The best goal scorer ever in my opinion. Yes he's part of a fantastic team which is playing better than ever this season but he also links a lot of their forward play and unlike most other modern players he doesn't need to try to con referees. He just lets his talent do the talking. Never thought Muller's record would be broken. |

Best player ever, I would still rather have Ronaldo back though. |

I know a lot of reds say that. I just can't stand the diving and the petulance..great players don't need to do it. Maybe I'm old fashioned! |

Am I alone in finding Barcelona's possession-based game boring to watch?
That's not to take anything away from his scoring record which, yes, is incredible. Especially as the guy is a lot more than an out-and-out poacher like Muller was. _________________ http://www.flickr.com/photos/derby1884/sets/ |

Neither Messi or Ronaldo would get a start at Auchinleck. We don't do fancy Dans...... |

Somewhere in the middle of these two extremes would be my preference! _________________ http://www.flickr.com/photos/derby1884/sets/ |

Totally agree Derby, although I'm not a big fan of watching football on TV at all really, so give me a LIVE game any day _________________ www.programmehut.com - The Internet Dealers

Wimbledon were fairly entertaining to watch I'll have you know!
Messi another double last night despite having a distinctly average game. _________________ https://www.flickr.com/photos/footballprogrammes/albums |
