A lot of people saying Carrick. :rofl: I thought I was the only one who rated him or is that one too many?

Adebayor (poor finishing, my Nan could score more as a striker in the Arsenal team)
Drogba (only had one top season yet is still mentioned as one of the top strikers in the world)
Berbatov (nothing to like about this guy)
Skrtel (i'm not seeing what's so special about him)

Adebayor overrated? How? Great power, pace, aerial ability, links play good, brilliant hold up play, and scored loads. Lots of assists too.

Rooney would definitely not score 30 at Arsenal, neither would Berbatov, neither would Tevez...

But Eduardo would have scored twice as many as Adebayor if he'd played all season with all the chances that he missed...

No I couldn't replace the Andriy Voronin elastic band. :p

Eduardo wouldn't have had the chances he missed becuase he isn't as fast or strong.

i disagree, he misses alot of tap ins, IMO he gets 1 in 6, he doesnt work for his goals he just is on the end of it in the box, he brings some hight to the arsenal team but rarly scores with his head. if u were to swap torres and adebayor then wed have torres on 40 a season ade on 10

Doesn't work for his goals?! His pace and power creates over half of them. He scores 1 in 4 same as torres and Ronaldo if you by the stats of last season. Torres wouldn't score anymore than Ade would his strength couldn't be any more over looked it creates alot for Adebayor and Adebayor has 7 assists this season so he brings more than goals. Adebayor is hugely underated if you look at most comments about him.

comparing Torres with Adebayor just highlights the amount of blinkered bias some people have about their own players imo.

Torres is a better striker than Ade, simple as that. Ade has had 1 very good season and thats it. Torres is one of the top 3 in the world over the past 3 seasons (ignoring his injury plagued season so far)

Adebayor last season was just as good as Torres I don't care if it was his first season playing that well and Adebayor already has 10 goals this season while being injured alot.
