Torres is best forward in world right now easily.
Are you serious? Or are you only counting games played at Anfield as games?

Ronaldo I count as a forward and he's certainly not better than him. Adebayor although not as good a finisher, granted, is a far more complete striker - he's got everything.

A) Ronaldo is a winger. Not a striker. Never has been . Scoring goals doesn't change your position.

B) Adebayor has had 1 good season. And he missed about 100 clear chances last season. Torres was clinical and created chances for his team. He scored in big games against good team. Torress also isnt a complete fuckwit.

I'm not even a liverpool supporter so there is no bias. I think nearly 99% of clubs if you asked them today would prefer Torres

In fact i could think of probably 10 strikers i would prefer over adebayor.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Really? Adebayor is not even remotely as good as Torres right now. Did you notice the games where he went missing? There were plenty. Oh and a good striker wouldn't position his arms to knock the ball into the net (Old Trafford).

LIST OF STRIKER I WOULD BUY BEFORE ADEBAYOR

1.Torres
2. Drogba
3. Van nistelroy
4. Klose
5. Villa
6. Podolski
7. Toni
8. Ibrahimovich
9. robinho
10. Rooney

Not really in any order, and just off the top of my head, i have probably missed some great players.

roflmao Adebayor?

Any semi decent striker can and would get 20 goals playing in his position at Arsenal.
He's average in every sense of the word average...there's nothing special about him.

To be honest i think i would even take Van Persie or to lesser degree Deaduardo over Adebayor.

So he's not even the best at Arsenal imo

Definitely...in RVP's case, a healthy RVP has more talent in the cliched pinky than Adebayor does all up.
And Eduardo is a sick, smooth and talented player. Love watching him play.

Spain were by far the better team all tournament man.

Ballack is great and deserves to win something though, hopefully the champions league and EPL this year

yes i kno spain were better, im just pretending germany deserved to win :p ....yeh torres is a gud player but it just annoys me that a young one like him won the euro when theres players like ballack for example who are getting towards the end of their career and have won shit all for their efforts when they obviously deserve it.....anywho i may just be blabbing on coz im a sore loser and watever, but yeh thats what i feel

That's because Ballack is, and will forever be, a big game bottler.

You've clearly watched a lot of football.

I don't think it was Ballack that missed the game winning penalty in the ECL final.

Pretty sure that was John Terry.

Ballack is no more a bottler then C.Ronaldo
