is calling a player the next <insert name>

That's 99% guaranteed failure. Players invent themselves all the time, create their own legend. How many that were dubbed the new Ronnie, the new Pele, Maradona, R9, Zidane and what not, flopped.

Just look at Robinho and Gourcuff, next Pele and Zidane respectively, LOL

few arre exceptions of cours

Going the other way, can calling a player the next Bonera turn them into a legend with such a high success rate?

If so, brb, crucifying youth team :coffee:

dunno about that, but when the comparison is ridiculous, it often works. Like the white Pele or the french Ronaldo Very Happy

nobody calls balotelli the new anything because he is black and italian, there is no black and italian greats so we cant compare.

Nuri Sahin, the next Wilshere

How is he doing now? Off course is never a good idea to compare them with greats.
