Who would you currently describe as lightning quick. (assuming your not litterally comparing them to lightning)
OMG are you being serious? Why are you posting on the Liverpool board when you quite clearly know nothing about the passion of our club? Stick to the basics that is Man Utd.
Robben, Ronaldo, Navas, Sanchez, Bale, Eto'o etc. They've got explosive pace, Hernandez just doesn't have that for me.
Wait a minute when have I ever compared their careers you bellend? I said they are similar players you thick scouse ****s can't have a proper debate because it has to always be something over Manchester United. This is Hernandez's first season in England, he scored 20 goals. Compare that to Owen's first season out of his own country then how did he do at Madrid? You are the only ones comparing records while the only thing I pointed out was they are both similar players.
5 of them 6 players were at the World Cup last summer. Hernandez was recorded as being faster than all of them
Show me a quote of me mocking the person who thought Owen was better than Hernandez. Thought so Show me the quotes where I say Hernandez SHOULD win the Ballon d'Or. I thought so.
What's your point? That doesn't take into account the fact that some players will play against teams with deep defensive lines meaning you won't get to go into a full sprint, that doesn't take into account that some players will be man marked by 2 or 3 defenders meaning its hard to run into space. Also, do you really think these players are the fastest in the premiership: Mario Balotelli, Nigel Reo-Coker, Brett Emerton, Gary Cahill, Ashley Cole, Diniyar Bilyaletdinov, Chris Smalling, Matthew Etherington, Gareth Bale, Peter Odemwingie, Manuel de Costa, Hugo Rodallega, and Richard Stearman? Because these were the ones who were recorded as running fastest in the premier league last season. Yeah, Brett Emerton is faster than the likes of Rooney, Ashley Young, Agbonlahor etc.
So you don't believe Hernandez is lightning quick? You think he is given more space to run at than a winger or a full back? More distance to cover?
Firstly your assertion that they are both similar players is totally incorrect and if you can't see the difference then its down to your limited appreciation of football. Secondly, it was YOU who brought up the age difference. Thirdly, if you look at Owens starts for Madrid then they don't compare with those of Hernandez so the 20 goal thing is a complete red herring. Fourthly, it may not have penetrated you pea brain but Owen is not liked BY us and that dislike of the player has NOTHING to do with United - that is just a further reason for disliking him more. Finally, considering the tone of all of your posts on this board you would not recognise a proper discussion or debate if it hit you in the face with a wet fish. YOU ARE AND WILL REMAIN A COMPETE AND UTTER DICKHEAD
Goodness me to claim Owen and Hernandez are not similar players is just plain and utter stupidity. It shows your football knowledge (and I use the term loosely) is limited to only Liverpool players. I brought up the age difference when you told me to take a look at their stats. At 22 Owen had been playing in the Premier League for 4 years. Hernandez has come from a different country and managed 20 goals at the best team in the country. So by you comparing them at the age of 22 and noting that Owen had won some poxy awards is a red herring as they're respective careers couldn't have been more different. Owen went to the best team in Spain and failed miserably compared to Hernandez. Considering you claim to be a man of considerable age and yet you use terms like 'pea brain' it shows you are a complete and utter bellend. **Sorry I need to make it bold to show how angry I am** YOU ARE A COMPLETE AND UTTER BELLEND, PEA BRAIN
