Prime Shevchenko vs Falcao
by marottalad Sat Jul 27, 2013 6:07 am
Two in my opinion very similiar strikers with deceant pace, excellent heading and finishing skills as well as both having intelligence. Who would you take out of a prime sheva vs falcao?

Only strikers in the last decade or so I would take over prime Sheva are Henry, RvN, Eto'o & Drogba.

Fair enough but i strongly disagree! even a prime henry was beaten to the balon d'or by shevchenko. I think he will be one of those great forgotten players because he flopped at chelsea but at Milan looking back on some old footage the dude was unplayable i think he was the best striker ive ever seen after fat ronaldo( i don't consider messi a striker i consider him a wide forward/winger).

^I think he just didn't state his point well.
We're talking about CFs. Messi doesn't count.

When was the last time you watched a Barcelona game? Serious question... just curious
Messi hasn't been a right forward since 2009/2010 season. He plays centrally as a false 9. As far as I'm concerned he is a CF. He has noone in front of him so he is Barcelona's CF. THis semantics with false this and fake that is just trying to make the game complicated. He is Barcelona's focal point up front whether he drops deep or not.

Messi plays in the centre of attack as a "False 9" and has been doing so since 2 and a half years and has won 3 Balon D Ors because of it.

Yeah, notice I said three not four. All 3 of his his FIFA Balon D Ors he won while playing as False 9.
On topic I would only take Ronaldo, Henry and Batistuta over Sheva during his generation. Maybe a prime Vieri too.

Messi is NOT a CF. There's a difference between playing as a CF and being an actual CF.
