Alexis Sanchez - The best player in the Premier League

[Stan_Darsh72]

David De Gea needs more love in this thread.

 

[moomba]

Everyone knows he's talented but he doesn't score any goals, Alexis is talented, Alexis scores goals. Hazard scores penalties.

Was Vieira elite?

No don't be silly, he didn't score penalties.

Id have Sanchez second. Aguero currently the best player in the EPL. KDB rapidly catching them both.

Petr Cech says "hmmm, maybe "

If the super glue they patched his hip up with in April holds him together, this guy will be in the discussion in a month's time. Looked very sharp since returning to the side.

 

[Cruyff14]

The "logic" shown by some people here is incredibly alarming.

 

[Jatz]

Yeah, all your logic is terrible.

As WorldCup2022OZ said, Vardy has most goals this season.

Therefore, Vardy > all

 

[FAITH]

aguero is by far the best player in the epl but still a level below suarez

 

[DaZorko]

Oh please Ivanovic killed Sanchez, and his Chelseas weak link.

 

[Cruyff14]

Yeah I guess one game must mean he isn't good.

I really rate Sturridge but I've never seen him as a player you'd mention in discussions for the best in the league tbh. When he was dominating alongside Suarez I viewed him similarly to how I viewed Rooney when he was playing with Ronaldo, as in they're both quality footballers who can lead the line and be key players for big clubs, but they just don't have that extra level that the Ronaldo's, Suarez' and Aguero's do IMO.

That dance counts "studge" out, sorry.

To be fair to Sturridge, you've just named Ronaldo, Suarez and Aguero who are all in the top five players on the planet.

We'll see over the next few weeks/months I guess. If he can stay fit then Aguero is the only striker I'd take ahead of him in the Premier League. Speed, touch, dribbling ability, finishing from inside & outside the box, he can create chances out of nothing for himself and for others - he's elite in so many areas of the game it makes him just about unplayable (when he's actually on the park!), and his scoring record speaks for itself.

The only caveat for me is his fitness, that's the only reason he's often missed when these 'best player in the league' discussions are brought up but on ability he's definitely around the mark. For his and our sake, hopefully the surgery and overly cautious approach to his rehab this time around has done the trick.

It's difficult to genuinely gauge how good Sturridge is because of his recurring injuries and periods of football missed. At his best, yes he's all class.

But not sure its a clearcut case of only Aguero being better than him in the league. Costa for me is second.

And there's Sanogo.

 

[Cruyff14]

Lewandowski is the best striker in the world currently IMO.

Costa? Really? Aguero, Sanchez, yes. Not sure about Costa. But I guess Sturridge just has to stay fit and prove to everyone how good he is.

Unfair bringing up Sanogo as nobody is in his class.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Aguero
Sanchez
Silva
Hazard
Joe Allen.

Have you forgotten how good he was last season already?

I rate Sturridge in Torres's class, and both are as injury prone as one another

 

[moomba]

I almost think you need to start Sturridge from scratch. Could return to past glories, but theres a good chance he won't.

Will be interesting to see. Has all the talent in the world.

 

[jod23]

Well he has been back a few weeks now and hasnt gotten injured so yay for that.

 

[Jatz]

Yes! By a mile. He's absolutely killing it atm!

Beating up on Newcastle is fun but, well, it is Newcastle...
