alexmj 19 Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 Re: WHo do u think is the best RB at the moment ????????? I'm sorry but baring in mind you also quoted that Rooney is the best striker in the world and other Manchester United fan-type bias' date=' I'll confirm you're by far the most deluded fan I've ever seen.[/quote']Sorry, last time I checked we were European and English Champions.

Rooney #10 10 Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 Re: WHo do u think is the best RB at the moment ????????? Right now, Alves and Bosingwa. Over last season I would have said the other three. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
master_mind 91 Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Re: WHo do u think is the best RB at the moment ????????? This is my top 10: (in brackets it's my opinion about ratings they should be/get) 1. Maicon (96) 2. Dani Alves (95) 3. Bosingwa (94) 4. Ramos (94) 5. Lahm (93/94) - plays more like LB but very good/young polyvalent player 5. Sagna (93/94) - Wenger made excellent deal bringing him from Auxerre, No.1 French RB 6. Miguel (92) 7. Fritz (92) - very underrated player...No.1 German RB and excellent for Werder. 8. Ćorluka (92/93) - young/talented player excellent for Croatia NT, hopefully Spurs will have better days so his rating will increase...I like his attacking style. 9. Castro (91) - same as Ćorluka(HSV/Germany) but he has been injured recently 10.Lell (91) - very underrated player which plays excellent for Bayern. This is my honest opinion but some surely will not agree with me. Cheers, MM! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rooney #10 10 Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Re: WHo do u think is the best RB at the moment ????????? I don't think any right-back should be 96 to be honest. For me it's: Alves - 94 Ramos - 94 Maicon - 94 Bosingwa - 94 Zambrotta - 93 Sagna - 93 and Evra - 94 Abidal - 93 Clichy - 93 Cole - 93 Lahm - 93 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rooney #10 10 Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Re: WHo do u think is the best RB at the moment ????????? And while I'm at it: Ferdinand - 96 Terry - 96 Puyol - 95 Nesta - 94 Corboda - 94 Vidic - 94 Carvalho - 94 Lampard - 96 Gerrard - 96 Xavi - 96 Essien - 95 Sneijder - 95 Fabregas - 95 Scholes - 94 Pirlo - 94 Diego - 94 De Rossi - 94 Zanetti - 94 Ronaldo - 98 Messi - 98 Kaka - 97 Rooney - 96 Eto'o - 96 Drogba - 96 Torres - 96 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
realx7madrid 424 Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Re: WHo do u think is the best RB at the moment ????????? And while I'm at it:Ferdinand - 96 Fair Enough Terry - 96 95 is right for him' date=' he is overrated by the media[/i'] Puyol - 95 This is horribly inaccurate, Puyol is the best CB in the world , only Ferdinand can contest him, Puyol's only problem is that he is a horrible attacker, but on defense, unbeatable Nesta - 94 Nesta has dropped in ability, so this seems fair Corboda - 94 Fair as well Vidic - 94 I dont really see why he would drop from a 95 honestly Carvalho - 94 Last season I would have argued for a 95, this one not so much Lampard - 96 Fair enough Gerrard - 96 I think he deserves a 97, but his hypocrisy:D should drive him to 96 Xavi - 96 The best CM in the world, should be a 97 Essien - 95 Sneijder - 95 I dont think so, he has yet to be on Fabregas and Iniesta's level Fabregas - 95 Scholes - 94 Honestly his days are long gone, not worthy of a 94 Pirlo - 94 This is very harsh, Nesta yes, but Pirlo not a 95, not really fair Diego - 94 He deserves a 95, although his team is not worthy of his ability De Rossi - 94 Not really sure Zanetti - 94 Only a step bellow ferdinand and puyol, deserves a 95, and should really be D/M Ronaldo - 98 Fine Messi - 98 An Man U fan that values messi, nice Kaka - 97 I think he is the second best after Messi, but kaka hasn't been on the best of forms Rooney - 96 I think 95 is more just Eto'o - 96 Him and David Villa should both be 97 Drogba - 96 Please, Drogba deserves nothing more than a 94, seriously he lives of his past glory Torres - 96 I think Torres should honestly be 95, although by the end of this season should be a 96 This is what I honestly believe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KopStar 6,334 Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Re: WHo do u think is the best RB at the moment ????????? As a Liverpool fan I find it hard to say but Bosingwa is the best. He is a solid defender and has scored some absolute peaches this season.. great buy by Chelsea but I wish he was the right back we signed and not Degen! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If Kaka is in the top 3 for World Player of the Year he should not decrease. If Ronaldo wins I think he could get a 99, and if Messi wins, the same. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Schuldiner 652 Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Re: WHo do u think is the best RB at the moment ????????? Puyol is the best CB in the world ' date=' only Ferdinand can contest him, Puyol's only problem is that he is a horrible attacker, but on defense, unbeatable[/quote']I want some of whatever it is you've been smoking. Puyol is possibly the most overrated player in the world at the moment... in any position. He just seems good for Spain because Casillas covers all his mistakes, and for Barca because their midfield hogs the ball and he doesn't have much to do most of the time. I think his legend status clouds people's judgement far too much. Brilliant attitude and commitment, but he's always wandering out of position, he's too reckless with his tackling meaning he just get's left on his backside without the ball half the time, he's useless at heading, he can't pass that well and he panics when he's in possession around the 18-yard box. He's always been far more effective as a RB in my opinion (and might even make this list if he played there regularly enough). He only ever got moved to CB because Spain already had Salgado at RB and they (and Barca) were short in the middle after Nadal retired. World's best CB??? He isn't even Spain's best CB (Raul Albiol is). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And again seeing that Daniel Alves moves up, Puyol covers more than his share on the defense. And on Barca players, I recognize class where class exists. I wish Madrid would have those Players, but our directives are far too stupid to sign quality players,(look at their chase to buy Hernan Crespo). I do hate the Barca entity, but I really like many of them, just to say, currently my two favorite players in action are A Raul B Xavi Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's always been the impression I've got from watching him play. I admit you've probably seen a lot more of him than I have, but I've always thought he's often looked like Barca's (and Spain's) weakest link at the back (mainly because of his lack of positional discipline). He makes too many rash challenges, and focuses on being right on the striker's shoulder too much and forgets he's leaving a big hole behind him - he's almost too committed. He looks good on the surface, but when you switch to Alan Hansen mode and analyse his game a bit, you start to see the cracks. He was certainly Spain's weakest defender in the Euros, and I can't remember him having one really good game in the CL for quite a few years now (correct me if I've forgotten one). I don't see him playing in La Liga very often though. Maybe he plays better in league games? Or maybe he just stands out in La Liga because the defences are generally weaker than in England/Italy/Germany? We'll agree to disagree anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
darshan j. 1,162 Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 Re: WHo do u think is the best RB at the moment ????????? Yep I find Puyol overrated as well. Have seen him play many times, and he's never really impressed me. At the Euros, Marchena was amazing, not Puyol. I wonder what would of happened if didn't have Casillas in goal, or Marchena, Senna, Capdevilla and Ramos along with him defensively. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
raz the great one 10 Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 Re: WHo do u think is the best RB at the moment ????????? ramos has got to be the best....alves and maicon dont compare to him defensivly...ramos is rock rock i no coz i wtach all the madrid games Quote Link to post Share on other sites
