    In fairness, he gets kicked up in the air every week in La Liga. Just gets up and gets on with it.

    I salute what is clearly an astonishing achievement but Xavi and Iniesta have played a huge part in him achieving it and deserve a lot of credit.

    No one gets kicked anymore, you can't breathe on anyone without it being a free kick now. He's some player though.

    Do expand. It's just a measure of goals in a calendar year, how can it be ********?

    People saying there's no doubt he's the best ever because of this record - don't recall anyone saying Muller was the best before now.

    And calendar year in football means nowt.

    Sorry mate , but I think you will find there are many that hold Muller in extremely high regard in the goal scoring stakes.
    A year is a year , no matter what sport it is, just because you dont like to think about the January to May months of Hill`s tenure, you cannot just say it does not count!

    Haha fair point. I just don't think it means much in the grand scheme of things. Fantastic achievement but means little.

    IMO he is the best player in the world right now but he isn't the best player of all-time in fact I think there is still a little fellow Argie who is still above him in the all time greatest list. Pele still the best for me.

    Not sure how much credit he can get for his goals record when he's never had the opportunity to play against the Super Reds.
