I'm sure i'm forgetting someone.

You may be thinking what is Messi doing there because he plays wide, but the kid is a goal scorer.

My choice would be either him or Villa, but i have a healthy respect for RvN.

Ruud van Nistelrooy for me. He's the ultimate finisher in my opinion.

Stella Artois

RvN by a country mile.

And I hate the cunt.

Messi because I think he's superb technical skills and he scores easy.

Jesus

van Nistelrooy gets my vote. Great finisher and a good header of the ball.

Van nistelrooy,henry isnt performing yet

I'd say Henry is the best player in the league but as far as putting the ball in the back of the net, how could you not pick van Nistelrooy?

King Henry of course. Van Nistelrooy just happens to be the form player now but on top form, no one can compare.

Even Eto'o could challenge Van Nistelrooy for top spot but once again injuries are doing him bad.

Henry's skill is too natural. The most technically gifted player if you ask me.

Even back in the day he was banging them in.

Ruud is good.
He's old but still performs well.

King Raúl.

It beats me how you can be so biased.

You forget that Van Nistelrooy has been doing it in Holland, England, the Champions League and now Spain. It is hardly form, it's just class.

RVN without a shadow of a Nistelrooy.

Mr Shhh

Hate to say it but RVN. Eto'o and Forlan are very classy as well. Messi can create goals out of nothing. Henry has been a major let down.

Van the man. Unfortunately.

Yossi

Messi is the best player on the list, but van Nistelrooy is the best striker.

Nobody even comes close to Van Nistelrooy unfortunately :no:

Hardly a boy now is he

got to be Ruud Van Nistelrooy the boy is just immense

He can't even dribble :ohmy:

mufcsean

12-12-2007, 16:37

Dribbling isn't a requirement of a striker though

Wan

12-12-2007, 16:39

And finishing also.
If you can dribble but has a poor finished it's no use right?

blob123

:ohmy:
It beats me how you can be so biased.

What are you on about ? Am being objective here. I know RVN has been more consistent but just because Yakubu is more consistent than Ronaldo doesn't make him a better player :lol:

Poor finishing ??? Henry knows of no such thing. Blind, you must be.

12-12-2007, 16:44

You obviously haven't seen him play for Barca then, by the way stop double posting ;) the admins don't approve of it

Lionel Messi.

You may want to add that he's a god that can do no wrong and the best player who ever lived as well? :rolleyes:

*Edit* And back to the topic, it's Vanistelrooy, easily.

Barry

It's not like Van Nistelrooy's only quality is finishing, like some seem to suggest.

Summed up quite nicely , no need for me to say much more really but you can't choose anyone but Ruud as a goalscorer, the man has always been a machine, his records speak for themselves..

It's not like Van Nistelrooy's only quality is finishing, like some seem to suggest.

His best quality is his instinct for knowing how plays will unfold. You don't just happen to be in the right place at the right time, it's not luck. That combined with very good touch and a great shot make him absolutely deadly.

He also scored a great shot from outside the box a few days ago :)

I love how all of the people saluting Van Nistelrooy are for the majority, the ones who said he wasn't really that good, he just scored goals.

Stella Artois

13-12-2007, 21:45

Well a striker is there to score goals, and you can't argue that he isn't one of the very, if not the best at doing so.

His overall game isn't that great though, hence Henry always being better in my eyes.

David Villa.

Calzone

14-12-2007, 01:13

Eto'o without a doubt.

The Stig

14-12-2007, 14:48

I can't believe there's only me who has saud Raul. The guy is a leg-end.

Jesus

14-12-2007, 18:54

I can't seem to find it but in one of last week's or was it this week:unsure: :tongue: (local) papers, the sports headline was RAUL MADRID!

Highway Penguin

Currently? Raul. Van Nistelrooy, Eto'o, Henry, Kanoute, and Villa are also dangerous.

Tamudo can also be a beast on his day, especially against the bigger clubs. :)

Milito should definitely get a mention as well. Not the best, but consistent and deadly.

Munitis, Messi-esque player, is also quite a pacy little bastard. I've always enjoyed watching him play.
