Roger Milla was scoring key world cup goals at the age of 38 means he is a greater player than Henry? undecided
It is tantamount to  treasonable felony to compare O Fenômeno to Henry, and only a cule would be silly enough to do it.
One of the greatest footballers of all time, 3x WPOTY and the youngest player to ever win the award, should not be compared to Henry, who is very far from the company of players we are talking about.

I've conceded international football to Ronaldo.

I'm comparing their club careers. .  and no one has made any argument that shows otherwise. Ronaldo did not have a better club career than Henry. you can take that to the bank!!

Forget Henry's goals sef. .  the assists he has put up over his career (just the numbers) are enough to put him in contention for world's best playmaker. . . He is that good   cool cool

90% of those assists weren't from open play. . . .
Henry did every shit. . . .Throw-ins, Corner-kicks, Free-kicks(direct n indirect).
In a non-quality team like Arsenal. . . .his team-mates gave him a free rein to do as he liked.

Henry ain't even the best player to have graced the EPL(never mind Europe).
Cantona, Zola and Shearer and Cristiano were all better than Henry.

yes ooo I have the audacity to call u a failed stastician cuz u are  wink grin grin. I have already shown you up on the false information u gave about henry,inzaghi and ronaldo. I repeat it again ONLY RONALDO CAN LAY CLAIM TO BE BETTER THAN HENRY. We all know sauron and dikee are jokin tongue grin.

You can't use one season where ronaldo score 34 goals to say he his the best and then ingore several where Henry scored 30 (or 20+) with 20+ assists. .   that is just bad math. .

and what is ur yard stick?
Ronaldo has played for 4 of the biggest clubs in Europe, winning top scorer in all the leagues he has played in, and has an overall goal scoring ratio of 0.7.
What has henry done that is comparable? the only thing henry has won that Ronaldo never did, was the CL.
Henry never scored more than 40 goals in a season, and yet Ronaldo scored 47 for Barcelona.

All the 20+ assists and goals henry copped then were rubbish cos he was 2nd best.

Ruud scored 44 in the EPL in 2002/3
C.Ronaldo scored 42 in 2007/8
Luiz Ronaldo scored 35 in 35 for PSV and 47 goals in 49 apps for Barcelona.

Tell us what Henry did that was spectacular in his prime.
Re: Manchester United Fan Thread by Krayola2(m): 9:37pm On Aug 25, 2009
haha. U guys have nothing to back u up. .  

What did Ronaldo do in his club career that henry did not do. U guys are just biased. Na just sentiment. Like I said the hate has blinded y'all  wink

Sow me ronaldo's stats for his club career and tell me hos they are better that Henry's.

Unless u can do that u're just making noise

Henry has scored 30+ goals 5 times in his career while ronaldo has achieved this same feat 4 times(6 times if u include psv and cruizero wink cool).

goal per game ratio in his club career is better. Also keep in mind ronaldo is not a goal hanger a la ruud

I wouldn't say shits on him. He was just better period. However the LEGEND part is true wink cool. Ronaldo O fenomeno is without doubt the greatest striker to have played football  cool cool cool cool cool.

biina:

and what is your yard stick?

overall productivity for entire career.

biina:

Ronaldo has played for 4 of the biggest clubs in Europe, winning top scorer in all the leagues he has played in

That Henry stayed at one club for a long time should not count against him. That would be unfair. He was top scorer in England several times (don't forget averaging about 15 assists aseason at Atsenal)

biina:

, and has an overall goal scoring ratio of 0.7.
What has henry done that is comparable? the only thing henry has won that Ronaldo never did, was the CL.

I'm not sure what Henry's ratio is, but i don't think Ronaldo ever had 15 assists in a season. .  talk less averaging that over 7 seasons, while scoring lots and lots of goals.



biina:

Henry never scored more than 40 goals in a season, and yet Ronaldo scored 47 for Barcelona.


Ronaldo only ever scored 30 league goals in Europe once (outside PSV). his highest besides that was 25. Henry scored 30 league goals in 2 seasons, 25 in another couple, 20+ in others. Ronaldo never had 20 assists in a season. .  Henry did a couple of times. For u to ignore such a huge advantage in Henry's favor is dishonest, at the least.


biina:

You must be high from sniffing elubo

Like I said, noone has made a better case for ronaldo. . .  its just a lot of posturing and noise.

Wrong again. Just keep disgracing ya self u hia. Can u name the second season he was meant to have scored 30+ league goals. 2003/4 is the only season he has done that(30 goals in 37 apps).

The fact of the matter is that Henry has had a better club career and is still growing strong. Ronaldo at his prime is the greatest ever. Case closed!!  wink

Can u imagine? 37 appearances when an entire league season itself is 38 games.
It is only in Arsenal a player can cop 37 appearances.
Cristiano Ronaldo is a better athlete than Henry. . . . .He never copped 37 league appearances for Man Utd.

U guys are just acting like u are not educated. U think u are sharp but u're just being silly. I said LEAGUE goals. At least understand the argument u are responding to. If I add FA cup and CL goals Henry has over 30 goals in 4 or 5 seasons, which shits on Ronaldo even more.

GREAT IMO is a summary term used to quantify players with different and all sort of records once they hang up their respective boots.
World class players are key to their respective team's success. They are players than can make impact/stamp own signature on the team's performance weak in weak out.
So are you saying Eto'o has not made and broken records?
2 UCL's
3 La Liga titles
Scoring twice in different UCL Finals
3 times African Player of the Year
Highest Goalscorer in Nations cup History
Olympic Gold winner
2nd Runner up WPOY (2005)

dayokanu:

[b]Can a coach decide to bench an important player in an important game? [/b]How many important games have Zidane, CR7, Ronaldo Lima, Messi been benched regardless of whom the coach is Even Ladan Bosso cant do that.
Yes for tactical and technical reasons e.g fitness,indiscipline e.t.c afterall Ginola and Cantona did not make France's squad

dayokanu:

Imagine comparing Henry a striker to midfielders why didnt you also include that he scored more than Barthez, Deschamps, and Dessailly?
Did you not see Fontaine on that list?? Why not show me the French striker that outscored him in any major tournament instead of playing Baba Ijebu with ma questions

dayokanu:

Etoo won 2 CL as an important player in both. Tell us what Henry won as an important player in his team.
World Cup,Euros,Ligue 1,EPL,La Liga,UCL

dayokanu:

Henry was at his peak and couldnt score against Tony Sylva of Senegal. He became so frustrated he got carded against Uruguay. SImply because Zidane wasnt available.
Zidane had to play against Denmark in crutches because Henry, Vieira, and Pires were so useless
Big players sometimes fail to shine in big tournaments e,g Raul,Van Horseface e.t.c. . .Shyte happens

dayokanu:

Is that the first time? Henry chokes at key moments. In Euro 2000 finals he was busy making back passes to Toldo before Trezegol nailed it.
Did you watch that Final at all?? Henry was arguably the best player in white that day

That's a cold hard fact my brother.He is the complete striker obviously Ronaldo de Lima is in a class of his own but Henry is right behind him then you can start with the Raul's and Sheva's of this world those are consistent players that delivered season after season not a C.Ronaldo that has one great season and then struggles the next

ok. .  since Ronaldo has no glaring goals advantage, how do u account for the massive blowout in the assist department. (YOU CAN'T)

And the fact that while Ronaldo is a fat transvetite chasing playboy in Brazil, Henry is still a vital part of the greatest team in the world, and just copped a treble, with retirement nowhere in sight.

Cantona and Ginola were  thrown out of the french squad because of indiscipline and shitty performances. They did not produce the goods for france when needed so the coach had no other option than to chuck their old lazy asses out and rebuild.
