Why are you so angry breh? I didnt as much compare them as players as i did their statistical output in the league using games started. In the last two years per game, their average assists per games started (in the league) have been pretty close. Nani only really stood out in that regard in 2010/2011...and Theo was injured for the majority of that campaign. Im not trying to say who is better, because clearly Nani is a more skilled player...but like we were talking about, he needs to do more to be considered world class in my opinion. Alex Hleb was the key pass king back in his last season for Arsenal...but at the end of the day goals and assists is what puts you in that world class category.

Being the best winger in europe doesn't make him world class?


This fukking guy right here :beli:

Nani is second all time in the history of the EPL in minutes played/assists ratio.
