World class to me is someone who would get into any team in the world. Barton is 100% correct as usual, Rooney just is not and never will be world class. The only people who think he is world class are deluded ManU fans.

You're not being sarcastic on that are you...

One is more capable than the other. The other is the saviour of English football.

More capable of what gerrez?

What can either do that the other cant. Very few things.

Very similar players at the end of the day at very similar levels.

If I had to pick, unbiased and based on just this season.... Suarez.

Oh, I bet that hurt didn't it? <laugh> Or has someone hacked your account :huh:

Well like barton you talk ****e.
 
Get some humour

Are you suggesting that we should laugh at your reasoning? (I'd agree with you on that)

Or

Are you suggesting that you put down the SA competitions ridiculously, when in fact you meant to say "Copa America is a very high quality competitive event in a talented football mad region and Suarez accomplished smth Rooney never has with his national team" ? (I'd agree with you on that too)

I was taking the piss.

However the argument is completely irrelevant as they play in difference international tournaments with varying degrees of difficulty.

neither have been stars at a World Cup though and both have big black marks against them at World Cups....... again reinforcing their similarities.

Be reasonable, don't wash out the differences, and admit that Suarez has clearly outclassed Rooney in international tournaments.

And the so-called Suarez black mark from 2010 only adds to it. Ask Uruguay how they perceived it. A martyr's mark - they'll tell you.

They can think whatever they like. It was wrong. Any decent person(s) would agree.

Wrong. Many of us do not accept the verdict as justice and you know it. So are you trying to say that those of us who disagree with you are not decent people?

What verdict?

He used his hands to prevent a goal. Guilty as sin dave.

I guess youre referring to something else.
 
Oh dear, the Manchester Evening News were outraged by Barton's comment and came up with a survey as to how many yoonited players ARE world class.

They closed the survey because they didn't like the answers they got.<laugh>

And?

A number of our players are world class. Some are out of form, something that is temporary.

Lets be honesty here, if Messi, Ronaldo, Suarez etc played for united.... None would be world class.... Apparently

Rooney, De gea, van Persie.

A few others who are off form who would be in the bracket otherwise like mata, Rafael

Mata is of course in his Chelsea days as hes been misused too often by moyes so far.

World class players dont make world class sides though. The league leaders have one world class player but are top.

United had a team for 20 years and won 13 titles. 2 or 3 world class stars in the side for tge most part.

Real Madrid has 1 title in recent times and a team of world class players.
