Ibra is taking the piss out of Premier League defenders at retirement age. Anyone who can’t see that is clearly blind or bias, no two ways about it lol.

So rather than discredit him just don’t comment on his form. When you discredit him and make it out as if he’s in anyway comparable to Giroud, you open yourself up to get called out. It’s really that simple.

Fuck Ibra, because fuck him that’s why.
He has as big an ego as Cristiano and is equally brilliant imho, just in different ways. At 35 to be doing what he is doing in the premier league is hugely impressive. As a Swede, forever a hero, but have to hate him while he is a red devil.

Arguably one of the greatest strikers ever from the modern era.

I said Pre Season that he will score 20+ league goals even at the age of 35 and it seems he will do it comfortably. Funny that some people thought moving to the almighty Premier League at that age would be to tough for Zlatan.

He is old…
He is not PL proven…
He is too expensive…
He slows down United’s attack…
People can call him cunt (playing for United), call him mercenary…
In the end, he is still world class.
When he is 40, he can still scare the shit out of a lot of defenders.

On a free might I add.
Premier league proven is such an odd one. Many many many players mention the difference between the premier league and other leagues. However its not exactly something that ends careers.
Its more like a few weeks or months of training and its a non issue.

I pay a lot of respect to him because his willingness to accept new challenge.
If he wanted to, he could stay in France or go to a more inferior league to earn his paycheck; but he did not.
He chose the toughest league in the world instead, at the age of 35, and joined a mediocre team.
Look how many players want to take the easier path and earn some “easy” money…

Has Ibra scored an important goal in a big game yet? Good striker but a flat track bully.

I will never forget that 2012 game vs. Germany in Berlin… Sweden down 4-0 with 30 minutes to go and Ibra gets one back to set them on their way. One of the most incredible comebacks against a supremely talented team to nick a 4-4 draw. Absolutely electric.
Trivia for that game too: two Arsenal players get goals and one gets an assist (Mert, Ozil, and Kjallstrom).

Impressive CV but he is a flat track bully in the Prem.

He’s also only played a limited amount of games in the PL. If you apply the same criteria you do to him to most other strikers in the PL you’ll get a similar result as not everyone started their first 17 games scoring against the top5 teams in the league.

He hasn’t even gotten to play all of the big teams twice yet. And last I checked you get 3 points no matter who you’re scoring against.

Don’t act like you aren’t captain obvious claiming one of the world’s best paid players was in fact one of the world’s better strikers.
BUT United fans claim he slows down their attacks, because, well, he does.
And no he isn’t quite world class, definitely well below the Suarez, Aguero, Messi, CR7, Bale bracket. And Costa is more useful because of his pace
