[ELNINO 9]

http://www.redcafe.net/f7/gerrard-be...zidane-241265/ they are discussing gerrards position as best player in the world. some mancs can name ten, yes ten,10, better players than steven gerrard. this list included ineista and wait for it, giggs,scholes and rooney.....flmao

[ELNINO 9]

Players better than gerrard (who is undeniably a good player):

Without Question:
1. Ronaldo
2. Messi
3. Kaka

In his position:
4. Xavi
5. Scholes

Similar Position:
6. Giggs

In terms of pure ability, players that are currently amongst the very best:
7. Ribery
8. Wayne Rooney (in my opinion a top 5 without question)
9. Torres

'Ronaldo without question'

Sorry I'm not having that. Never in a million years in fact.

Haha, they're really obsessed with us, no?

[Darth Marty]

Im surprised anyone, mancs included, still rate Rooney that highly. In my opinion hes turned into a pretty average player.

Nothing wrong with your post though, I totally agree.

listening to a manc defending him its like us defending kuyt......ie all the work he does off the ball etc.

still think he is a lot better than average but very inconsistent

[wiw]

lol, Torres at number 9 says it all

Xavi, Scholes and Giggs don't play anything like his position or role you stupid ****ing mancs

Messi and Gerrard are head and shoulders above everyone imo

Only Rooney in England can challenge Gerrard for the best SS or whatever position you want to call it, and Gerrard is better

the guy who posted that on redcafe, is clearly dellusional. Ok so scholes is quite clearly a better attacking midfielder/forward than gerrard.. thats why he scored all those goals this year

Giggs obviously better than gerrard, yet cant get ahead of Park Ji Sung at the moment.. Park for world player of the year then?

Wayne 'prolific' Rooney above Torres, okay

This guy must definitely just play Fifa all day, and because the game says so... it must be true

[Duncan Jenkins]

rooneys name does not deserve to be mentioned alongside gerrard, xavi, torres, messi etc. he's a good player but then so is peter crouch and he doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same breath either.

duncan

Yeah, they must be. Every other time we go looking on their board we find something about ourselves.

A little sad all round really.

[Joe King]

What a stupid thread. To claim Essien is a better player considering he barely scores five goals in a season is hilarious to read, amongst the other tripe on there like Ibrahimovic, Scholes, Giggs and Ferdinand FFS are better players than Gerrard. One poster claimed Fabregas dominates a midfield whilst Gerrard doesn't

Heh, true. I can honestly say that I never go there though.
