Top 10 Prolific Strikers Who Flop In Big Games by nedu2000(m): 6:28pm On Jul 07, 2015
10. Thiery Henry: FA cup finals 01-06,champ league/worldcup final 2006,worldcup 2002. Scored in a final once in the confederation cup final 2003 vs cameroun while they mourned marc viven-foe
9. Roberto Baggio: painful but the USA '94 penalty miss still haunts we azuzzi fans
8. Edinson Cavani: even with uruguay's successes over the past 5yrs,cavani hasn't played his part,disappears vs formidable opposition at club level
7. Zlatan Ibrahimovic: just seems to flop in the champ league,scored in an el classico though
6. Francesco Totti: hope of a nation in worldcup '02 and euro 2004 flopped,AS roma has got only 1 major trophy in recent history and with good reason,2001 and that was 'cause of the £32m Gabriel batistuta
5. Andy Cole: with just 14caps for england,he simply misses too often,ratio of chances created to convertion is poor
4. Alex del Piero:champ league final '98,france '98,euro 2000 final
3. Dennis Bergkamp: FA cup semis '99 vs man utd,france '98 semis,champ league games
2. David Villa: worldcup final,games vs madrid while at valencia,seems to either flop or gets injured in advanced stages of competitions
1. Gonzalo Higuain:copa america/worldcup finals,champ league win or burst vs Lazio,vs dortmund semis 2013
All great strikers put for some reason mess up in big games

2010?hahahahaha.....baggio,bergkamp were all retired b4 2010,henry killed arsenal numerous times,vs liverpool 2001 FA cup final was the beginning,he missed 3 one-on-ones,arsenal dominated the FA for 5 seasons after that,he failed to provide even an assist in any. 2006 was a story of 2 major competitions-champ league and worldcup final flopped in both.As the heading goes these strikers are made up of ballon'dor winners,club and country legends but they fall short when it truly matters most

What a misadventure! Imagine this dude labeling Henry and Bergkamp flops? Were you watching backs of televisions when these players were starring? Don't be sentimental. Doesn't Ronaldo lose game-changing chances? Messi lost a great chance against Germany last year which should have won them the trophy but he wasn't criticised. my friend. You aren't a good critic

Henry/bergkamp like the other 8 strikers are legendary,they were flops in the most high profile games when the stakes are high,its small wonder arsenal is yet to win the champions' league,holland any trophy and but for the mastery of zinedine zidane so would France.....messi has scored in el'classicos,champ league finals and so has cr7 and no,messi didn't 'ave a clear chance to score vs Germany twas higuain and icardi
