Ronaldo is top dog

We know some people on here love there stats, so here you go

Now the statistics back it up - Cristiano Ronaldo is currently the best player in the Premiership.

The Portuguese winger is ranked in first place in Actim Index's player ratings system.

Ronaldo has been in sensational form this season, prompting assistant manager Carlos Queiroz to comment this week: "Cristiano was born to be the best in the world."

The 21-year-old is the club's top scorer with 13 goals, just one behind Premiership leading scorer, Didier Drogba.

Actim Index, the league’s official statisticians, rank Ronaldo above the Chelsea striker in their ratings system, which awards points for a positive impact on matches.

His figures are impressive. Actim Stats show that this season he has contributed 61 shots on target, 38 tackles, five clearances, seven interceptions, one block, 87 dribbles, 59 crosses and 461 passes in 1,970 minutes of football.

His first-place ranking follows several awards in recognition of his excellent form. He has already earned two Premiership Player of the Month awards this season and was recently given the title of Portugal’s Sportsman of the Year for 2006 ahead of Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho.

Getting annoying isn't it.

Its bad enough having three a day in the off-topic area.

So Rooney is 6th, Finnan is 5th and Lampard is 4th.

Crap list.

Think he means all the Alves stuff.

Finnan - Good
Alves - near enough World Class and would have a greater affect on our attacking play.

Theres no talk of replacing the bloke, just adding another option.

I see Peter "Davros" Ramage has made it into the top 100 of that list.

exactly...

or you could rephrase the above to

why do you want to replace him

O'Shea was high up on the defenders list as well.

Despite playing only a few games, most of them in midfield and being shit all at the same time.

I think numbers 3, 4, 5 and 7 prove how pointless the Actim stats are

*Whispers* "Take the bait, take it!"

Actim Stats are Bullshit.

According to them, Paul "definition of Average" Stalteri was our best player last season. He has yet to start in the league for us this time around.

You should try starting him in goal.
