Dubbed, are you one of those posters who only a few weeks ago were proclaiming van persie to be the world's best striker?, those articles are thin on the ground all of a sudden.

Batmanu is obsessed with Valencia. I really dont know why. He is nothing special. Good player but nothing special. And Guardiola didnt said something like this about Valencia. I follow the spanish media very closely.

"Dubbed, are you one of those posters who only a few weeks ago were proclaiming van persie to be the world's best striker?, those articles are thin on the ground all of a sudden."

Why? Because he hasn't scored in 3 games? His longest drought in 16 months?

Yes

It's a pretty similar argument too. There were more talented strikers than Van Persie in the world, there were strikers scoring prettier goals than Van Persie but there weren't any more effective than Van Persie.

Apart from Ibrahimovic. What striker is technically more talented than RVP?

Amusing that you're trying to place the Valencia argument alongside RVP.

It's not the same. Don't try it.

Valencia has zero ability on the ball. RVP has boundless.

He is among them. Not sure if he is number 1 though.

It's exactly the same. There are more talented strikers than Van Persie. Ibrahimovic, Balotelli, Robinho, Berbatov, Neymar all better with the ball (not even counting Messi and Ronaldo.) There are countless strikers better in the air and there are countless strikers that are quicker but they're not as effective as Van Persie has been this season.

Balloteli? Robinho's finished. Berbatov.

You don't know what you're talking about.

Just no! RVP's first touch, close control, technique, vision are all top class. Ibra and Neymar and the only ones comparable for talent but RVP still > them.

Watch some of the things Balotelli does and Berbatov used to do when he got games. Stuff Van Persie couldn't dream of. Robinho looked decent enough scoring the goals to put you out the Champions league.

Berbatov has a wonderful first touch to be fair.

That's about as far as I can go.

Why are you acting like RVP's some sort of target man, work horse?

You have no idea.

Van Persie is technically superior to any striker in England.

posted on 3/4/12

He'd need to be good in the air to be a target man.

Has a great first touch and great vision, just doesn't suit how United play at all.

RVP has crazy skill, he doesn't pull it out so much now he's playing as our main goalscorer.

My point went over your head. Not the first time today.

Even though I don't agree with the article, I just want to say how much Dubbed makes me laugh when he gets into debates with rival posters

He gets on their nerves so much, it's hilarious
