Ibrahimovic

he has been creative lately but didn't show that when he was at benzema's age..but yesterday he was amazing.

He only has 5 in the league......

You can't just claim things to be an assist that are not.....

Great player but Ibrahimovic is much more creative as a CF as is Adebayor this season.

Ade is no where near as creative as Benzema.

Really?

Ade has 10 assists in the BPL alone! Not to mentioned he has created 46 chances for his team mates compared to Benzema's 24.

Adebayor > Benzema in creativity

Ibra was already a superstar at 24. He was already well known for his technicality and passing for a CF in his size.

ibra is the most creative,but benz in right therre in 2nd place for me

edit:nevermind

Benz is more skillful than Ade, with the ball at his feet facing goal Benz is moe creative.

But that isnt the only way to be creative, Ade with his back to goal is very good and his ability to find people that way is clearly very effective. He is also good at playing the final pass.

Benz is more skillful, can dribble better and produce more difficult passes but Ade has created more in his own, different, way.

Creativity =/= assists

Yeah it's very different, Ade's ability to create space with his back to goal is amazing at time.

Running at goal I would give it to Benzema

But Ibra can do both very well

Benzema has a better understanding of his teammates than Ibra and Adebayor.
The way he brings other players to the games with his excellent link up play is amazing.

Chances created doesnt show that he's more creative, especially when you consider alot of chances Ade creates are from simple knock downs......

Alot of people are talking about the 4 assists he got against us but if you look at each assist they will pretty much all knockdowns.

Because he created more chances and more assists doesnt mean he's more creative.

Ade is someone who does the simple stuff all the time but doesnt try anything risky mainly because he cant.

Ade is basically the Busquets of chance creating and Benzema is the Alonso

I think Dani covered it nicely

Benzema this year has been a beast and he is a technical genius,second after Ozil in our squad.

Higuains days as starter is over,Benz is by far technically better than him except may be finishing technique.

Opta ESPN and UEFA say 5, so it's 5.

What are you Marca? lmao

And if you don't want a discussion on anything why wasn't this put in the Real Madrid section then?

what i want is appreciation not people like you trolling around.

Hey assists are touchy, they say alot more about being in the position to make a key pass than your actual choice/and or ability to make them.It's the type of stat that convinced 47 blind idiots on the IFFHS panel to believe Ronaldo is the best playmaker in the world.

Want proof of Benzema's creativity? Watch the games........I was suprised at how well some viewed his performance over the weekend considering creatively it was perhaps his worst game of the season.

Crimson,come on....we saw Ade, he looked like a fish out of water with the ball at his feet in our line up, he's been doing a good job thus far this season, heading on or making a simple passes , fair play to him....but I seriously doubt he's the 2nd most creative striker in the world.

For me what Benz does that makes me label him as creative, is the little things......making the right pass,dangerous crosses , through balls,movement and technical ability that opens up space etc.

Crimson i'd be pretty interested to see what's Iniestas chance created or assist average because I'm pretty sure it's low.....as was Zidane's.There's a type of creativity that just can't be quantified sometimes.

He created our sole away goal when all other sources ( Özil and CR7) were marked out of the game.
