He's undoubtably a good player, but the English media over rate him so much.

 

Strikers like Eto'o and Drogba are in a different league to him.

 

He's a different sort of forward to those though, I know this season he's been playing more advanced but he plays just off the striker, that's his best position and always will be.

Theres a massive difference in the way every half decent piece of play is over analysed and commended.

 

The only thing you'll hear about Nani's finish is criticism of the defender's positioning, the good pass, and maybe a comment or two of "good finish" and agreement with that. If it was Rooney on the other hand, youd have heard how the movement was brilliant, how the control and first touch was excellent, how composed he was, how the awareness of the keeper was spot on, how the finish was tremendous, etc etc.

 

Even with the small header you had a whole list of credits poured on him. Anyone else and it would just be ignored (bar others who get wanked over).

Nani was my MOTM yesterday. 2 assists and a goal. Extra points for showboating.

 

Give him a season or two and he'll be the real Ronaldo Mk II - or at least as close as anyone's going to get.
