Lol :D

"Thierry Henry's record at the 2002 world cup was 2 games played (Senegal and Uruguay), 0 goals scored and 1 red card as France went out in the group stages as previous champions.

I can't fully recall but from my limited memory he played in the PL and was dogsh*te, thank god we never tried to get him, look how badly he played in 2 matches!!!!"

Costa, cavani, mandzukic and even aguero all missed clear cut chances in the first few matches of the worldcup.

I can't judge them off world cup games unless the refree sprayed them with the vanishing spray and they perform disappearing acts.

When did Aguero miss a clear cut chance ?

Yes but he also does this...

Great goal no doubt, but not what I would call something "created by himself out of nothing", or to be more specific...he did not create the chance entirely by himself.

If you take a look at his goals last season:

Most are from chances served on a plate for him

Also...before someone comes breathing down my back, I'm not in anyway against the signing. I just don't see how he will be the type of forward that Jose claimed he was looking for

How many golden chances in the box do you think the combination of Eto'o/Ba/TORRES missed last year?

How many goals do you think Costa has to score to be considered a good buy?

A strikers main job is to score, right? Anything else is extra. He shouldn't have to create when he has Cesc, Hazard, Oscar, Willian.

I think DC meant teams that won something with the strikers firing them to it. Del Piero (from what I remember of 2006) changed the semi final but wasn't really crucial to the rest of the games. Inzaghi also got a goal or two, but again, not really the catalyst for victory.

I could be wrong though.
