"Zlatan Ibrahimovic surpassed 500 goals scored at club level by scoring twice as AC Milan moved back on top of Serie A with a 4-0 win over Crotone.

The Swedish striker, 39, reached the milestone with a shot into the top corner in the first half.

He then tapped in his 501st goal and his 14th in 11 league games this season.

AC moved two points clear of city rivals Inter Milan at the top with 49 points from 21 games."

He certainly isint short on confidence but he is a consistent goal scorer. Over 500 goals now and he has played in mostly top divisions.

Scored more than 1 every 2 games.

Besides Ronnie/Messi and Lewandowski he must be up there with the best of the rest who have played for 10 seasons in top 5 leagues.

Great goalscorer no doubt but I can’t remember one single game in the knock out stages of the Champions League where he had a major influence. Inter Milan won the Champions League the season after he left while Barca were defending Champions when he joined and were only successful again after he left.

True regarding the champions league but he won a lot of league titles and his goals would have contributed to that.
He’s doing it for AC Milan this season.


I know he scored 4 v England but not sure if his record is great in the Major international competitions- Euro/WCs

How would you compare him to Rooney? Better or worse? And say Benzema? As they would have similar goal records

Scored twice for Barca in a 2-2 draw away to Arsenal in the knockout stages of the CL in 2010.

Rooney was a better all round player, Zlatan a better goalscorer.

Benzema made my initial top 5 overrated players.

Well I knew I had missed one performance but then again it’s only Arsenal.

Wha?

In so far as I'm "taking" anything, I'm taking amusement from the way Zlatan is proving his naysayers ever more wrong with every game he plays:

Ah right, the old CL play.

Kevin De Bruyne, for instance, is arguably the best player in the PL and plays for a top PL team which invariably qualifies for the CL, yet he's never won it or even come close, if truth be told.

Here are just some of the awards which show how highly rated he is:

Perhaps he should be required to return all of those until he wins the CL?

Rice is a strange one. At times he looks a quality player, but then there's lots of other times where he looks bang average. Doesn't seem to be much consistency to his game at all.
