I said that in a match thread (Soton, I think), too. Aside from 3 players we have no complete players at all in the team.
-
I don't put both of them in that category as none of them has played enough games in PL for now (Suarez is not even in the league anymore) on a level as high as Rooney's. But that's a subjective matter, then, as I value longevity very highly. Edit: I see you added Van Nistelrooy. Again, this is a completely subjective matter as well, but I'm high on strikers' being allround monsters and dominant in every area. Van Nistelrooy doesn't really fit the bill but I definitely could have added him to Drogs and Henry due to his goalscoring numbers alone. Guy was simply the prototypical striker for the late 90's and early 2000's.
-
No, it meant to say that when it comes to PL strikers only Drogba and Henry have been as good as Rooney (or better than Rooney) during Rooney's tenure in the PL from 2002 till now. Edit: It's actually 4 seasons that Rooney and Henry were in the PL at the same time, my bad.
-
Ehhh, I know people love to shit on Rooney but this really takes the cake for me personally. As much as Rooney has been overrated by the media and as many flaws as he has (not conditioning himself the best he could, sucking in the NT, not being clutch enough in big games) he has been one of the best players in the PL and in the world for years. To be better than Rooney Kane would not only have to keep his current streak up but reach Rooney's heights for years, which except for Drogba (and Henry if those 4 seasons that Rooney and Henry were both playing in the PL at the same time are enough for you) no other PL striker has managed to do during Rooney's professional career.

When healthy Sturridge is a better striker than Costa.

I'll leave here now. No wonder you're a cats-only person^^

It was more of a bar-room saying than an informative answer, thoug, dude. You can't really deny that
-
Might be the case but that was not the issue here. I just wanted a simple answer to the question in my first post instead of talking about bar-room wisdoms.
-
Favoritism isn't exclusively a Mou thing, though, is it? And hell, I don't watch Atletico games regularly which is why I asked about Koke, smartass
-
Because that's such a good indicator, JJ. I guess Oscar is performing well, too, since he's starting more or less every game?
-
Koke is one of those players I actually wouldn't mind. From the limited game time I've seen from him he seems like more than just a good upgrade on Oscar. That being said I don't have a clue whether Koke is a consistent performer or I have only seen his better games.
-
I use mine only to like pics of dogs and keep being informed about some Better Call Saul stuff.
-
One exception to dozens of easy fixtures. And let's not pretend that that Barcelona side was top-class.
-
Obviously Bayern get a free pass, smfh. It's comical how easy their KO opponents have been these past 2 or 3 years.
-
Out of the club, you mean. I don't even think Oscar has what it takes to be an impact-sub off the bench. It's beyond me how we sold Mata and KDB while Oscar has had about 5 top-class games these last 2 seasons.

Anyone who doesn't go to Kreuzberg when in Berlin is missing out on one of the most unique cultural experiences. It's the place to be.
-
I think people who aren't from Central Europe just really, really like the Gothic and Renaissance style as well as the Jugendstil. Just judging by pictures I'd love to see the Great Market Hall and the Budapest-Nyugati station!
-
At first I thought that our PR/social media department speaking out loud was cool and partially even "the right thing" to do but now they're just beating a dead horse. It makes us look small keeping in my mind that our results lately haven't been good.
-
You're from Hungary and you don't even mention Budapest! I have never heard anyone say a bad thing about that city. Looking at pictures it seems like it's similar to Vienna.
-
Jeez, I completely forgot about Piazon. I don't recall the last time that this happened to me.
-
I agree with the premise but I'm not sure we'd be able to execute our transition game offensively with Ramires in the pivot, especially if Oscar is playing as the #10.
-
That doesn't mean he shouldn't be criticized, does it?
-
How exactly do people expect Luis to go forward and help out Hazard offensively when he has to look out for Terry?
-
Any chance to post the link mate? I don't have a clue who Mou's son is.
-
Like father, like son, I guess?
