Being a forward is not just about scoring goals. For now, though,forget about pace, strength, creativity, movement and focus solely on players putting the ball in the back of the net.
Who is the best finisher in the world?
Didier Drogba, Pauleta, Theofanis Gekas, Francesco Totti and Ruud van Nistelrooy, Francesco Totti topped the scoring charts in England, France, Germany, Italy and Spain respectively last season, while Cristiano Ronaldo, Emmanuel Adebayor, Fernando Torres, Karim Benzema, Mario Gomez, Luca Toni, Marco Boriello, David Trezeguet, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Luis Fabiano are among the forerunners to succeed them. Is one of these players your pick?

Over d years,i have watchd henry.
Thierry Henry hardly ever misses when he is clean through.
Fernando torres also comes close,but it still early days for him.
But i'll give it to THIERRY HENRY.
Honourable mentions include:
didier drogba
luca toni.
Miroslav Klose
samuel eto'
david villa.

You are the Most Senior Olodo here. We are not talking about strikers here but FINISHER. forget about pace, strength, creativity, movement and focus solely on players putting the ball in the back of the net.

No other striker does it like RUUD VAN NISTELROOY.
He is the best finisher of this generation.

On current form this season i have to leave it between C.Ronaldo and Fernando Torres but if a gun was put to my head i would go for TORRES

Torres,Etoo & probably Owen.

If you mean the greatest finisher of all time,then it would have to be Ronaldo de Lima.
You just need to watch some of his old tapes and you'll not even realize you'd been watching open-mouthed since forever

People are saying Torres and im wondering why. .because of a season performance?
This is the first time hes hitting the 20 goal mark.
why are we mentioning CR-7?
i'll pick those that have been doing it year in year out
Ruud van Nistelrooy
Luca Toni
Huntellar
Didier Drogba.
These to me are the best finishers presently. I can't really pick the best but those above are really good finishers anytime, anyday

@ tkb417,
Dont make me slam your nose with a sledge!!!
Ruud Van Nistelrooy is the best finisher in the world.
He contributes nuthing outside the box but in the 18 yard box. . . .his power n goal sense magnifies by 100000!!!!
Ruud is a proper fox in ther box . . . .He is always the 1st to react to rebounds, stray passes and his the master of one on one with goalie.
His records speak for itself. . . 3 UCL golden boots, 3 different golden boots in England, Spain and Holland.
Need i say more?

TKB417 and Jackal
well said
When it comes to putting the ball in the net, no other player comes close to the RUUUD Boy
that is what he was meant to do in football, him and gerd Muiller of germanysame build
Ronaldo is not even a finisher - most of his goals come from set pieces.

A lot of people don't know the difference. . . .
Van Nistelrooy is a different breed. . . . You might not hear his name in 89 mins. . . .
The only time u hear it, the word GOALLLLLLLLLLL follows.
I am yet to see a better striker in a one on one situation. . . . Ruud always buries the ball!!!!
Science is still figuring how he takes his chances as he can be so lazy outside the 18-yard box but once inside, his ability quadruples.
He is a demon!

@poster,
how come u left TH14 in his days out?
|

LASIEFAIRE (m)

Thierry Henry was a good finisher too, but compared to Van Nistelrooy he is alright.
but as a complete player Ruud doenst come close to Henry
Other finishers i can think of are
Raul Gonzalez
Andy cole
Shearer
Batistuta
bayern munich - brasilian striker his name is eluding me.
|

@ Lasiefarie, Giovanni ELBER is the name eluding u!!! I remember Shevchenko and Rebrov too.  @ Topeprekoy, Henry was a complete player but not the best finisher. His aerial ability is not world class compared to the likes of Batistuta, Bierhoff or Ruud!!! |

u have rebrov there and you're saying TH14 isnt a good finisher? he did most of his scoring with his legs. fine his aerial ability isnt good but his legs were so hot

@ Doyin13, You are a prat!!!!! Finishers are born to take advantage of defenders lacking confidence, jittery goalie, rebounds and ambiguous offside rule!!!! They are ther most important members of any team . . . If only the Gaynners and Pompey had one. . .  @ topeorekoy, A great finisher has to be able to score with all parts of his body. Inzaghi, Ruud, Raul, Etoo, Huntelaar, Ronaldo De Lima and lots more. Be sincere, Henry doesn't come close! |

That sounds gay dude  @ Doyin13, You are a prat!!!!! Finishers are born to take advantage of defenders lacking confidence, jittery goalie, rebounds and ambiguous offside rule!!!! They are ther most important members of any team . . . If only the Gaynners and Pompey had one. . . You are an alangba  @topic Please do not sully the reputation of RONALDO FENOMENO, by calling him a finisher. He is the greatest player ever bar none  |
