Zlatan Ibrahimovic - Big threat or big flop??

The guy who calls himself the best player in the world has often failed to perform for Sweden and moreover in general against English clubs. I have an inkling however that this is about to change, as captain he seems to have matured somewhat and I really hope Roy Hodgson has a plan as to how to handle him cos when he's on form he can be a big handful.

What do other people reckon, will he come good or fail to meet expectations yet again??

His autobiography 'I am Zlatan' is choc a bloc with funny unbelievably arrogant quotes and anecdotes btw if anyone wanted a good read.

Written an analysis of Zlatan here http://blog.oddslife.com/2012/06/euro-2012-player-watch-zlatan-ibrahimovic/

He was the only player who was performing for Sweden v Ukraine. Everything good went through him. If only they had 1 other player of his quality on the team.

Zlatan is in top form, one of the best players in the tournament.
I think it's the other players in the Sweden team who need to understand and anticipate Zlatan's football.

All i know is he is a CL curse

Milan will not win CL with Ibra in it.

His league record was broken this season, so his CL will be broken next season maybe... if he stays... and if we fix up the rest of the team.

Big threat, of course. He is the best CF in the world #fact

This.

"often failed to perform for Sweden"

Shows you don't watch Sweden games

He usually is our best player unless he is extremly lazy (often in friendlies)

Big threat, when hitting his top form hes one of the best players in the world

always a big threat -- as long as the ball gets to him

Zlatan played great when he was involved, but did find it hard to link up with the other players who cant shoot or pass a ball if their lives depended on it. England has better players in all positions except from Swedens Zlatan, and the outcome wasnt surprising at all, perhaps that Sweden got 2 goals was a bit surprising to me.
