Still racist and certainly wasn't said in an "endearing way" was it?

You seem to think scoring the most goals determines the best strikers. The best way to determine who is the better player is to look at the opinion of the experts of the game so of course it's relevant. They decided Suarez was better than RVP that season.

---

Are these the same 'experts' that use phrases such as 'entitled to go down', or the same experts that appear on MotD? Are these experts Garth Crooks? I completely disregard opinions when trying to determine whether or not someone was a better striker - because they're generally all bias one way or the other.

The best method of determining the best striker is probably points earned per goal/game. I.E how many of the strikers goals directly earned the points for their team. Since I don't know if any such table exists, I'll have to make do with the amount they scored, and assume that translated in to the most points.

The Fergie Association knew he was a threat and tried to make his position at Liverpool unattainable.

No he doesn't score bucket loads for a striker playing at one of the best team in europe for the last 10 years...

clearly proves you dont watch us much

When has Rooney played as the main striker at United?

My point is Suarez didn't say anything to Evra

...................

Then you would have to think that Suarez was an absolute idiot then in admitting he did, to the FA.

I don't really care whether Rooney is world class or not to be honest.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You're probably on the wrong thread then. I mean I don't care either, but it's fun to watch everyone turning blue at the though of their fav player not being awarded this silly accolade.
-----------------------------

I'd rather have a team of very good players that win trophies than a few world class players that don't win anything - like Arsenal.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Oookay, and that's relevant to this because....?
----------------------------------

Because it might wind a few Arsenal fans up.

The best player in general, was Bale. The best striker was RvP.

Saying that they were 'better' than Suarez, does someone diminish his clear importance for Liverpool. I don't think anyone is trying to make it out as those 2 had a massive difference with Suarez.

If you are looking for a neutral voting for last seasons player of the year, then look no further than the football writers votes. Bale first RVP second.

That doesn't make it relevant. It might be why you wrote it. Either way, it didn't seem to work though, but poor Arsenal fans can't get a word in with all these ManU and Liverpool fans winding each other up.

re: Suarez becoming world class over a period of time

"There's no denying he's not got the talent to do it"

I deny that

..................

According to Nibbles there was. Not sure how you can come to your conclusion when the player himself admitted his offence.

You have manged to make yourself look silly again WNM. Do you have no self respect.

Comparing Wayne Rooney's gol scoring record to RVN's record is like comparing Drogba's record to Mata's

It is utterly hillarious that some United fans think RVN and Rooney are

a. like for like players
b. Even played in the same position

he lengths some will go to to diss our best player is unreal in the extreme. Even making up where he plays

Rooney is NOT a Gary Lineker for crying out loud

I was joking.

The point I was initially making is that I don't really care whether or not Rooney is world class. It should be quite a simple step to work out why I said what I did about rather having a team of very good players that win trophies than a few world class players that win nothing.

You mean the people that wrote sheit about Suarez all year and didn't even put Suarez in the top 3? Yeah ok
----------------------------------------------------------------------

So there was a grand conspiracy to keep Suarez out of the top 3 players by the evil sportswriters.

Superb

The only silly one on here is you who believes anything a Man Utd player says you've be caught hook line and sinker.

Somebody else has just come up with a corker. You can only be deemed world class if you can make a world 11 apparently.

Damn shame that. Messi, Ronaldo, Zlatan, Falcao, Aguero, Lewandowski, RVP, Suarez, Benzema, Neymar, Higuain & Diego Costa don't all fit into a world 11.

So they can't all be world class, can they?
