2loadedguy:

How else do you want to measure an attacking trio other than the stats, particularly one that's not only measuring the number of goals scored but also the number of assists? Its like putting in so much efforts without any result at work, will your manager rate u well? The answer is no. There's a reason stats is used to measure players and goals are used to define a winning team, it's because there's meant be a result at the end of the day. To me nothing beats the Arsenal trio of Henry,bergkamp and pires and the stats are there for all to see.
Perhaps, your sentiment for always wanting to have Ronaldo in your list is what's causing your delusion but please be objective for once.
When you tell them the truth they say you are deluded or sentimental. I don't think you ever watched Cr7, Rooney and Tevez play.

I'm a Chelsea fan through and through but I must give it to the Man united trio of 2007/2008.
Ronaldo-Tevez-Rooney, frightening!!
For One of them to claim the World football gong shows how good they were.

Don't mind Man Utd fans with the undeserved hype of Scholes. This is a player that spent 20 seasons at Man Utd and was never voted as Man Utd player of the year not to talk of EPL/PFA Player of the year, not even once. They're comparing with Gerrard and Lampard that won the award numerous times. In terms of goals scored, assists made and other meaningful stats, those two dwarfed him. He couldn't even make the cut at the National team ahead of those two, but Man U want us to believe he's the best thing since sliced bread.

Besides op's list
The combo of
Ronaldo, Rooney and Tevez for Manchester United was devastating

The three players made a combined 140 appearances in all competitions for Manchester United in 2007-08, contributing 79 goals and 29 assists.

Can you now compare this to the Arsenal trio?

If them start counter attack with long pass from Scholes, it's always certain it's going to be a goal... They were too fast and fluid to contain...

StubbornGENIUS:
@thegiftedone,how can you forget one of the deadliest trio of the EPL era:suarez,sturridge And Sterling. Even the current liverpool squad can't match their feat!
You have no point. How many goals and assists combined did those trio have compared with Sallah, Mane and Firmino. What were their achievements trophy-wise? You are comparing with this current trio that took Liverpool to the final of the Champions League back-to-back and won the second one, while narrowly losing out the league with a staggering 97 points and now this season they're running away with the league. So what are you saying. Suarez is the only person in that trio I can put ahead of the current ones. You can't compare prime Sterling now at Man City with these guys not to talk of Sterling then that was still growing up. Is it Sturridge you wanna compare with these ones. Can't you see how they phase him out of the current team into oblivion.
