As Bobby George said in his interview, it's Mickey Mouse. You know it, I know it, we all know it. A 24 year old MAN, yes MAN who has a tour card, has been on the tour for 5 years playing men, then plays youth and basically steals 10k off school kids. Luke is a great player but if I was him I would be ashamed and embarrassed. I would tell him that to his face too. He knows it's Mickey Mouse bullshit

    Bobby talks sense MVG was BORN to play darts and he’s right...the others are creeping up and Gerwyn Price is one of them. For me Michael is the most talented of ALL time but Taylor is the greatest because of his legacy. You can’t argue with both of their record’s combined. No other players come close to those two.

    Agree with him about the Youth Championships. And not a dig on Humphries, he's a damn good player. But 24 as the cut off age, that's a bit shocking and ridiculous.

    Try and debate this: at any given time, the most dominant, most successful player in that decade is mostly the best player ever. The best player ever is the current dominant no. 1, MVG.
    Now if u say greatest ever, that can only be Phil Taylor.

  • @sg72646
    @sg72646 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Michael Van Gerwen is a great player but Taylor for me is the best there's ever been as his record shows. Van Gerwen is an adrenaline player and as such will find it difficult to maintain such a high standard as he gets older
