Fair enough, it’s all subjective territory anyway.
Drogba was a big game beast, his record in finals is ridiculous. Both he and Rooney did as they pleased against Arsenal.

Yeah, not many better big games players I can think of than Drogba.
Ramos probably the only one that immediately springs to mind.

Gerrard was always a big game player. Hold a record i think for being the only player to score in the league cup final, FA Cup final, Europa/UEFA cup final and the CL final.

George Best was overrated AF.
MLS is now a better standard of league than Serie A.
Tottenham will continue to bottle it in their quest for major silverware (it's in their DNA)

I've watched some of the play-offs this week and I can't say this is the case at all. Finishing and defensive positioning leave very much to be desired, Portland's defensive set-up for Dallas' injury-time equaliser was comically bad.

Not with Mou driving the bus, which is a bit ironic considering his famous quote about Tottenham.
There's unpopular opinions and there's s**t ones. MLS is better then what people give it credit for but it's still s**t. The Orlando-NYCFC penalty shoot out was amateur hour at its finest.

I knew the first response would be this but i posted it anyways to see if anyone would actually not mention it. But first post. Despite an unfortunately slip which is all it was. It wasnt bad play or a missed chance or Gerrard being s**t, it was a just a slip. Despite that, he's a big game player.Against that....

Yeah he was champion of the game no doubt but fk me if that wasn't one of the funniest moments in the history of the league. Much more meaningless now that the crushers have won the league again.

Never found it funny personally but I'm over it because we now have Klopp and we've won the European Cup and we are back to summit of English football as Premier League Champions! All is well!
Go back to playing computer games.
Karim Benzema is easily in the best 2-3 forwards of his generation (outside of Messi and CR7).

Suarez, Lewandoeski & Aguero comfortably ahead of him IMO.
Are they comfortably ahead though? You don't go starting at Madrid for 10 + seasons being a chump.

Could make the same argument about starting for Liverpool/Barca, Dortmund/Bayern and Man City for a decade tbf.
And yeah Lewandowski is comfortably ahead.

Zlatan also
Zlatan is overrated IMO.
Had one or two outstanding seasons prior to joining PSG. Can't knock his longevity but I would take a heap of other forwards before him.

I'd have Suarez, Lewis, Kane, Salah and Aguero above him.
