Debroslink:


Na you no try at all. You dropped a very controversial picture and hid in the shadows to observe debate, instead of joining us.

IKON360:

Yes, it will but it doesn't diminish the fact that a great player is a great player.
Casemiro is believed to be one of the best ball winning DMs in the world but if you compare his ball winning ability with that of Kante, you find out that Kante in form is far far better than him.

Kilishihunter:

TheHulk616:

MasonKendall:
O'Man chill, this thing na game. Even Werey know say ororo no dey dribble again, so De Jong's dribbling gat to be higher than his.

Ronaldo is actually 13th all through. Not surprising he's top in Juve since most of them there aren't that good with take-ons. The best competition he should have is Dybala and Chiesa. The former is injury-ravaged while the second is above him even though I don't know whether to call him a forward or not include him since he's still a loanee.

Nonetheless, he's no better dribbler than Jong. He's really not that bad that I think he is sha

According to FBRef.com, Cristiano Ronaldo has the most dribbles completed of any Juventus player so far in the 2020-2021 Serie A season. And he is ninth in the league overall.Ronaldo is the most effective dribbler in Serie A among forwards when combining frequency and efficiency
That’s impressive in and of itself, but the efficiency of his dribbling is actually even more impressive. Ronaldo is successful on just over 65 percent of his dribbles completed. Among all 20 players with at least 40 dribbles completed, Ronaldo ranks third behind only transfer target Rodrigo De Paul and heart-breaker Ruslan Malinovsky.
But remember, Ronaldo is a forward. Why do I point this out? Because it is more difficult for forwards to win a higher percentage of their dribbles than a midfield. That’s for two reasons. Firstly, forwards are more likely to go up against defenders in a one-on-one, and defenders are better at one-on-one defending than midfielders. Secondly, forwards attempt more dribbles in the final third than midfielders, which means they have to navigate tighter spaces or even beat multiple defenders at once.
So among forwards, Ronaldo is literally in a class of his own in Serie A with 52 dribbles completed and a 65.3 percent success rate.
Ronaldo is also sixth in Serie A in total progressive dribbles, which is ridiculous. It’s ridiculous because Ronaldo is a forward in a two-striker system and is Serie A’s leading goal-scorer with 25 goals. Yet he is still one of the elite ball carriers. Lorenzo Insigne and Junior Messias are the only forwards with more progressive dribbles than Ronaldo. Combined, they have 25 goals. He is 10th in carries into the final third. Again, only wide players Insigne and Messias are better.

MasonKendall:
You said it all. Midfielders are better dribblers.

OfficialDJ:

Firstbornwds is a notorious scammer and is on the run..
The albino kleptomanic scammed a female nairalander of a huge sum of money, and is on the run...
We've been to his family's house, and we've been told he's absconded....
He is a dangerous and notorious scammer and a potential rapist too...

Do not have any dealings with this person under any circumstance, in or outside this forum....
Be warned...
He'd be accosted soon!!!

FirstbornWds:


So, why is Adama Traore, Messi and Neymar topping the charts?

MasonKendall:
They are wide midfielders bro

GrammarNazi1:

No one is saying they aren't great.

They are, perhaps, over hyped.

pu7pl3:


Has to be another Modric you're referring to

patrickmuf:
We are not comparing teams but players...I am dead sure before the COPA win, you already believed Messi was the greatest even though Pele and Maradona have the their respective world cup medals in their cabinet...I do not rate players based on trophies but based on their individual abilities and that's why I don't agree when you attempt to talk down on Scholes, Gerard and Lampard just cos they don't play football in a certain way...

IKON360:

The same Modric that Fede Valverde has been outshining for the past two seasons?
Modric in his prime wasn't better than Gerrard or Scholes

Bring me any other serie a player with better dribble success rate in the final third... I'll wait

MasonKendall:

pu7pl3:


I never said midfielders were better dribblers I just implied that they have it more easy than Forwards

Read my post again

IKON360:

I don't think you are right, Scholes, Gerrard and Lampard weren't overhyped

IKON360:

This is the point of view I wanted debroslink to look at it from. It's not always about trophies, if not Dani Alves would be the greatest footballer this century. But he isn't

pu7pl3:


Show me their Balon d'Or...add to the fact they were in their so called "prime" when mere mortal men like Ronaldinho and Kaka were the best players and not god's like Ronaldo and Messi, both of whom Modric beat

pu7pl3:


did you calculate their success rates?

GrammarNazi1:

He knows exactly your point but I, too, disagree with you.

It is not always about trophies, yet it is about your contribution to trophy wins.

Xavi and Iniesta contributed hugely to lots of club and international trophies. How then is it not about trophies and how the players contributed to them?

Kindly mention the lots of trophies that Scholes, Gerrard, and Lampard contributed hugely to.
