Lee Trundle for poor man's Neymar?
The "poor man's" version means not as good.
Trundle's 48 now, so Neymar might be able to keep up.
Ronaldo is a poor man’s Ronaldo
Take the united bias out of it…
Both great players.
But both played the same second striker position in the same league round about the same time for top teams.
And Cantona had a better assist record, and his goal record is almost twice as good.
And he was the catalyst and captain of a multiple title winning sides.
You can potentially argue maybe that Bergkamp was a more graceful or elegant maybe… but a better, more effective player??
Not in the same league.
Cantona gets overlooked so much these days. He was the best player in the league bar none for 4 or 5 years when the prem first started.
I get similarly annoyed when Keane is remembered as merely a hard tacking clogger, rather than the complete midfielder he really was.

Andy Goram was a poor man's Andy Goram
Your claim collapses when only the supposed poor man’s version truly dominated the best league both played in and won 5 league titles in 6 years. Bergkamp’s PL successes were nowhere close - spread out with league’s here and there.
Adama is a poor man’s Valencia imo
And Dan James a poor man's Adama.
Scores that world record fastest winner vs France in 1940. Fast, vertical blizball
Adebayor = middle class Kanu
La Masia have several poor man copies of their own legends, as they have a uniform delevoping system. Example Sergi Samper had a very similar style to Busquets although much inferior. Riqui Puig = poor man Iniesta etc
Ilaix Moriba = poor man’s Pogba

You can't just pick utterly unrelated poor or inconsistent players and compare them to quality ones, there has to be some similarity
New emotes are a poor man's old emotes
