If Bale wins this poll then this forum fails spectacularly.

Everyone's going to vote Bale just to **** you off now

Also, no Mata or Sturridge?

Poll added.

Is Mata not classed as a winger?

Also, no Mata or Sturridge?

KNEW someone would ask that

He's (Mata) coming under a different position/role. Sturridge is more of a striker imo.

 

[Viper²]

1. Silva
2. Bale

Bale.

Stupidly quick and a world class cross. Only pathetic finishing has stopped him getting a ridiculous number of assists.

Bale is a left footed, one dimensional primarily wide playing attacker that thinks he is much better than he is.

Sturridge is a left footed, one dimensional primarily wide playing attacker that thinks he is much better than he is.

Already a vote for the OX.....

 

[The_One]

Ben arfa for me, if he was playing for one of the top 4 he'd get a lot more acclaim

Yeah I voted Chamberlain...

Might be a bit silly as its a bit early in his career to be the best in the prem but of the players I'v seen of the last few years I thought he was unbelievable when we had him and its a shame Wenger didn't play him as much this year.

Downing/Lennon over Adam Johnson?
Granted he made 20 starts but scored 7 and got 4 assists and when you consider the team is built around a different style of play/players now it is impressive. Compared to 0 goals and 0 assists of Downing.

Voted Valencia anyway.

Does being one dimensional stop Valencia being good for United?

 

[The_One]

Downing on the shortlist? lol

I think it's the fact Bale doesn't realise he's one-dimensional; when he goes wandering in to the middle in a Van der Vaart-esque fashion it is painful to watch him. He needs to learn to stick to his wing and also realise he isn't that good.

edit: lol at people not realising the sarcastic nomination of Downing...

Downing was there for the lolz

(for the record yes Lennon > Adam Johnson imo)

Bale is a left footed, one dimensional primarily wide playing attacker that thinks he is much better than he is.

Which dimension is that? His pace, dribbling, ball control, finishing, heading, stamina or free kick taking?

No, but that's because Valencia is aware of his limitations and doesn't think he is Ronaldo.
