You seem to be blissfully ignorant that Charlton played in midfield, not as a striker.

Scoring a goal every three games from central midfield is phenomenal yet you think it's appropriate to laugh at that as though it is a crap return? You are a moron.

You have just massively embarrassed yourself with your own ignorance and stupidity. That goes for all of you who thought that Sir Bobby was a striker throughout his career.

Have a look at the attached team sheets, for example. What position was Charlton playing in these iconic matches?

False comment.

How can you be a false 9 when you have two strikers playing in front of you and two wingers on the flanks?

thats why its false 9 not an actual 9

Geoff Hurst kept Greaves out of the team once he'd got his chance, including scoring a hatrick to win the world cup final but is not even considered in this list

exactly, rooney doesnt get dropped even when in poor form, it shows his quality

thats why its false 9 not an actual 9

No. There is no 9 except in your head.

Show me an article that describes Charlton as a striker or stop talking crap. Just be an adult about it and admit you were wrong.

Exactly. Glad we are agreeing, there is no actual number 9 which is why it is given the term false 9 as opposed to actual 9

We're not agreeing. For the avoidance of doubt, you are talking pig crap. And you know it.

The term false 9 did not exist in the 60s because there was no such thing. And you know that too.

You are just being a nob. I'm sure we can agree fully on that.

So you agree he didn't play as a number 9 but wont admit it?

Eh? The whole point I have been making is that he was not a no.9 striker, false or otherwise.

He was a midfielder. Which part of that can't you comprehend?

so hes not a 9, hence the false

So you can't read or understand plain English. Hence you're a nob.

look you may not understand football, but i do. this is important. Someone can only be a false 9 if they do not play as a number 9. this is an important concept
