You just basically said only stupid sky pundits ever regarded Henry better, yet this is implying you know when Ronaldo was at Madrid Henry was better.Fine Shagger wrote:If you want to judge Ronaldo at his best ability Chris why use Real Madrid? His best season was at Barcelona, after that Inter.
By the time he had moved to Real Madrid he was already affected by injuries.

I would've said Cristiano had a better Premiership career if I meant to say he had a better Premiership career.
Not even close. Saying someone is the best to have played in the league does not mean ability and I don't think anyone would assume you meant ability by making that statement.
Bullshit, if Messi played 1 game in the Finland league and I said he's the best player to have played there my statement would be 100% correct.
There really is no point discussing anything with you.
You made your statement in reference to Henry and Cristiano in the PL so your statement FAILED in its attempt to imply you meant ability.

I wouldn't disagree with that. I think maybe you misundersood - I think Henry has better longevity but at their respective peaks there is no doubt in my mind Ronaldo was better.
@ Arise - I can't say that I don't agree with your agreement to disagree agree. You have problems with basic terminology.

Re: Best player of all time
As for comparing #9 and #14 it is not open and shut saying that #9 is better than #14. I think they are the best strikers of this generation, but I do not think #9 is better as everyone else does.

Re: Best player of all time
I think early career Ronaldo was better but mid to late career Henry was better.
If you had one of these guys up top at their best the opposition defence was fucked and it doesn't matter which.

Got tired of typing the name Cristiano Ronaldo since I refuse to call him just Ronaldo since there is only one Ronaldo and he is #9.

That is clear proof Ronaldo is better than Henry, if you disagree you should be anally molested.

Agreed, but I think opinionated would be a better word. See even that is being argued.

Re: Best player of all time
lol cristiano ronaldo not being better then henry was bad enough
but henry better then the phenomenon? what a joke this has become, ronaldo with 2 knee reconstructions was still a better player then henry could ever dreamt to be lol. every facet at football, every single thing from large to small detail, ronaldo was higher then henry, henry is the type of player that would beg for ronaldos shirt after a match, that is the gulf between these 2.
1 player can rightfully claim to be the greatest striker in history while the other can claim to being a top striker in his own time. i think i dont need to point out which is which

ronaldo at his peak vs henry? u cannot even compare such things. ronaldos peak abilities is superior than anyone that has ever played football at any level till messi came along and thats even with severe medical compilications and injuries. such a ridicilous comparison and any person that is try to compare those 2 just obviously a henry fan boy that has his french doodle right up his bottom
its just to funny, a 3 time best player in the world that would of doubled that number and should of been a dual world cup winner being compare to henry hehehehehehe
i wonder what is next? wilshere better then zidane? bentner better then batistuta

Re: Best player of all time
also shagger and arise
what is this about longetivity? henry did not have any major
long term injury till his last year in arsenal, he did not miss 2
seasons of football with 2 serious injuries after one another like
ronaldo and also does not suffer from consistant epilepsy either. so
from what im understand, ytou are saying that is ronaldos fault he had
all these problems and henry is better at not getting injured like this
and is a better player overall because of this? lol
longetivity such a pitance of a word
paolo
maldini play more games more minutes and in general longer than any
other defender in italy in his time...but he was never a better player
then baresi or nesta or even cannavaro, never.same apply to many player.
ehehehe even giggs can play for another 10 years, he can play for as
long as he wants but he was never and will never be better then figo and
this not mean they are bad player but ytou are comparing something to
the uncomparable. is just imposisible

Re: Best player of all time
It's clear your opinion is pro-Ronaldo so I'm not going to waste my time discussing the topic. I've debated this before so if you want to know my stance feel free to search the old EA forums where I debated it at length.
