Rip_the_jacker you a funny cat. but look
In the Keeper stakes it’s no competition I’ll grant you that but anywhere else it’s a joke and since we including players from all the teams then we this will get interesting, but you cannot win, it would be ludicrous for you to win!
We are talking world cla** players with excellent ability and skill here okay.
Crouch is laughable, good but nowhere near where you are rating him. Drogba-Schevchenko-Berbatov-Saha-van Persie-still coming along-Rooney-Tevez-Owen.
Midfielders
This is where there’s talent but not as technically skilled as other countries.
Ronaldo-Giggs-Scholes – easily the most technically gifted of the English born midfielders of his generation-Makelele-mascherano –will become a monster if he continues in the same vein as he is going now-Xabi Alons –only player worth watching in the Liverpool team-Gerrard-Ballack-Mikel– too much potential-Essien – damn-Diarra – very iffy but given chances he’ll also become world cla**-Cesc – This is scary talent only person rivaling and maybe surpa**ing him in last two years is Messi-Denilson and Diaby look like they’ll have defenders shook one day-Rosicky,
Spain Quality is madd
Attackers
Ronaldinho-Henry-Messi-Eto’o-Ruud-Raul – on quality alone he is twisted-Villa-Aguero-Sambrosa Simao - Liverpool done fcked up but he’ll play a less restrictive game in spain –not that defending all you epl fans are always concerned about-Reyes-Robben, Luis Garcia-Sneijder-Robinho-Joaquin-Vincente

Aimar-Riquelme-Guti-Deco-Iniesta-Diarra-Gago-Angulo-Xavi-Toure

On the subs bench raring to go you have all these attaking, flair players i.e robben, reyes, henry –not so much flair, marquez for his allround game. Then Robinho, sneijder, Sambrosa, aguerro. The reason English players struggle is because they are rigid. Case in point Lampard, Gerrard for all their ability, supposed in terms of Lampard, they are too rigid. For all the goals they might score, they struggle against pure footballing countries.
Man this has gotten tiring. Lets take a so called english flair, attacking player you joe cole, lennon, wright-phillips and contrast them with your messi, tevez, robben -look at their close ball control and their fluidity of movement. rooney is the only one close in terms of ball control and he is a rarity, scholes is second and too bad giggs is welsh. Other teams all their midfielders are techniicaaly superior, even Essien is better than you lampard and gerrad in tis department, rather watch him play than the whole english national team squad.
