They damn sure count the world for Milan. And they count in every statistic. And most certainly in mine. Just like Smith's goals in the CL quali count for you.
That isn't the point. Counting for me or you personally isn't what's at issue when we add up goals. We do not count goals in the qualifiers because some teams and some players do not play in the qualifiers - therefore it isn't objective to include those goals. Jesus, you'd think this was basic common sense but obviously not! Which leads me on to...
You still haven't figured how to apply identical criteria to friend + foe which begs + answers the question whose vacuum between the ears is larger.
Firstly, this sentence doesn't make a scrap of sense. Learn to articulate yourself properly. It's pointless being bi or tri lingual if you just talk rubbish in all 2 or 3 of the languages.
Identical criteria? Back on that again are we? You didn't have a clue how to define that previously - indeed, the only identical criteria whereby we could measure the merits of the 2 players under discussion (goals scored and general performance levels in a range of competitions) disproved the very point you were arguing for. To that, you had no idea how to respond. I find that's a recurring pattern: you say something dogmatic, it gets disproved, you are exposed as someone who simply talks crap. And what have we now? The same sad and confused adolescent blather.
Any point is lost on someone who, due to his bias, is not capable of rating players with some objectivity. A class player would not allow himself to rot on a bench for 2 years, a class player doesn't play his league games half-assedly. Class is not defined by goal tally in an arbitrarily selected competition.
Arbitrarily selected competition? Another phrase of yours which sounds nice but is, in actual fact, complete twaddle.
This arbitrarily selected competition just happens to be the biggest and best in club football. It seperates the men from the boys. I think finishing top scorer in that counts for something. Me biased? Well aren't we all? You try developing a point without bias - I think you'll find it's impossible. You're biased because you refuse to rate a player as class who took his little side to the CL final with his highest goal tally in the competition, limping around on the fact that he didn't score as many in the sodding French league. Dear oh dear.
Morientes didn't allow himself to rot on the bench. He stayed at the club he loves to battle for his place. Who was his replacement, Passion? Ronaldo? He's a bit of a history with injuries hasn't he? So Mori was perfectly justified in staying. And - unsurprisingly - there are 2 elements to your argument (and I use the term merely formally) that don't make sense together:
Mori chose to rot on the bench for 2 seasons
vs
Mori is a limelight player
So why didn't he disappear to any old side in the Champions League 2 seasons earlier then? Duh? Muddled thinking, Passion, unusually.
Sometimes truth is simple: He hasn't fully proved 'class' in a long while.
Sometimes people are simple as well. You'd know that better than most.
Morientes proved his class with some scintillating displays in the CL last year. What would people have said if he scored 30 goals in Ligue 1 and didn't score any and played crap in the CL, causing Monaco to go out in the first stage? You'd be saying "well he couldn't cut it in the CL". Pathetic.
. Bloody rumors.
...but whatever it is,settle it. 
whoever comes will shine .. ( ups better not to talk before
