All of Fordy's posts in this thread have had me literally laughing out loud. The Mrs wanted to know what I was giggling about.

His technique is amongst the best in the world, but he's Dutch so what do you expect? I think if his career wasn't so hampered with injuries that people would say his name in the same breath as Torres and Rooney.

Christiano Ronaldo is one of the best players to ever touch a ball, enough Messi wanking give some credit to the other freak in Spain. So if their coach said what Wenger said I'd have a hard time arguing against him, cause when your comparing players as good as Messi or Ronaldo, its almost stupid to attempt to compare them.

Same reason Real Madrid team of Zidane, Figo, Beckham, R.Carlos, Raul, Ronaldo couldn't win the league on many occasions despite having the best players without a doubt.. and the same reason all the great holland teams has never won a world cup.. It isn't always fair, sometimes luck, sometimes the other team is better than u.. sometimes the mix is not right.. So I still think we have the best manager.. Some of the best players in the world.. We just need to mix it up a bit..

Like I said in the other thread. How bad have we missed him all season? It is like night and day between him and Bendtner.

World's better strikers yes. You can't go comparing RvP to Ronaldo unless they move into the same position.

To us he's like our Rooney or Drogba. Bendtner are the equivalent (not literally, in pecking order) of say, Anelka and Berbatov. I'm not going to say who's better or will be better. If VP got injured and played again in February, March? We would have had the trophy in the bag. Not saying if he hadn't got injured anyway. We would have been 20 points clear and scored 120 goals! (I hope)

Shame we haven't seen him much this season. F**k our injuries.

I thought Real Madrid didn't win anything because they had the stars but lacked any sort of organisation or tactics? :think:

That free kick was a rip! Look at that curve top corner, after seeing that I'm going to work on some free kicks this weekend. :hail: :hail: :hail:

Wenger is a great manager.. Whether we like him or not is another thing.. He is the 2nd best manager in england ever maybe.. But certainly since the premier league started at least.. He has mistakes.. and we can sit behind our screens everyday slagging him and try to make him the worst manager in the world.. and am sure it would look convincing..
