Ibrahimovich can't do it in the big games. It's why Italian football watchers rave about him and the rest of us can't believe he's a professional footballer sometimes (we only see him in the CL and Internationals).
His miss last night was the latest example of it. Absolute serial offender in 'big game choking'. Barce will regret that deal.
we'll see by the end of the season. He's not as good as Torres or Eto but he's a top player. With the extra exposure he will get playing for Barcelona people will start to take notice of him this year.
I genuinely think you are blinded by the little snippets you see of some of his showboating.
His touch and some of the things he can do with the ball are fantastic.
But his end product is awful and he has never done anything in the big games.
He will score goals at Barca but any half decent player would.
Eto is definately a better striker, and Eto and money for him was ridiculous.
Jamie Redknapp the other night said i bet when Jose Mourinho was offered the deal he drove Ibrahimovic all the way there.
I bet he would have if he had to.
Indeed it did mate, but it's still retrieveable I think. Just tell everyone what you're on about and we can get the topic back on track.
). The amount of chances Barca create means that eventually he'll get one in but whereas Eto'o was capable of getting two or three in a lot of games I just don't see Ibrahimovic doing that often.
