Cool down man, you are gonna get yourself hurt.
But back to our point, you seem to forget one other possibility. The great talent that in addition, also works very hard and hones his skills to perfection. That is what catches the imagination, and that is what humanity has always admired. Is it cruel? Definitely. But it is what it is...
The average Joe that works very hard and gives his all can be said of any almost infinite number of people around the world in all walks of life, not just football. Are they worthy of high praise? I think not, only their own people (family and friends) will be compelled to recognize their effort. They can have zero claim on universal recognition.
Or to give another, far-fetched example. An average Joe walks up to Adriana Lima and and says: "Adriana, I am willing to do everything for you, take on three jobs, do all the housework, I will be forever faithful, I will give you head for hours on end..."
Will Adriana be compelled to accept him as the man of her life? Self-negating effort may be a remarkably positive attribute, but on its own it cannot stand.

Now I get why everyone claims you to be Ed
Am not saying he's as good as Robben or Sneider obviously but he's a underrated player who trys his best and stands out as a nice guy in a team of cunts :beer2:

ouch! I agree though,the idea that only world class players deserve trophies is absurd.Van Persie might me twice as talented as Kuyt but Kuyt as performed better for Holland than he has.
Id even say limited players and teams (Greece 2004) deserve there glory more because they have to go that extra mile,tactically,mentally and physically

What's your point,I didn't say Kuyts better than Rooney.Actually out of every Liverpool vs United game in the past 4 years Kuyt as played better than him,Rooney always plays shit against Liverpool.
