Pedro is also better than Ronaldo.

His trophy count and the roles he played in them speaks volumes.

Afara logic.

AirborneLacer:


I concur with the view that Fonte should be up there with Terry.

Cahill's form hasn't been too impeccable this term, it really got that bad that Zouma had to be called up to action at some point.

Kane would get my nod ahead of Aguero. The latter's form has been as fickle as hell, whilst the former has just been unstoppable.

Ivanovic is another name whose place is up for debate. All season he's been this attacking full-back who is often caught off guard.

I would have gone for Clyne but dude was injured for the most period of the season. Bellerin would have made my list if he had started the season with Arsenal.

Bundesligabest:
Boatengis a lucky recipient of the works of Kroos, Schweini, Muller and co. He ain't play no pivotal fücking role like say Cannavaro in 2006.

Na so Pique was lauded the best defender back in 2009-2011, motherfücker a lucky recipient of the work of Xavi, Iniesta and Mes

IBoatengbetter than Terry? Spits on ground.

the truth is..if a player haven't tasted EPL...he'll never realize that EPL isn't as easy as any other league....

Bimffo:


You still don't get.. The EPL now has the financial power to keep their players.. The likes of Stoke and Sunderland can buy Pedro, Montoya, Busquet Etc without any stress now.. The EPL will stop been a hunting ground for Spain big clubs as from next season.. Unless we wanna sell..

Did Ronaldo force his way out?

A40:

Is it the Schweinsteiger that is hardly fit or Kroos that nearly handed the Final over to Argentina?

The greatest striker in your overhyped league history tagged Boa-TANK as the man of the match. Go and watch how the TANK destroyed and delivered a virtuoso performance on the biggest stage of all. A stage your racist Terry could never sniff

A40:


Lol so Terry is Ronaldo and Boa-TANK Pedro? I laugh in Tambuwal. You better stop taking Tramadol

Nihilist:
Lukaku looks like he has regressed badly...

homesteady:

Yes, but he did not start forcing his way until madrid came calling!

AirborneLacer:


A bullet well dodged!

One could easily forgive Lukaku for his fatigue. By the time he turns 22 in May, he could quite conceivably have played 280 senior matches, a total that already stands at 251. This is a striker who, at the age of 16, started 30 games for Anderlecht. In 2010/11, Lukaku started 52 matches for club and country; he didn't turn 18 until the end of that season. You can understand Anderlecht wanting to get the most out of their striker (who was the top scorer in the Belgian League), but that's crazy.

Lukaku's workload has not slowed in recent seasons. In 2012/13 he played 43 games, and then another 44 for Belgium and Everton last season. A reminder that at that stage he was still aged just 20. When most were in need of recuperation, Lukaku travelled to the World Cup in Brazil. He suffered a badly sprained ankle in a warm-up match against Tunisia but still played in all four of Belgium's matches. He looked jaded, eventually replaced in the side by Liverpool's Divock Origi.

To have played 211 senior matches before turning 21 is almost unprecedented in the modern game. Wayne Rooney, the obvious name who springs to mind, boasted 175, whilst Lionel Messi played a similar 173, including matches for Barcelona's B and C team. With eight playing months until Sterling reaches that age, his current total is 121. If Lukaku isn't close to breaking point, it would be a surprise.

It is a problem to which Roberto Martinez has previously referred. "When you have players coming back from the World Cup you have to decide if you want the players straight away or do you give them a bit of time to refresh and be ready to play for 10 months?," Everton's manager said in August. "Romelu might not start the season. There is a degree of risk if you put them into a situation so early." Martinez's response was to start Lukaku in every league game until November 1. He missed 37 minutes of PL football before October 26. Decision made.

Strangely, when asked about Lukaku's possible fatigue in October after his striker appeared to be struggling, Martinez's August concerns had vanished: "He's not fatigued, he's not overworked. He has been putting himself up for selection when we knew he wasn't 100 per cent with the toe injury. Sometimes you feel he hasn't got the same power, the same intensity as last season, but you're talking about very small margins."

So, apart from previously admitting playing Lukaku was "a risk", starting the striker despite injury and conceding some of his "power and intensity" has been lost, all is well.

The reality is that Martinez is unlikely to concede that Lukaku is fatigued, for it would push his own decision-making into the spotlight

Tval:

You expect us[black skin fans] to be pained with this assertion?

AirborneLacer:


No one is drawing up comparisons here, I'm only using your shallow claim against you.

Nihilist:


Maybe...though I read this somewhere suggesting that Lukaku might just be a victim of burnout. Maybe if we'd kept him and managed his fitness more?

A40:

But he is a racist naa! He was even disgraced out of the National team for this. Whether e pain una or not wetin be my concern?

homesteady:


How much do you think is Messi release clause?

Nobody fucking cares, we know for Bale, Modric, Ronaldo and Suarez

Bimffo:


Lie! He didn't force any way Out.. ManU saw the money and sold him.. It was a lucrative business for a player that has won everything in England..

homesteady:


Was it not Ferguson that said he won't sell a virus to real madrid?
Man u did not want to sell him, but he wanted to go! I remember Blatter calling it slavery!

You are using it wrong. Pedro a passenger and sometimes benchwarmer vs Boateng a starter and key member of the squad

and we have the way good players in laliga and other leagues became rags when they moved to EPL....

Bimffo:


When A.Cole was at his prime, he was better than both..

Bimffo:


I would have loved to see a ManU fan settle this but those guys are busy dealing with Everton..

A40:

Pique was 21 and Jerome 22 when they were in your league. Its an age where defenders aren't in their prime. If Kompany, Garri Cahill and Fonte can dominate your league then your league is sweet

Clubs don't just sell their best players willingly, they force their way out!
that's what will happen to Hazard!
