Re: Is Edinson Cavani the best striker in the world?

by S32TABLANCA Wed Oct 12, 2011 10:38 pm

Yeah, but Ronaldo isnt a striker, and Messi isnt the kind of striker to compare with Gomez and Cavani, so its not fair to compare. If you did, then obviously those two would be better. IMO the best forward line right now would be:

Messi-------Ronaldo
------Cavani

Divine Intervention wrote:Yes, he is.Cavani edges Gomez marginally. Cavani possesses far better shooting or passing technique than Gomez whereas Gomez is a lot more physical. Still, I don't see Gomez score lot from outside the box,workrate is about even, none of them are pure poachers like people make them out to be. Cavani could score from everywhere.

Mario Gomez last 2 Goals.

However, he is a fantastic player.

Cavani and Gomez are the best Natural strikers in the world.

Gomez gets a lot of help from Bayern quality side back, Wingers and Midfielders.

Cavani is the best striker at the moment.

Cavani is the new name in the elite.

RVP and Cavani - what a partnership... (id take Usmanov as our new owner just for a couple seasons so we can enjoy the real football manager for a while).

Maybe not the best but easily top 5

i think he was slightly nervous today, and could play his game.

Its against the likes of Bayern I would like to see his performance, befor saying he is among the best.

The refs were terrible overall today.

Then don't jump with your hands all over the place. Still a foul according to rules.

It was not seen by ref, OK, we move on.

But it was a foul.

by Sushi Master Tue Oct 18, 2011 10:16 pm

The refs were pretty meh, too card happy for my liking.

If it were a Barca match at least 2 would have seen red banana

Read the rules plz.

He has abosulutley no buisness throwing his hand up like that in the air, is he a GK?
And the ball changed its path COZ OF THE HAND OF THE PLAYER, school example of penalty. Clear peno, only super biased ppl will deny it.

Like i said Napoli damaged :coffee:

"

What a terrible terrible excuse bro.

by Lord Spencer Tue Oct 18, 2011 10:32 pm

Bias blinds the eye.

It was a handball, Ref did not see it.

Pretending it shouldn't have been blown is ridicilous. Saying implementing 100% of the rules would stop football from being played is a gross exaggeration as well.

You say that should not have been penalty?

There are thousands of more blatant handballs that go unnoticed.

The 1-1 was more than a fair result.

I said it was a penalty, but what can you do after the game.

Red part says it was a handball, therefore a foul, and in the box therefore a penalty. Ref did not see it however which is probably why he didn't call it.

OK, I agree, but it was a handball.

1-1 is a fair result, no need to say it shouldn't have been a penalty, because you will be calling for it if it was for Bayern.

It is understandable though, refs make mistakes all the time.

by baresi Tue Oct 18, 2011 10:41 pm

Are we really discussing if Napoli should have been granted a peno or not???

If Bayerns peno was one then I dont see why Napoli should have gotten one.

As Spencer said, ref did'nt see it we move on fair enough, but it was a peno.

Yes you say it was handball but then twist! "Pretending it should have been blown is ridicilous."

Is my english so bad i dont get it? Or are you saying "Pretending it should have been blown is ridicilous." coz ref didnt see it, thus it couldnt be blown?

Edit: ignore all this :coffee:
