Who is the most "complete striker" in football history?
Alan Shearer (Blackburn)
>>151059378Ronaldo 9 at Barcelona.
>>151059378Incidentally, Henry is a terrible choice for most "complete" striker. He barely ever scored with his head and seemed to disdain tap-ins. He was a freakish combination of a winger's pace with a Number 10's eye for an assist, and he is absolutely one of the best ever, but he was one of the most unconventional top centre forward's there's ever been.
obviously cr7 you hipsters >inb4 nooo he was an inverted flase wingback
>>151059378Obviously not the best in history, but for various understandable reasons people sleep on what an absolute weapon of a player Ian Wright was. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKxqf4m73Kk
roberto firmino
>>151059641Sorry, did you get lost on the way to Instagram?
>>151059725why do you have that picture saved on your machine
>>151059806I am the black man, that's how I know Ronnie takes it up the arse.
Taker is the best pure striker of all time, in any sport.
>>151059883Hell yeah
it could be harry kane actually if you're looking for a pure striker that is able to play all the positions and not relying on a single attribute to be succesful
>>151059973This is actually a very fair shout. Lewandowski too, for similar reasons.
Ronaldo. Pace, power, dribbling, no weak foot. He was a one man army, if only for a brief period. Henry and Suarez are close but Henry didn't have R9's killer instinct and Suarez didn't have the blistering pace of the other two
>>151060037Barcelona should have locked him down on a contract that lasted to the end of time.
>>151059378Drogba
>>151059674bobby formino or whatever the council house urchins up north called him, was by his very nature one of most incomplete strikers ever
>>151059854weird fantasy
>>151059378Peter Crouch
>>151059378currently still playing kane
>>151059378Ibrahimovic
>>151059378Luiz Suarez
>>151059378United van Nistelrooy was a beasthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ybr4N7mTqUI
>>151059378
>>151063255>Owen>completeOnce injuries took away his burst of acceleration to break away off the shoulder of the defender he became completely useless
>>151059378most likely kane
>>151059378I don't know, but certainly not this nigger.

In terms of pure talent, RomarioIn terms of results on the pitch, it’s between Ronaldo, CR9 and Eto’o
>>151059641>>151059806fuck up, sandnigger homo

Van Basten
>>151067530good morning
>>151062002this. proved himself in in prem and leliga
van bastenweahbut obviously answer is Ronaldo Nazario
>>151059378Spiritually and metaphorically, it's me, of course

>>151059378THAT PERSON Welbs
>>151059550Nice post anon
Jermaine Defoe.
>>151059433>>151060037Havent seen anyone better than peak R9. Young Rooney always deserves a mention.
never seen anyone anywhere who rates thierry henry except for arsenal fans
>>151081088henry is one of the most respected players of his decade
>>151059378Rooney up there
>>151081157maybe for france. to me, hes just a guy who scored a lot of meaningless goals vs shitterton fc and got carried by the most stacked barcelona team in history. a cult player at best. not even top 50 striker.
>>151081215>not even top 50 striker.not that i expect you to do it but you cannot possibly name 50 strikers above him thats plain impossible
Forlan is the best of shooting with both feetsSuarez is good overallCrespo VieriEto'oAdriano
>>151064661This. If he was complete, he would have adapted to the loss of pace and continued to be a top level player
>>151059378berbatov
R9 at his peak was a fucking menace
>>151081424higher peak than cr7 imo
>>151081223>cr7>messi>pele>Ronaldo>Romario>gerd muller>Batistuta>Cruyff>Van Basten >Eusebio>Kenny Dalglish>Dennis lawNTA but, I wanted to give it a try. Henry easily makes top 15 and probably makes top 10 desu
>>151081505exactly, thanks
>>151059550A true connoisseur take
Pelé
>>151059378Jon Parkin
>>151059424even under sbr shearer was amazing. don't think he had a single weakness as a forward. such a shame he never left england.
Giroud
charlie austin because he carried my team in some old fm
>>151082298he wasn't very fast, he wasn't a very good play maker, he couldn't pass well, he couldn't dribble very well
>>151081271Van Basten scored overhead kicks with both feet.
>>151059378with him in 98 we would had won the Penta 4 years earlier
>>151060037/thread
>>151059378Not for me, chief.
>>151084138too bad he was injured.Then Brazil would have lost the hunger and England would have won in 2002
>ctrl+f gareth bale>0 results
>>151059378Van Basten, because he had everything. Top level finishing, top level technique and first touch, height, strength, amazing goals at clutch moment (Euro Final), this all while perma injured since Ajax times and retiring at 27.
>>151062001this, he may not be the fastest but can do everything else
>>151059378Falcao before his injury.
>>151081505>strikerIf we're talking about centre forwards then a good few of them did not play centre forward. If striker means kick ball net then you can have it.
Pele
>>151089695Not good in big games
>>151082937Common misconception about Shearer by millenials who only remember his later Newcastle days. For Blackburn and early in his Newcastle career before the knee injuries he was actually fast and could run with the ball
Suarez or R9. He's far from complete but Miroslav Klose is my favorite striker.
>>151068546The Picador of Piacenza
>alan shearerI wonder if anyone will eventually overtake him.
>>151092228i mean it's definitely possible, kane would have done it easily if he had stayed
>>151092228>Jimmy greaves
