Ignore them, and they will go away man. The more you retaliate, the more they will provoke. Did you fail psychology class or something?
Confidence and delusion can be a dangerous mix 
I'm liking where this is heading.
TWO Vital and highly significant questions:
1.) Why are we discussing Totti in the EPL thread?
2.) Why is PostIronic (ironically, an objective poster ) being a complete retard and totally subjective (and I am one biased $#@! often times) when it comes to Totti?

I'm the one being subjective though?
I'm the only one who brought a single objective thing into the argument, ie. statistics. I illustrated that when it counts, i.e. in Champion's League, in World Cups, against strong teams like Juve, Totti chokes. Whereas Henry was good in the big moments and has a great CL goalscoring record and same with in Euros and WCs. So please, get off the high horse with subjective stuff, everyone else was just spouting opinion. Clearly Totti is better than Di Natale, but nowhere near as much as certain people here suggest. And to put him on par with Thierry Henry just shows how overrated the guy is by many Italian football fans. It's a fucking joke. And certainly cringeworthy.
Just one example. In Roma's 2000-01 scudetto, against the teams ranked 2-5 in the table at the end of the year, in 8 games, Totti scored 1 goal, and had no assists.
In Arsenal's invincible year 03-04, against the teams ranked 2-5 in the table at the end of the year, in 8 games, Henry scored 8 goals and had 1 assist.
@PostIronic but you cant look only at stats and count how many goals/assists he had especially when comparing a trequatista with a CF (you have a point on the low assists numbers from Totti though) and especially when looking at the competition both had. Totti spent his best years in a mediocre team in, which was for most part of his career, the strongest league in the world, with (which is also important) strongest defenses around. another important thing is this (since youre comparing their Championship years) Serie A 2000/01 >>>>>> EPL 2003/04. the EPL was at its peak between 2006/07 and 2009 and during that period the strongest league around. Henry went to Barcelona in 2007 so he didnt experience such a strong league as Totti did. Totti had to go against teams like us, Milan, Inter, Lazio while the only real competition for Arsenal until Abramovich came was United.
