6 minutes of extra time. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Does Arsenal have enough in the tank after their Derby shenanigans?!

He's terrible? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) I'd say as an 18yo he did great on his debut. not just because of the goal...

He's been largely unimpressive in every game I've seen him in this year, particularly against Newcastle.

Anyways, FT Arsenal 2-1 United. Congrats to Big Phil on his first Premier League title. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Rooney was far worse. Same for Berbatov.
Same for their CB's.

Yes they all were on their bad day today. but superstars are meant to make the differences on these occasions. shining when your whole teammates are doing great is much easier. winning the games single handedly when your teammates are playing like crap is something I'm still not convinced Ronaldo is capable of.

And Berbatov... seriously, how is that player worth 30 million pound? he's a really smart striker but absolutely lazy! had he put half of the effort Rooney did Man U would have ended up scoring a goal or two.

Well, apparently Tevez is worth £30m too, so in that case, Berbatov for £30m would be a bargain.

What the ****, you just said he scored! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I don't think he was poor, he had a decent game.

He is still young. People expect too much of him. For example, Porty claims he's "clearly the best player in the world". I certainly disagree. He's the best there is when it comes to killing mid/low-quality teams but in my opinion it is in the bigger games where one wins that tag. And in the big games he is not better than the greatest players of this era; Kaka, Messi, Xavi, Ibra, Casillas, ... but he is still 23... I don't remember Zidane being better at this age and he is the best player I've ever seen!

Tevez and Berbatov? I'd give a lot for the Argentinian and I would give **** for Berbatov!

He's on a two year loan at the moment I think, they're going to buy him for £30m afterwards though. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Yes and it was a good goal. Unfortunately when rating players, scoring one goal every now and then and playing shite for the other 95 minutes doesn't usually mean you're any good.

I think this big game thing is inaccurate, as far as I know he has a decent record against the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool, then he scored in the CL Final, not sure what people want from him to be honest. In any case, I don't think it is the big games these stars need to be good in, we know all too well with Milan that it's easy for players to be really up for it in the big games, but it's against the small teams that we've often struggled against, United rarely have that problem with Ronaldo on there team, he shows up for them games.

Decent game? yes. decent game for someone who is to win all the individual awards in one month's time, someone who scored 42 goals last season, someone who is considered by many the best player in world right now, etc.? IMO not at all. he was average like most of his teammates.

And we're talking about now, not 5 years later! I say if he's that good why he fails to make an impact in big games regularly?

Besides Messi is two years younger than Ronaldo and has already shined in many big games.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) You must be joking.

Then you talk about regularly? And then about Messi?
Non sense. Ronaldo is 10 times more regular than Messi will ever be. Messi is as regular as Robben.
