Who is the most "complete striker" in football history?
>>
Alan Shearer (Blackburn)
>>
>>151059378
Ronaldo 9 at Barcelona.

Incidentally, 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
>>
>>151059378
Obviously not the best in history, but for various understandable reasons people sleep on what an absolute weapon of a player Ian Wright was.

Hell 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
>>
>>151059973
This 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
>>
>>151060037
Barcelona should have locked him down on a contract that lasted to the end of time.
>>
>>151059378
Drogba
>>
>>151059674
bobby formino or whatever the council house urchins up north called him, was by his very nature one of most incomplete strikers ever
>>
>>151059854
weird fantasy

>>151059378
Peter Crouch

>>151059378
currently still playing kane

Once injuries took away his burst of acceleration to break away off the shoulder of the defender he became completely useless

In terms of pure talent, Romario
In terms of results on the pitch, it’s between Ronaldo, CR9 and Eto’o

Havent seen anyone better than peak R9. Young Rooney always deserves a mention.
>>
never seen anyone anywhere who rates thierry henry except for arsenal fans
>>
>>151081088
henry is one of the most respected players of his decade
>>
>>151059378
Rooney up there
>>
>>151081157
maybe 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 feets
Suarez is good overall
Crespo
Vieri
Eto'o
Adriano
>>
>>151064661
This. If he was complete, he would have adapted to the loss of pace and continued to be a top level player
>>

R9 at his peak was a fucking menace

even under sbr shearer was amazing. don't think he had a single weakness as a forward. such a shame he never left england.

charlie austin because he carried my team in some old fm

>>151082298
he wasn't very fast, he wasn't a very good play maker, he couldn't pass well, he couldn't dribble very well

Van 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.

Falcao before his injury.

If 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.

Common 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.
