To move on a bit , “unplayable” is a great term at some stages of strikers careers , they are truly lethal and you can see the fear in a defenders eyes regardless of how good they are, at varying times, drogba, rvn , rvp, Suarez Henry et all have all had these patches , but personally , I don’t think he was the greatest striker by any means , but when he was in his stride , no one inspired fear Like a Fernando Torres , quick, string , selfish, direct , I wonder what turned his head from the prize? I’ll see you Torres and raise you Shcevchenko 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pesky1972 4,930 Posted April 10, 2018 Report Share Posted April 10, 2018 Some great strikers on the Prem now, like Kane, Aguero and Salah. But if could pick two I’d probably go with Henry and Shearer, just because they were both so good for so long. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
THE STIFFMEISTER 14,569 Posted April 10, 2018 Report Share Posted April 10, 2018 I wouldn’t say salah was great mate, decent yeas and in great form but great? Les Ferdinand was another one with iconic status in my eyes , if only for the fact he wrecked the blue peter garden!!! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WILF 44,334 Posted April 10, 2018 Report Share Posted April 10, 2018 Aguero is top class.......Salah and Kane are average. You won’t be talking about them in 20 years, guaranteed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

To be a ‘great’ you need to do it for a number of years. There’s been a few one season wonders but my picks done the business for years. If Salah sticks around and scores 30+ for the next 3 seasons he’ll be up there with every player mentioned so far. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

THE STIFFMEISTER 14,569 Posted April 11, 2018 Report Share Posted April 11, 2018 Personally I think cantona Was vastly overrated as a player , iconic and a talented man yes but certainly not a great player by any stretch of the imagination 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
