    What are people's thoughts on Shearer's comment about Aguero being the greatest import in EPL History.

    I mean, we already know he is better than Hazard, but has he already earned legendary status? Cause there have been some amazing foreigners who conquered the EPL.


    He's in my top 5.

    1. Henry
    2. Ronaldo.
    3. Bergkamp
    4. Drogba
    5. Aguero

    6. Cantona. He was probably as good or maybe even better than Aguero but I didn't get to watch him in his prime so I don't have as accurate an opinion of him as others.





    71. Bendtner.
    72. Hazard.

    Cant have Drogba in there too many seasons he struggled to get over 10 goals. and Augero has to be either 1 or 2 based on stats alone but Henry number 1 no arguments there. put Cantona in your top 5 and have Zola at 6

    It's a big call by Shearer. Aguero has certainly delivered consistently but I don't see him (rightly or wrongly) in the same tier as those you mention ubt he could easily be considered and likely will once he leaves the Prem. Maybe I think that way because of the reduced amount of football I watch now I've got a young family? Maybe it's because i consumed football by watching the SBS Premier Highlights show when Bergkamp and Henry were playing so their skill is over-glamorised. I've said it before, Bergkamp is my favourite Premier League player (who didn't play for Liverpool). He was brilliant.

    Regardless, I think I agree with your top 4. 5th - Aguero, Suarez, Cech, Van Nistelrooy, Torres... maybe someone from there. It's interesting how the players have all finished and their legacy perhaps increases longer they've been out the game. I know others won't agree, but someone like Sami Hyypia was terrific during his time at Liverpool.

    I didn't recall Drogba's struggles and that surprises me!

    Zola is another name I considered. interesting, but not surprising, how all these names are attackers/strikers

    You are all wrong. Peter Schmeichel is the best ever EPL import.

    Without Zola and Cantona doing what they did, the rest of the blokes on those lists prob wouldn't have ever shown up.

    Dunster has provided a very good contender. I ain't making a definitive pick but Schmeichel was way more influential/successful than Ageuro.



    Plus Arsene Wenger.

    You can stop right there..watching those two together is why I'm an Arsenal fan. Sublime.


    Cantona was amazing to watch too. Totally bonkers at times, but still amazing.

    An import from Scotland would make my top ten, Sir Kenny Dalglish.


    Showing my age, that was not in the EPL, my bad

    This rotational fouling needs to stop and refs need to grow a pair a send people off no matter how early in the game. Ritchie for Newcastle should've been sent off after 2 mins

    Zola
    1000 x times the player than that flog Hazard and still better than Aguero
    Pires
    Viera
    Henry
    Cantona
    Bergkamp
    Van Nistlerooy
    Ginola
    CR7
    Schmeical

    All better than Kun Aguero

    **** I would have David Silva ahead of Aguero


    Alan Shearer must have been smoking a crack pipe when he come up with that one

    I'm confused though. Where has this sudden hatred for Liverpool come from, Stanny??
    Think there is a lot of dislike for Liverpool in general

    How many mods on here support them??
    A few by my counts

    Probably why no one says **** all about them

    Seven full seasons in the prem Augero has over 20 goals 5 of those season even with his injuries so why is Shearer so wrong for suggesting Augero is the best import

    Also need to take into account of time spend in the prem and anyone under 4-5 seasons shouldn't get a mention IMO
