Players that think they're better than they are.

Robbie Savage immediately springs to mind. As talented as a dead miner. Drogba is a top player but for some reason I reckon he thinks he's the best in the world even though he's rarely fit now. I think Fletcher thinks he's good just because he plays for Man U but when he plays for an average side (Scotland

) he struggles to make an impact. Barry Ferguson seems to think that just because he can run a game in the SPL that he is God. Out of his comfort zone at Blackburn and although he was unlucky with injuries he did seem a bit out of place.

Ronaldo. (The fake one)

When asked recently who was the best player ever, he said it was him.

26-10-2008 4:49pm

he has reason to think he's good though mate, i'm more more inclined for someone like Henri Camara

Thanx 4 The Fish · 26-10-2008 4:54pm

So you agree then that Ronaldo is the best player ever :rolleyes:

You asked a question, who is a player who thinks he is better than he is, he thinks he is the best player ever.

He is not, he fits the bill.

This is the 'People who think they're better at starting threads than they are' thread isn't it?

roryc · 26-10-2008 5:03pm

Ah right, didn't realise it was that tool starting pointless threads again... I do jump at any chance to badmouth Nani though

adox · 26-10-2008 5:04pm

WTF?

There are some ridiculous threads being started here in the last couple of days.

No need to make your point in every topic. Personally I'm finding your posts more irritating in the last few topics

I'd go for David Bentley. Always comes across as someone who thinks he is a great player whenever I have seen his interviews

take it out

Nani is pretty useless at the best of times but seems to have that arrogance his portugese teammate shares, that he is god. Ashley Cole is another who comes to mind. Wes Brown, the cheek of this guy to refuse to sign a contract extension last season for United holding out for more money. This is a guy that has scored about 15-20 own goals since 1999 for United. That in itself must be a record for a defender.

shane86 · 26-10-2008 8:24pm

Nani is one of the best young prospects in the EPL. He has not hit the heights of greatness at an early age like Ronaldo, Rooney, Walcott (who would if he got any amount of regular game time, why he wasnt loaned out i will never know) etc etc. He is a work in progress.

kryogen · 26-10-2008 8:27pm

eh, most players think they are better then they are tbh, you kind of need that confidence or you wont make it very far

where did Ronaldo say he was the best ever? id like to see that

Mitch Connor · 26-10-2008 8:42pm

it was at the premier of the new Giggs DVD - himself, Rio and Anderson were walking in together and they were all asked; Ronnie DID say he was, but I honestly doubt he was being serious.

tbh can anyone under the age of 60 truly claim to know the best ever? I could say Maradona or Pele, but it is more what other people say mixed with a few great clips than having watched him over 18 years.

LOL, I came here to post this.

Trumped up little upstart, who epitimises everything that is wrong with game today. How this **** thought he was good enough to take the piss out of Bobby Robson is beyond me.

As much as I hate Ronaldo you really gotta admire that confidence...

Eh, I think if you read up on some of his charity work and initiatives outside football you may end up with a different opinion.

I'll give him his dues there, but for the sh/t he gave Bobby Robson, i'll never look favorably on him.

yeah - hence me doubting he was serious.

Steven Gerrard, thinks the liverpool team should be built around him when it should be built around Xabi Alonso

Also thinks he is too good to be played on the wings.

Massive Massive +1. He only plays well in the last 5 minutes of games when Liverpool are behind or drawing normally ending in a goal or in big games. Other than that he's annonymous

If Andy Gray posted on this board, he would lynch ya for such comments over his 'little beauty'.

The kid doesn't have a word of English, so when the mic came over to him he just copied what Rio said word for word.
