    Yup, the thing that made me bring this up was watching Henry PL 100 on Sky, you would be amazed how much Bergkamp was involved in his early Arsenal days, as Ive posted there the guy was a genius, also wee pub trivia for you he is named after Dennis Law.

    I've been the only person of my generation, that I've met, that has agreed with this position, lad.

    Not far better, probably not even better but was properly world class and wasn't anything between them as footballers. Henry as a goalscorer was far and away better though

    No question who was the better goal scorer. Van Nistelrooy I would have had before Henry for goals :fear:

    Charlie Nicholas was more talented than Kenny Dalglish.

    Not for all different types of goals, Van Nistelrooy was an incredible player who made the space for himself but more often than not he needed a man to play the ball in. Henry made goals himself as well as feeding off of others.

    All about opinions but when players get to that level there's so little between them I don't think there's a right or wrong answer.

    I always preffered Shevchenko and Hernan Crespo to anyone back then.

    Shevchenko and Crespo aren't as appreciated or recognised as they should be due to the emergence of players like Ronaldo and Messi. They were both world class.

    You know things are changing politically when a Tory Chancellor targets the self employed for a tax hike *. This on top of the SNP's decision to not pass on the increase for higher rate tax just adds to the unfairness.

    They have free reign because labour are so weak. The better off self employed will complain but they will still vote tory over Corbyn.

    I agree with you though, and on the SNP. But I sense on here it is an unpopular opinion.

    Posting my * opinion.

    Godfather 2 is boring and overrated. The first is the best.

    Yer old man's being a hipster then. Dalglish was a world class player at Liverpool. Nicholas was never that.

    Theresa May is doing a better job than Nicola Sturgeon on Brexit.

    Getting the self employed to pay tax in the first place would be a start. :87:

    I know how much tax I paid last tax year :55: this is one 'self employed' who is paying.
    The good news is the chancellor backed down and changed it (NI) :57: The bad news is the SNP haven't (tax) but I will just make a bigger pension contribution.
