Is Podolski world class?

In all seriousness, I think hes extrenely underrated just cuz he plays for Koln (who are actually a midtable team and are vrry uderrated themselves). So do you guys consider him world class? I do. Scoring 9 goals in 12 games is seriously impressive, especially cibsidering he doesnt get the same service at Koln as Gomez gets at Bayern or Lewandowski at Dortmund or Huntelaar at Schalke. Plus he gives plenty of assists too. So is he world class?

Podolski extremely underrated? You must be reading another forum...

his a god and i think that is miles above worldclass

World Class: Riquelme
Mars Class: Messi
Olympian Class: Podolski

Podolski = Heaven Class

Still don't get the Podolski hype.

Podolski is a class of it's own

Lol.. I've always thought he is very good but the majority of the forum is on his nuts.. Of course its all in good fun

I know it's in good fun but why Podolski?

We may as well hype Munitis or Planus the same way.

He feeds the people.



Long story, short: Viva.

Yeah, maybe that goes for OM as well, I suppose.

I miss Droit.

how long before he beats the German NT goal record? he is only 26.... needs only 25 goal more to level with Muller

Podolski

Spoiler:

U jelly?

Yes he is.
Scores one every two games for Germany.
Scored 9 and assisted some more in 12 for Cologne this season.

Has a smile to melt hearts. <3

He is god.

Poldi is the greatest thing that's ever happened to humanity. How dare you question his class?

He is god

this can only be decided with sports 3 main criteria:
- scope of his game
- pitch impact
- statistics

podolski is nothing more than (meh) a sort of tasteful internet meme...

in real life.. he cant even hold a candle to sahin ffs.

You spelled "in real life, Dortmund is much stronger than Cologne" wrong, TMO.

i think you spelled " my arguments are invalid, sahin is god,no wait my mistake tmo is.." wrong my german compatriot..

meh if germany ever beats turkey its because sahin aint trying..

Sahin obviously can't carry a shit team like Turkey alone, while Podolski is doing exactly that more often than not with Cologne.

BUSTED.

If Messi and CRonaldo are world class, then Poldi is even better:

"Of 34 shots attempted, Podolski has hit the target with 18 efforts (53%), compared to Messi (49%) and Ronaldo (37%). His ferocious left-footed strikes prove all-but unstoppable, with keepers having conceded 61% of the efforts he strikes on target. In comparison, Ronaldo's similarly powerful attempts beat the keeper with every 53% of his shots on target, while Messi only scores with every 41% of his shots to test the keeper."

I'm sorry, but to even consider Podolski in that world class status is simply absurd. He only gives it his best when he's playing for Germany, and the funny thing is that he's been poor this season with his national team, but has discovered some consistency with Koln. World class status isn't based on statistics, but what the players offer on the pitch...
