Ankit Pradhan says:

according to shaka, pavard is the best player of all time

Josue Amaya says:

These guys are the definition of contradiction

Samsuddha Majumder says:

He's a scapegoat. He was the only Argentine scoring any goals in 2010 world cup. He scored important knockout goal in the semi-final in 2014 as well. Everyone misses goals, and even the best of strikers miss so called easy chances. He scored in the last minute against Inter in 2017-18 when Napoli was 1 point away and to play later (second last game of serie a) so that's not an important goal then?

So…now that he's retired from internationals, I'm assuming Argentina are going to win every major tournament , yes? Like the 2019 Copa…oh wait, you mean its over and Argentina didn't even get to the finals? Surely, they did better in the 2018 World cup Higuain hardly played then. Oh you mean, they finished worse than 2010 and 2014 where he was a starter…??

I'm mesmerized by the sure belief that English commentators use to say everything and its opposit in a period of a week

HIGUAIN KILLER THE JUVENTUS

Taylan Celik says:

I appreciate his passion and contribution to team but Higuain is not a big game player. WHY?

1. His goal against Inter was very straight forward you don't need any extraordinary skill for that goal it was just a goal.

2. He is always panic when he get the ball inside the box , therefore always try to shot on the target as quickly as he can.
Even if he shots on the target ,he doesn't look at the goalkeeper's position,legs,balance etc …
This is why he has never improved further.

3. his goals entirely dependent on his performance and the quality of the team he is playing for , BUT not on his class.

I respect Inter but they are still improving if Higuain does the same in knock out stages against Barca, Bayern , Liverpool
then i will apologise for my ignorance.

messi magician says:

But I thought he was mentally finished ?
Wow you guys are simply ridiculous.. you change opinions so fast. Shame!

Hin Lam says:

Big game player, 2014 World Cup final wasting chances in a tight situation

King178to says:

Higuaín stayed at Juventus because he wanted to stay and not because no team wanted him! Get your information right, peeps!

King178to says:

I hate it how nobody cares about how they judge nowadays.

A few bad matches: "bad player"
Same player plays good again: "he's extraordinary for his age"

Same thing with teams and managers. For instance, Sarri. So many people said he was not a great manager – especially after the first matches in which Juve didn't play enough "Sarriball". Now that the team plays more and more like the manager wants, the manager is suddenly extraordinary.. ??

My point is: You judge too fast, people!

And what exactly is a big-game-player anyway? I tell you what: if the striker has proven to be amongst the best over the few years, then he's a big player! And he can score in big matches and in every other match as well. There's no rule!

But people change their opinions every day. Incredible the amount of nonsense uttered nowadays – be it by self-called pundits or all those keyboard-heroes on the internet.

JJ Ryan says:

I still can't believe this guy has about 300 club goals. Looks more like a pizza flipper.

Scy11a 87 says:

If higuain is big time player then Argentina and messi will have world cup now. There’s no goat debate anymore.

Ankle Socks says:

Higuain is one of the deadliest finishers the game has ever seen, but his reputation as a big game bottlejob puts a stain on his name.

Sebastian Trotta says:

Ah, yes, big game player. Like a world cup final…

Mr. STEAL YO GURL says:

Inter haven’t been a big club since 2010. Higuaín is good, but this wasn’t a “big game”

Siva 17 says:

Higuaín plays bad they say he's finished or overrated

Higuaín plays good he's a big game player.

Sax3r28 says:

I'm missing something… didn't know I was watching pornhub, all these bitches are hilarious.

Juan Medina says:

Ronaldo-Higuaín-Dybala
… but take Bernandeschi out and put Ramsey in.

Bikash K Rai says:

I question myself ’why do I watch these guys talk’ ?‍♂️

Giovanni Francis says:

Lol we finna forget those 3 straight finals for Argentina

Nina says:

Higuain has more knock out goals than Messi for Argentina. Don’t ever underestimate him. There’s a reason why Ronaldo once said that he looked up to Higuain.
