This dude is unbelievable. In this forum, one of the topics, I remember saying Messi-C.Ronaldo and Ibra is on another level than other players and some of the guys were saying; there are other guys better than him in the world. I laughed at them and I am still laughing.

This dude has great talent. Man, with that height, incredible technique, great football iq. If you haven't seen his goals against England, please click on the link above.

love the overreactors after exhibition games.

Truly remarkable performance and some great goals, and though I don't mean to sound like I'm belittling it in any way, it was against a dreadful English defence.

Still, I agree with you. I feel like he's almost, if not in that upper echelon of players.

there is no other tournament or league that he hasn't proved himself.. What friendly game are you talking about? He has been scoring since he was 20 years old

I would put Zlatan, RVP and Falcao in the same bracket

That was an incredible performance, but I agree with 5DOM. I have him in the same bracket as RVP and Falcao and I would put all 3 of them below Messi and Ronaldo

GOAT, Ibra or Pirlo?

friendly game you posted, genius. which has some of the worst defensive clearances you'll ever see.

sounds about right.

Ibra, Messi and C. Ronaldo are on another level as a striker.

But as a completed player, Ronaldo and Messi are better better and an upper tier.

Ibra is a great player as long as it isn't a big, meaningful, pressure packed game.

He gives you great entertainment value though, both on and off the pitch.

Overreaction after a friendly game...

When you have nothing to say, then it is overreaction

You were comparing him against freaking Thomas Muller.

Off the pitch he is weak but as a player he is the best striker. Way above rvp, falcao, rooney etc.

Falcao has scored like 50 goals in 60 games. Broke the record with most goals scored in an UEFA tournament when he scored 19 with Porto. Has Colombia ranked in the top 10 in Fifa rankings, has Atletico Madrid 2nd on La Liga despite not having another great player next to him other than Arda Turan. To say Zlatan is waay above him is an ignorant thing to say. Same for RVP who is the difference maker in United right now

Phenomenal talent, and on his day you can make a strong argument for him as being on the same level as Messi and C. Ronaldo, no doubt.

Unfortunately, he is not consistent enough to be considered in the same bracket as those players. "His day" is something that doesn't happen often enough for anyone to label him the best in the world. He's almost as likely to remain anonymous for 90 minutes as he is to pull of the kind of brilliance he did yesterday, and the annoying thing is that it isn't because opposing teams can take him out of his game, it's because there are plenty of times when it seems he just can't be arsed. There's a reason why he's never stuck with any team for more than 3 seasons.

I'm having a hard time thinking of another player who woulda tried what Zlatan tried yesterday. Absolutely ridiculous. What a player.

Btw get his book on ITunes. Lol.

with three defenders around him and keeper is positioned much better than the Ibra goal.
