So just out of genuine interest... If I now decided to dedicate some time towards looking through stats and statistics from goal scorers from the Romanian, Maltese, Bulgarian and Lithuanian leagues, found youtube clips of some of the strikers and decided to bombard this board with posts of said players suggesting they were better than Charlie Austin, Andre Gray etc etc that people would be ok with that?

I mean it's a public forum and I’m entitled to my opinion right?

Hell yes

[Glevum_Hoop]

Im not being funny but if you make a statement as ridiculous his you leave yourself open to getting shot down. He said this guy is better than andre gray as a statement of fact, which is ridiculous because theres no way he can possibly know that at all.

Are you the opinion police now?

Are you the opinion police now?

Oh put a sock in it mate, stop throwing your toys out. If i said to you that Charlie Austin is complete sh!te and we would be better off signing Modibo Maiga as he would be more prolific, you would 100% be on my back telling me that is utter poo. And you know it. This is the same sort of situation.

What if I had stuck up a video of a young player at Hayes? League is MUCH worse than Scottish Premiership and hardly anyone would know anything about him let alone having seen him.

Weird how he went on to be sold for £6mil, play for England and return as DOF

Never eard of him....fairy story!!

He never said opinion

[EssexR]

Totally agree but the point is there is no problem with the OP suggesting a player from a largely unwatched league.

Also think it's a joke Essex that 1 post constitutes 'bombarding'... Sad really.... Wonder what they made of Saurez when he played for Groningen ... Crap league must equal crap player....NOT!

Never said OP was bombarding. I asked if I started bombarding with posts, what with it being a public forum and the content being my opinion, if it would be tolerated.

And yes wonderful, there have so far been a total of 3 examples spread over a 2 decades concerning players who have played in the Scandinavian leagues that have gone on to do well for themselves. Thats now OGS, Suarez and Henrik Larsson. a grand total of 3.

Exceptions...not the rule.

THANK YOU!

Everybody can have their opinion. It's just when your opinion is utter ######## regarding a player you should expect to be treated with the contempt you deserve for making such ludacris statements.

Are you talking about Luis Suarez? In Scandinavia? When? Come on, you obviously don't even know what Scandinavia is. And there are far more players from those leagues that has done a great job in England. But yes, the leagues in Scandinavia aren't that good. That being said, this player could still be interesting

[EssexR]

Ibra. But to be fair your point stands.

The number count is rising!!! I'll be eating my words soon enough....

[Hove Ranger]

Can a player be objectively "better" than another player or is there always an element of subjectivity?
