IF he gets the minutes and the service, he’ll bag plenty.

Big IF is that. Especially the minutes. Hasn’t the greatest record from off the bench has Sharp !

Always thought Edwards was a lazy individual, not a team player. Had it not been for Colin Morris' brilliance, he wouldn't have scored as many for us. Knew where the back of the net was though, I'll give him that.

Greaves was just the same.
When he burst into the Chelsea team at the age of 17 he scored a load of goals but the manager Ted Drake thought it might go to his head so he dropped him for 6 weeks. Greaves no doubt seething in the reserves.

On his return to the team he scored 4. He wasn't dropped again.
 
I came on this morning expecting everything to be about bid accepted for Macburnie! But nothing! Arrrr! It drags on!

Maybe there's been a MI5-style assassination on him by the club, following the leaking of information? Gary Sinclair as hitman; weapon of choice 'playing Tom Hark at high volume, on repeat until the perpetrator begs for mercy'.
 

To compare someone from years ago is not really a good barometer of a goal scorer, you’ll always get those from the older generation saying theirs were the best and those from the newer generation saying theirs were the best. It can cause to many arguments and it can’t be proved either way.

Yea alright.
You ever scored a goal? At any level?

My goalscoring record "at any level" stands at 2; one in a 3rd and 4th play-off House match at High Storrs in 1979, when Stephenson House (my team) beat Carey House 3-1. I scored the third and I would have netted the second as well if Phil Storey hadn't stretched out his lanky leg and sliced it into his own net.

My second was for Exiled Internet Blades v Sheffield Internet Blades about 15 years ago. I was in goal for the Exiles but had made it quite clear beforehand that if we got a penalty I was willing to step up and take it as it could be my last chance to score for a team that in any way represented Sheffield United (the bones were already creaking).

We got a penalty and even though Rob who used to be SE1Blade was on a hat-trick, I'm pleased to say that he still bears a grudge to this day, just because my teammates started chanting "Greenwich, Greenwich, Greenwich" (this is all true, sadly) meaning I denied him the chance to take the matchball home by legging it from my area to the opposite one, giving Lun in goal the eyes, and sticking it in the left corner whilst he went the other way. I didn't milk it, instead ran as I hard as I could back to my goal - arms raised, granted - before Rob could get me and give me a good twatting.

I believe Wapping Blade was playing for the Exiles that day too.

Records speak for themselves.
If Greaves was playing today it would be the 2019 version of him, no smoking or drinking and super fit.
Are you suggesting that Don Bradman wasn't comparable with today's cricketers?
