i think he's fucking class - best player in the world, anyone?
we were talking about this in the pub last night, if he keeps up his current form for a sustained period over a few seasons... would he have to go down as one of the genuinely best ever?

Arrogant so and so but a bloody great player.
His crappy over use of his step over winds me up though.

He's a player you love to hate but would definately love him playing for you. Full of tricks, and too many of them but still class.

If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious shit...

Oh and why did he need to dive last night? Neimi didn't touch him.

If that was a Swindon player I would have been convinced it was a pen.
It was a weird one, I don't think it was simulation - he had to try and get out Niemis way, but nor do I think it was a foul?
Should just have been a GK but of course Styles has to get his name in the papers.

Good player yes. Not the best in the world though. Look at the champions league semi last season - kaka won the game for milan, ronaldo went missing. Kaka's still the best for me

Franck Ribery - 100% effort every game, runs the game most of the time, completely different class to the majority of players. And a stark contrast to most French players.
And not a diving, arrogant ponce like Ronaldo

We've been having this conversation in our office for some time, well, it's work innit!
It's difficult to say who's the best in the world, because while Kaka single handedly won them the semi final against United last season, over the course of the whole season Ronaldo won United the league. Consider that everyone thought he couldn't (and wouldn't) play for united after 'Rooneygate' at the world cup, and to then dominate a season like that... that's pretty special. But, and it's a big but, Ronaldo hasn't done it in Europe. Yet.
I'd say Kaka deserved it, but Ron deserved all the prem player of the year titles he got. If and when he does it in europe, then consider him for the world player of the year.

alongside kaka and fabregas i'd say he's no doubt one of the best players in the world. his goalscoring record for a winger in modern football is incredible.
don't think he dived last night either...
