Sheva is better than van Basten (?)

romha2003, you definately made an interesting point with all the statistic. So what's your take? Sheva is better than Marco?

The year milan won the CL 2003, Inzaghi spearheaded the team will his crucial goals that lead the team to Final against Juve. Sheva was injured most of the time that season. So can I say that Milan will win even without Sheva. What's Inzaghi statistic then? I'm sure it is very close to Sheva and Pippo also got more CL goal than Marco?

Those that mean Pippo will be better than Marco if his goal ratio is better? I think if you really do a research you can definately find more than one player whose goals average per game is better than Marco and Sheva. Luca Toni out score everyone in Seria A and he's playing for Fiorentina. So Luca Toni is a better player than Sheva this season?

I had an arguement with one of Man Utd fan who say Ruud Van Nistelrooy is better than Marco once. He said the same thing, RVN had score unbelievable number of goals since joining Man Utd and is MU top scorer in Europe. He keep telling me Ruud statistic is better than Marco. I think by now he had score more goals than Marco in the Dutch national team. I think one of the reason beside RVN is good goal scorer the format of the CL also change. They have to play more games. More games is mean more goals. After all the arguement he still think RVN is better. I think otherwise of course.

And yes Marco played in a great team which is one of the greatest of all time. It always a team game, this team can win anything without Marco, but they are definately a lot more better with him. IMO the figures is important, but more important is the legecy that the player left behind.
