Nani vs walcott

last season, in 38 games, walcott managed 13 goals and 10assists, not really a bad tally

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theo_Walcott

However in 48games, nani got 10 goals and 15 assists, again a decent tally

http://www.stretford-end.com/blog/2011/02/luis-nani-201011-statistics-and-indepth-analysis/

However, who was the one who Hansen continuously banged on about? For a player with "no football brain" - to outscore and have a better goal, and assist ratio to games than a player who Hansen described as "sensational" - isnt that a bit unfair on walcott. dont get me wrong nani is a good player, but surely the stats prove walcott is just as good or even better

Now, I know everyone is gunna say stats dont mean a thing and say nani is twice the player, but im just gunna say, prove it. If you honestly think hes so much better then u shud be able to prove it with no problems

Does Nani track back? nope, so thats anotherthing u cant say hes betta than walcott at. Does Nani start crying after getting a cut? Yes.

Dont get too offended man u fans, but stats dont lie and I think its good walcott is developing without the spotlight, it means he can develop at his own game - but I gurantee you, if walcott was at united, EVERYONE wud be raving about him


REAL MEN DONT CRY

What a clown you are.

We don't have to 'prove' anything; we can watch for ourselves who the better player is.

Kleberson has a WC winners medal, Messi doesn't.

By your logic Kleberson>Messi, because stats don't lie!!!

My life is sad

I was dumped in a home and I am 78 and my dreams are about Utd. I love Man Utd and everything is Man Utd.

walcott is a prime example of what we call a headless chicken... runs past players and beats the corner flag.

Erm... sorry to telll you this but Walcott is pretty much ineffective unless he's got the space to run around. His dribbling is pretty poor, passes go astray, runs into defenders. If he's playing on the shoulder of the last defender on the right hand side then id bet my house that he'd go onto score a goal because his composure in the box is pretty good but other than that he can be pretty ineffective. He's wasted as a winger anyway. Should be playing as a striker. An Michael Owen type, Chicharito type.

Nani can pretty much do the lot as a winger. score goals, create goals, can beat a man in a dead ball situation, can play on the counter like walcott does. probably only downsides are that he overreacts too much to challenges and bit greedy sometimes but 18 assists say otherwise

Nani>Walcott.

Let's not forget as well walcott is NOT a winger, but a striker. He's actually being played out of position

Nani got 16 assists in the Premier League alone (offical league stats). IN all comps, he got arouind 20

Anyway, Walcott sturggles to make England's first XI whereas Nani is Portugal's second most influential player

There's simply no comparison. One is a footballer, the other is a sprinter

A sprinter that makes runs from out to in with the perfect timing. Also a sprinter that is deadly infront of goal. When Walcott is one on one with a GK its always a goal. The guy is ice cool infront of goal. The perfect inside forward. Yeah he is just a sprinter that gets goals and assist.
