I was replying to someone else who said his stats are going downhill. Even Ronald and messi go missing in big games. Look at r onaldo in the champions league final last season he was shit. He's probably overrated in his own mind but he was and is still a class playerQuote:

Did he even show up to the Euros just gone??
He's shite.
He will score about 8 to 10 up to Crimbo, then f*** all after that.
He will disappear without trace once it starts (ya, I know it's pi$$ing down now:hehe:) raining.
No it wasn't a response to Flint you replied to my post picking you up on your ludicrous claims on the strength of the defending of teams such as Watford and Sunderland ffs. :hehe:Quote:

Do your own research I gave up counting once it was proved you were telling porkies in your stats. Poor form.

I was actually dead on, he scored in the next game - so he's got 8 from 37 (or 38 even if they went through to the semi). :thumbup:Quote:

The guy has more or less averaged a 1 in 2 goals to games ratio everywhere he's been his Sweden record is pretty amazing considering the sides they've hadQuote:

I don't think they really care if he still has it not...but he definitely has. He'll score over 15 goals in the league this year imo
Troy Deeney got 15 goals last season.Quote:

You said he only scored 2 in major tournaments and I gave up counting after 4 so like I said do your own research and at least do it properly.Quote:

I'm not saying its definitely true, but look how massive United are globally. They're a top 3 club in the worlds most popular sport.
EDIT: I guess it just means £76 mil has been spent on the shirts, but imagine how much sponsorship money United must've received.

I'd say it's pretty likely that the story is bullshit.
So you're not gonna bother commenting on his poor return in Champions League knockout games then?Quote:

No. No point conversing with a liar.Quote:

CL Knockout Goals - Ronaldo 40 goals, Messi 37 goals, Raul 20 goals, Shevchenko 18 goals, even Inzaghi with 16 goals puts Ibrahellofamiss to shame.
1 Cristiano Ronaldo Portugal 93 127 0.73 2003– Manchester United, Real Madrid
2 Lionel Messi Argentina 83 106 0.78 2005– Barcelona
3 Raúl Spain 71 142 0.5 1995–2011 Real Madrid, Schalke 04
4 Ruud van Nistelrooy Netherlands 56 73 0.77 1998–2009 PSV Eindhoven, Manchester United, Real Madrid
5 Thierry Henry France 50 112 0.45 1997–2010 Monaco, Arsenal, Barcelona
6 Alfredo Di Stéfano Argentina 49 58 0.84 1955–64 Real Madrid
7 Andriy Shevchenko Ukraine 48 100 0.48 1994–2012 Dynamo Kyiv, Milan, Chelsea
8 Zlatan Ibrahimović Sweden 48 119 0.4 2001– Ajax, Juventus, Internazionale, Barcelona, Milan, Paris Saint-Germain
9 Eusébio Portugal 46 65 0.71 1961–74 Benfica
10 Karim Benzema France 46 80 0.58 2006– Lyon, Real Madrid
11 Filippo Inzaghi Italy 46 81 0.57 1997–2012 Juventus, Milan
Not a bad list to be part of. Knockout stages or not..
Only player to score with 6 different clubs as well.
With respect after my research put your "Zlatan has never experienced organised defences such as West Brom or Sunderland" claim to complete and utter shame im surprised you had the audacity to show back up on this thread.Quote:
