that space of 10 matches.
Wow! A south American scored seven goals in 26 matches in the Premiership. Bravo! He must be the new Maradona.:howler:
I believe the textbook definition is "someone who can CONSISTENTLY perform at the highest level". Tevez hasn't done that yet, neither has Messi even though he is a lot closer then Tevez.
tevez is definetely world class, any player that can beat players, score a lot of goals and make a lot of assists is world class. he is playing as a CF at man united, wait someone to partner him
Riiight. Then what about Cannavaro? Is he World class or has he ever been?
i like tevez he is great, he is enjoyable to watch
Yeah me too. But some people overrate him. Laymen mostly. Media are usually quite fair.
your comments are funny, imagine anyone playing down messi.
You have to play him down, since people refer to him as the new Maradona. If you have ever seen Maradona play you would know Messi is not even close. There's a resemblence but when it comes to skill, Messi will never be better then Diego. He can score as many handgoals as he wants trying to emulate his idol, but he will never be him. The scary thing is that all it takes is one very good season from him, where he scores maybe, 15-20 goals and the media circus will be all over it. And people like you will start believing he's best in the World.
barcelona fans want him to be the only one of the fab 4 not to be dropped with over 60% of marca's poll saying that, but some bloke from sweden knows more than catalan barcelona fans.
They want that because at the moment Messi is outshining everyone else. Not because they believe he's generally a better player then the other three. And besides the general opinion from the large mass interest me not, because the large mass consists to a large degree of simpletons and morons.
btw experts have also acknowledged messi he has recieved many awards i think young player of the year even tho he was out for about half the year
That's because he deserved it. Look, it's all about perspective. Some people put Messi in the same bracket as Ronaldinho and Kaka, and those people quite frankly don't know what they are talking about. They're just voicing their personal opinion of who has the most skill, not who actually performs at the highest level, with consistency throughout the season.
I would say Messi right now is top 10-20.
You saw your shot, huh mate? Not last season, I don't. Because I put more emphasis on league play rather then CL. But generally Kaka is a better player.
