I just don't understand why English fans dislike Ibrahimovic. Sure, he's cocky and annoying, but it's all innocent.
Put that aside, talent wise he is in the top 3 players in the world imo.
All I hear from English fans are:
"Well he never performs against English sides", "He's overrrated", etc.
Overrated? Pretty rich, seeing as they have the likes of Rooney and Gerrard playing for them.
Ibrahimovic would walk into any squad in the world, blindfolded.

Well Dubbed he seemed to walk into Barcelona and walk straight back out after 1 year

He's certainly overrated imo. Making him even more despicable is the conceit, self-obsession and general insubordination with any coach who doesn't consider him good enough.
A truly loathsome creature all around.

He looks like a long haired version of Gary Neville. That is enough for me not to like him.

World class player but top 3? Let's take the top two as a given you really think there is no better player in the world than him than Messi and Ronaldo?

He's no Stewart Downing, that's for sure.

Technically speaking, he is ahead of Ronaldo.

Ibrahimovic is an amazing talent, he can do anything in the final third but quite often (especially in Europe) he flatters to deceive.
The likes of Gerrard and Rooney have done much better in the CL.

I hate Ronaldo as much as the next bias football fan but I'd take him over Ibra every day of the week, and Xavi, and Iniesta, and Suarez over Ibra too

"I hate Ronaldo as much as the next bias football fan but I'd take him over Ibra every day of the week"
So would I. But I'm talking specifically about his technical ability. Ronaldo is still the better player, of course.
