Shearer or Larsson?

by Guest Tue Nov 01, 2011 8:30 am

Who was better?

Larsson was the better player for me

Brought Celtic to a European final. He scored in four World Cups, came on as a substitute for Barcelona and won man of the match in a Champions League Final. He was the highest scorer in Europe for a player at a British club for a while. After winning Champions League with Barcelona, went to Manchester United at thirty six years old and had Fergie begging him to stay.

Don't get me wrong, Shearer is the Premier League's record goalscorer, but I think Larsson was better.

What's your opinion?

Shearer, was gutted we didn't get him. If he was upfront for us we would have done even more damage in Europe.

Larrson is still class though. Done wonders at Celtic and was brilliant for his country. Done alright for us, even though it was only for a few months.

Larrson is the best player Scottish football have probably had in the last 20 years. What a Face

The all time top scorer in the best league in the world, or the 2nd all time top scorer in a league that's the equivalent of the Latvian 3rd Division? Hmmm

Larsson scored MORE GOALS than Shearer in his career
Won the Champions League and got man of the match
Proved his ability at Celtic then went onto play for the likes of United and Barcelona and won Barcelona the Champions League

Larsson was far better than Shearer

Shearer. Not to say Larsson wasn't anywhere near him because he was a terrific player, but Shearer edges it for me.

Larsson was far better than Shearer

Shearer also scored loads of goals for Newcastle and they were not always a great team, Larsson scored loads of his goals in the SPL which was without doubt a easier League to score goals in as it did not or has not the same quality of player in it. Yes Larsson would have scored goals wherever he would have played and was a better footballer than Shearer but he would not have scored as many goals as he did in Scottish football, if he had played in a better League.

But Larsson and Shearer were both top class.

Larsson scored goals for fun at Barca!?! Won them the Champions League, brought Celtic to a European Final, he's scored more in his career. I just can't see what Shearers done to be better than him.

13 goals in two seasons is scoring goals for fun? Fair enough, he missed a lot of his second season, but you can't really compare the goalscoring records like that.

Or you could say 13 goals in 40 league games, many of which won't have been starts..

Didn't score for fun, but he wasn't bad at Barcelona, and ultimately played a rather large part in winning the CL for them.

And he was great for us as well. All of that in his mid 30s.

Simple he Shearer scored more goals for more season's in a higher quality League and for a team that were not the best in that League. Yes Larsson scored goals for Barcelona and would have scored goals wherever he would have played and created goals but that Barcelona team was also top class and were the best team in Europe, and Larsson scored 19 goals for Barcelona in 58 games.

Put Shearer in the SPL he would have scored loads of goals, put Shearer in a better team than what Newcastle was he would have probably scored more goals. Put Larsson in that Newcastle team and yes he would have scored and created goals, but not as many as he did in Scotland or maybe not as many as Shearer scored in that Newcastle side Shearer scored 206 goals in 404 games for Newcastle, and that is top class to do that in a team that was not the greatest.

Shearer total: 379
Larsson total: 434

Also what Larsson achieved in terms of trophies should be taken into account.

Larsson scored lots of his goals in a League that was not as high quality as the League Shearer was playing in and Shearer played for teams that were not as good as the teams Larsson played for.
