Yeah for sure but neither is what Bellingham has done for Madrid

[–] Lutzelien@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

According to Google Shearer had 31 🤔

all time goal scoring record

Shearer has this record. Haaland has the most goals in a season.

An eu4 meme? In my good sports subreddit?

1 game dictates his whole career so far?

Just my opinion, but I don't see him reaching Ronaldo's level.

Purely from a numbers and statistics perspective he might, but there's something about the goats of the game that make you believe anything is possible when they're around. Ronaldo was capable of making something happen out of nothing, whether he got service or not. Until now, I don't think the same can be said about Haaland. I've got nothing tangible to back this up of course, just my thoughts. As for Messi, well yeh that's not a discussion.

Dortmund’s biggest lead of the season was literally two points

I mean, you can argue that Klose was probably one of the best in positioning.

He was always in the right place at the opportune time. That is a skill by itself.

Ronaldo was the best striker with great physicality and great finishing, while Klose was the kind of player that would get you those goals on silly bounces or long crosses.

I dunno...people who watch football? Look at any list of the top players of all time and find the highest one that wasn't technically fantastic. People don't revere only great goalscoring, but great footballers. Pele, R9, Cruyff, Maradona...

Many players have scored a lot of goals. Haaland isn't even as good as Harry Kane at his own job, and Kane does far more besides. He's got a long way to go to be in any conversation as one of the greats.

[–] RespectnConnect@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Nah, Haaland is most definitely a better finisher, but Kane is just a far better all-around player

He is the chosen one who will lead us to the promised land

The whole thing is so dumb. Everybody knows that theoretical throne is open but the two of them reached arguably the highest individual levels that any player has ever hit and maintained it there or abouts for a good 10 years.

You can’t realise something and suddenly hit the levels of the greatest players of all time, they are all obviously trying to reach that but if you could do it by just wanting to then I’m sure we wouldn’t have had to wait 30/50 years to find people capable of competing with pele and Maradona for the title of the best to ever do it.

I've been rooting for him so much.

[–] WhatIsWilsonDoin@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's only appreciated if he continues to back it up. The Bernabeu has even whistled Ronaldo...
