Can't authoritatively say, but i'd pick "Little" Bergkamp, he scores freekicks too.

Is it not a shame that Van Rapist that was once compared to Torres is now being compared to Bendtner

Van persie is better than all strikers in the budesliga combined
Re: Fernando Torres Vs Robin Van Persie: Who's Better by dayokanu(m): 11:58pm On Oct 17, 2009
The bundesliga currently have a striker with 10 world cup goals, another one broke a 50yr Serie A scoring record. Tell us what Van Rapist has achieved in his career worth mentioning
Re: Fernando Torres Vs Robin Van Persie: Who's Better by ritchboy(m): 12:10am On Oct 18, 2009
Hahaha
as usual, dayokanu is too daft to engage in a sensible debate so he tries to put age old achievements on the table.
Klose and toni, like the club & the league where they play, are a spent force.
the fact that they're the best names u could come up with speaks volumes of ur club/league.
Re: Fernando Torres Vs Robin Van Persie: Who's Better by dayokanu(m): 12:55am On Oct 18, 2009
Instead of rhetorics tell us one striker who has a better goal scoring pedigree and hope you won't come up with Bundesliga failures like SantaCruz and Berbatov
Re: Fernando Torres Vs Robin Van Persie: Who's Better by ritchboy(m): 8:46am On Oct 18, 2009
Ok, what exactly has torres achieved in his career "worth mentioning"? Is it safe to say klose & toni are better than torres?
Jesus is weeping for you grin

Half of the goals were scored in one game versus Saudi Arabia 2 world cups ago. tongue
Re: Fernando Torres Vs Robin Van Persie: Who's Better by dayokanu(m): 4:32pm On Oct 18, 2009
What goalscoring feat has Torres achieved in his career? Has he ever been top scorer in any league outside EPL or in any top competition

Tell me how many strikers in the current EPL who has ever been top scorer in a major competition. Be it World cup or Euro cup

Re: Fernando Torres Vs Robin Van Persie: Who's Better by dayokanu(m): 5:03pm On Oct 18, 2009
Its just a simply question. and they should come up with answers or can they explain why EPL players are duds at major tournaments.

Since I was born I have never seen a player from EPL win the player of any tournament.
Re: Fernando Torres Vs Robin Van Persie: Who's Better by chic2pimp(m): 5:07pm On Oct 18, 2009

Note the key word

Proove anything otherwise and a Nobel prize awaits you.

Watch out for three lions. Come next year's world cup they'll be a force to be reckoned it.

Their Back four is currently the best in international football and with hagreaves(if fit) protecting the back four,teams would find it difficult to score against them.
Re: Fernando Torres Vs Robin Van Persie: Who's Better by ritchboy(m): 6:30pm On Oct 18, 2009
So Toni & Klose are better strikers than Torres?
Children, the moral of the story is dayokanu is a nutcase whom u should never debate anything with. grin

Are you mocking them? Did you watch the match against Ukraine? is Ferdinand part of this back 4? Glen Johnson too?

@ritchboy, Tell us the achievements of Torres over Kloni in football that makes him better.
Show us Torres' achievement

Show me a country with a better back 4. We all know Ferdinand is going through a rough patch.
Re: Fernando Torres Vs Robin Van Persie: Who's Better by dayokanu(m): 7:08pm On Oct 18, 2009
How good was Brazilian back 4 of when they won in 1994 and 2002.

How good was the defence of Zacardo, Materrazi, Canavaro and Zambrotta. 2 or those 4 are wacked.

How good defensively is the defence of Sergio Ramos, Puyol, Marchena to win the Euro? Its the ability to play together and understand one another.

Germany with Friedrich, Metzelder and Mertersacker who aint top 8 CB pair have played a final and 3rd place in the last 2 tournament yet Bosingwa, Pepe, Carvalho fail

Back 4 is about ability to play together.

Brazil's back four in 1994 was very good. Marcio santos & Especially Aldair were class. BTW,you still shown me a country with a better back 4.

C'mon next year if both Terry & Ferdie are @ the top of their game few strikers will get any change from them which I belive might just be key.
Re: Fernando Torres Vs Robin Van Persie: Who's Better by dayokanu(m): 7:32pm On Oct 18, 2009
^^ Very few strikers like those from Ukraine?
Re: Fernando Torres Vs Robin Van Persie: Who's Better by chic2pimp(m): 7:45pm On Oct 18, 2009
^^^^ I think you are doing english players an injustice. Overhyping them(as the press often does) is one thing however underrating them is just as bad.
Re: Fernando Torres Vs Robin Van Persie: Who's Better by dayokanu(m): 7:47pm On Oct 18, 2009
Underrating a group who have not played a semi finals of international tourney in 12 years not to talk of finals??

Even a goat knows England have the best set of defenders in the world for the past 6 years.
However, they have no good goalie to compliment the talents they have in the defence and when the goalie is mediocre, defenders don't believe in themselves.  England's problem in tournaments is not because the defenders are shit . . . .It is because they have not been able to produce a world class goalie since Gordon Banks in the 70s.
