Such sophistry. I wasn't being "equally selective" at all as, unlike you, I wasn't arbitrarily excluding certain games from consideration just because they weren't convenient to an agenda I was trying to push. I'm not setting any limits as to what can and cannot be considered here - rather, I was putting forth evidence contrary to your claims - and I'm certainly not trying to push any agenda. I don't particularly like Henry; I just think you're making a really odd argument. Henry's record speaks for itself, even if he had some poor games. It's world-class. I've never denied he might have had some poor games. Every world-class player will. And why exclude the Confederations Cup and group stage to semi-final performances from a proper, all-round international judgment of Henry if you're going to rely solely on qualifying and rare group stage games (plus one second round game and one quarter final) in your international judgment of someone like Shevchenko? Why the double standard? Where's the consistency in your argument?Quote:
