You are just been foolish here and I am not sorry to say this. Benfica best team in Portuguese league after Porto( it is debatable though), Porto and benfica are just like Bayern Munich and Dortmund. You keep chipping in team achievement into this discourse just to sound intelligent but you are not. Christensen played in ucl for Borusia Mochenglabach. Here is him against mighty Barcelona;

Hensben, am done with this discussion. Christensen is a good young player. I like him and I wish him the best in his career. But comparing him and lindelof is just criminal. It doesn't matter if Benfica is a big club or or and mochenglabach is not. Lindelof was part of the defence that won 3 consecutive tittles in Benfica.
I don't like trading insults and av insulted you enough. When he's achieved what Lindelof z been able to achieve in his career, then come let's talk. Until then, Am done.

To be fair, winning Portuguese league is not really an achievement.

It's on the same level as Belgian league or Ukranian league and is even ranked lower than the Russian league by Uefa coefficient.

It doesn't really make sense to be comparing a player in Bundesliga to a player on Portugal and claiming the Portuguese player is better cos he won the league there - that's like comparing someone who plays in midtable EPL to someone who plays in League 1 and saying the League 1 player is better cos he won that league.

I'm not getting involved in comparing both players though, just pointing out a flaw in the metric of comparison.

Portuguese league until 2 years ago only had like 15 teams sef.

That was part of the reason why I agreed to go down to individual achievements..

ALL sentiments aside, who do u think is the better player?

Honestly, I think Christensen. He got race reviews against spurs on his debut and that was a baptism of fire. Based on the preseason comments on this thread, Lindelof isn't trusted by your fellow fans, or Jose for that matter.

Maybe the gulf in quality between EPL and Bundesliga is not as vast as the gulf between EPL and Portuguese league.

What is it with this new fascination with comparing players of both clubs. People are now comparing bench players and insulting themselves on top. Christensen and Lindelof? How many full matches of both have you guys seen to now litter this place with all these "o gawd" posts?

The thing don tire me. Before matches, on match days, during matches, and even after matches, all I keep reading is various comparisons. It's not like the season had gone deep like say the first half of the season is gone. Just with 2 matches and people are already comparing players whose season performances are yet to be ascertained.

This is based on the match Christiana z played for CFC this season in the EPL. I don't think that is fair judging by the fans view of a player when he is yet to play a competitive game in the league. Preseason is what it is.. Preseason. Afterall if we are to judge Bakayoko based on Ibime's view, he will never play for any top team in the league again.
But it's all good. We will revisit this issue again at the end of the season.

What is it with you and mumu arguments na? Just be filling up our pages with rubbish. You have been beaten blue black accept it. You are showing us a champions league match... one freaking match in which you think Christina played well but UEFA is telling us that Lindelof made breakthrough champions league team of the season. Every season more than a thousand teams across Europe and around the world select a player of the year but does that make a Liepzig player of the year who won nothing better than a Barcelona players of the year with just a cop del rey trophy or an Arsenal player of the year with just an FA cup? Nobody gave a shit about our player of the year when we won nothing because WE WON NOTHING! When it comes to lopsided arguments its okay to call Lindelof who was best defender in a title winning club and season be it in Portugal a flop while some unknown entity who dazzled in a team who won jack is better because he played in Germany where Bayern Munich has been raping everybody since i was born. What did Mochenglabach win with Christina? How many tournament successes did he lead them to? Please remove your rose tinted glass so you can see clearly.

Really? A ligue 1 player that won the league isn't better than a player player from Westbrom because he plays in the French league you dont watch and don't care about? So Rondon, Gabiadinni, Llorente are better than Mbappe because the English league has more UEFA coefficient than Ligue 1 even though Monaco are consistent challengers in the champions league with a rich European history while your mid-table English clubs are not even good enough for Europa with their kick and follow football.

What do you mean by trusted? If Cahill was not on suspension and Luiz had to move to midfield, you think Chris will smell the team sheet?

Still finding it hard to believe this is Silva. This new haircut makes it look like Pep just signed Iniesta. smiley

Rooney slotting in well and comfortably in Everton. They have many young players who are willing to press for the ball so his workload is reduced.
