Yeah....what did he win that year? Premier league? No, champions league?no, fa cup? No, fukk that overated bytch we(manchester united) were aging and he took advantage and he had to be carried by zidane too for france.

Not EVEN trying to Arsenal stan here....but Henry is leading goal scorer on the ONLY undefeated team in PL history. One of the best strikers the EPL has ever seen and totally clinical in front of goal.

There's one thing to say you were rivals and you hated him, but to call him overrated when he was the best striker in Europe for at least three seasons is absurd.

That would be like saying Messi is overrated because he played with Xavi.

Like for real, that was hyper emotional. As a fan of the sport you should be able to recognize the talent in other squads...even rivals.

You say that like Pale, Ruud Gullit, George Weah, Thierry Henry etc haven't been holding it down for years

I don't think one race can "dominate" football globally like that any way

Football is more about skill/endurance unlike basketball which is a burst sport and more top athleticism and height which you have to be born with. European kids have access to better equipment and training fields growing up so they have it a lot easier. Most of the players in the op were born in Europe. If africans had the same conditions they would dominate football more
While true, athleticism is extremely important especially up front and on the wings.

So explain how black brazilians who come fro. The absolute worst of poverty from the favelas are regularly and have been for the past century the most skilled and technical players on the planet. Just stop it. It's more about culture has nothing to do with playing conditions.
What does that have to do with what i said. Yes i know football is heavy in brazilian culture but for every Robinho there's thousands who didnt make it.

All things equal, a kid in Peru or Congo has the same chance of making it as a kid in Germany? :jbhmm:

They are far from being superstars, nobody knows them like that.

:gucci:

Aubmeyang has been the German top flight scoring leader and player of the year. Naby keita is the most expensive african player of all time, took fukkin RB Leipzig to second in the table, UCL qualification and in a public poll was the most desired midfielder in the league. As for mane, are u having a laugh? Anyone that slightly follows the EPL knows mane is a top player. He made the PWA team of the season despite missing significant time with an injury.


:hhh:

Brazil definitely has more passion for football, but Brazil still has better football infrastructure than all of Africa. There are more clubs and organized leagues Brazil who have more scouts in every region bringing these kids to these clubs.

People also need to understand that most of these african countries did not even exist until 50-60 years ago. Their current football federations were literally founded right after colonial independence. Brazil, Argentina, France, Germany etc have been doing it for a long time. These are the OG members of the international football fraternity. They have had a 50-60 year headstart on infrastructure development, domestic leagues etc.
