Just remember to keep things civil.

Crespo Vs. Tevez

crespo for sure

zola vs figo

matt · Post by **matt** » 23 Jun 2005, 17:06

zola.

he is/was a fanastic player who always played with a smile on his face and with such flair and skill. arguably the premiership's best foreign player ever. no dount abramovich would hav payed a fortune to have him in the current chelski squad. my favourite goal of his was when sum1 took a short corner and he ran in at the near post and flicked it in (if u've seen it u will know which one i mean).

luis figo is still a terrific player, but zola made more of an impact on me than he did.

kaka vs totti

Kaka - he will be one of the greatest in another 1 or 2 years - just watch the pass in the Champions league final that set up Milan's third (Crespo's second) goal - it was a stroke of genius - he is also incredibly skilful attacking playmaker playing in a league where defenses are hard to break down but he still mansges it.
Totti is also a very good player but I just think Kaka edges it.

Ronaldo vs. Adriano

Ronaldo. He is still the most feared striker in the world. He only has a couple more years, though. After the next World Cup, Adriano will most likely be the one leading the Brazilian attack.

Freddy Adu or Fred (the Brazilian striker)

adriano by a mile.

he is the complete striker, arguably the best there is. apparently inter want £90 million for him and i think that wd be getting him cheap. he has got it all - pace, strength, incredible shooting, terrific dribbling, good in the air, creative.... ronaldo is still a great player and 3 years ago he would hav won this one but adriano is soooo good now.

govou or essien?

Ronaldinho10 · Post by **Ronaldinho10** » 23 Jun 2005, 20:48

Adriano has everything apart from one thing that Ronaldo has - Adriano can only use his left foot - Ronaldo scores with both - this is the only difference I can see as they are both breathtaking players

Essien, he's a pure right midfield. Flair, pace, control he got it all.

Gilardino vs Forlan

matt · Post by **matt** » 24 Jun 2005, 17:24

gilardinho.

italy's wayne rooney has had a great season and has the potential to do better than del piero, inzaghi and vieiri ever did. considering the quality of the defences he has played against his goal tally is outstanding. forlan has also done well but i think gilardinho's age also givs him the edge.

eto'o vs adriano

Ronaldo. He is still the most feared striker in the world.

You have to be kinding me. Have you ever seen Thierry Henry play. he is the best striker in the world it is no comparison.

I'd have to agree with that statement...he can shoot, dribble, pass, and make excellent runs...the main things that strikers do

adriano is definitely the most complete attacker in the world
and he can jump MUCH higher than henry, MMMUUUCCCHHH stronger, much more powerful....
well, not maybe faster, but better with ball skills...

interesting fact is that adriano can jump higher than alan iverson

adriano can jump over 50 cm from standing normaly....

shevchenko vs henry ?

f.C_Valencia · Post by **f.C_Valencia** » 24 Jun 2005, 21:31

henry, even though shevchenko is real good, i think herny is better in ball control and experience wise.

zidane vs raul

Yea but Henry can finish, when was the last time Adriano scored 40 goals in a seaosn?

cfrealmadrid · Post by **cfrealmadrid** » 25 Jun 2005, 02:00

when was the last time adriano played in the premiership? it's a different league, so you can't compare them accurately
