Re: Best Striker In Europe? by tkb417(m): 8:21pm On Mar 26, 2009 |
Are u high on drugs??anything to discredit a Pool player will make you feel good shey?. Torres is a better footballer than Villa. |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by Cristalz(f): 8:22pm On Mar 26, 2009 |
David Villa. . .Fernando Torres. . .Karim Benzema. . .Samuel Eto'o. Henry still does his thing now and then. @TKB Torres is totally skilled, but I'd pick Villa over him. Villa is a more complete striker than Torres. . .best summarized way I can put it. |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by tkb417(m): 8:29pm On Mar 26, 2009 |
David Villa. . .Fernando Torres. . .Karim Benzema. . .Samuel Eto'o.i dont like Villa. He reminds me of Morientes Im waiting for the EPL maga that will buy him, then u guys will see the 25th wonder of the world. The guy cant pull the kind weight Torres is pulling presently. Torres is the future of Spain! Potential world foootballer of the year. Even if they dash Villa 2 more legs, he wont win any personal thingy. Torres is a footballer! |

BlueDiva: Spain has always been a striker's haven. The defence of La Liga teams are so poor it's a field day for strikers in Spain. Ruud check, Forlan check, Kanoute check, Guiseppe Rossi check, Henry check, and so on and so forth. They don't have a good defence system down there. . . . . .Imagine Puyol, Cannavaro, Pepe and United's apprentice(Pique) ruling the roost in Spain!!! Tell me Carvalho, Vidic, Skrtel, Gallas and Rio will not be KINGS if they are playing in Spain. tkb417: Nope!! Torres is excellent. He is by far the best out n out striker in the Premiership but David Villa makes him look like an amateur.
Villa is an all rounder. He can pass, create, link the play and score good goals with pristine finishing. tkb417: Villa won the golden boot in Euro 2008. He scored 4 goals in 4 games. . . . . .If he had stayed fit throughout, he woulda scored 7 goals. Villa hasn't failed yet to score 20+ goals for the past 4 seasons in a team as shitty as Valencia. Imagine what he would do at Arsenal or Man Utd. |

@TKB You dislike Morientes? |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by DrKitaun(m): 8:36pm On Mar 26, 2009 |
@Tkb who was Torres before he came to England ? right now Villa is somebody. better established than Torres was . . . Villa is beta ! Torres is made to look so good with the effort of his team mates why wasnt he that good at Athletico ? |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by Sauron1: 8:45pm On Mar 26, 2009 |
Dr Kitaun: At Athletico, Torres had crappy players around him. Even then, he was very good. . . . . .U could tell he would blossom in a good club. Villa in Arsenal would score 40 goals a season. |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by MrCrackles(m): 8:47pm On Mar 26, 2009 |
BlueDiva: D fact that he hez a Chelsea player alone, nullifies him! |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by DrKitaun(m): 8:49pm On Mar 26, 2009 |
now. u get my drift ! Villa would do better playing in the EPL than Torres . . . or does anyone doubt that he arguably in the same class of clinicality with Eduardo ? |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by Sauron1: 8:53pm On Mar 26, 2009 |
Dr Kitaun: He is better than Eduardo in that class sef. Villa is the best in one v one situation. . . . . .He is over-clinical. |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by Nobody: 8:57pm On Mar 26, 2009 |
@ Gaynner, He may be inconsistent, But he's got the 15 goals Not Bendtner, RVP, Vela, Ade. Not even Torres, Shrek, Berbasulk. So live with it |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by DaJunta(m): 9:48pm On Mar 26, 2009 |
TORRES, ETO, VILLA, IBRAHIMOVIC, RUUD VAN, |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by lailai2(m): 12:21am On Mar 27, 2009 |
i tot by now u guys would have acknowledged messi and ronaldo as 'forwards', thats modern football for u @topic eto for sure best strikers definitely in spain i'm not sure the likes of rooney and tevez can be called strikers again, they need a new role tag as modern football demands, probably workers |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by allboyz(m): 10:11am On Mar 27, 2009 |
Villa better than Torres?? Are you high on fake/cheap Ajegunle weed? Its like saying Puis Ikedia is better than Messi because you are patrotic Nigeria. Torres will outplay Villa any day, but hey, Villa is fantastic, Just that Torres is better - i watch both players week in/out |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by tayoccu(m): 11:32am On Mar 27, 2009 |
hey don't have a good defence system down there. . . . . .Imagine Puyol, Cannavaro, Pepe and United's apprentice(Pique) ruling the roost in Spain!!! you forgot to add pascal cygan to the list And why can't the EPLs top scorer be there? nick would have been considered, but the guy's performance is like |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by Bobbyb(m): 11:05am On Mar 28, 2009 |
FERNANDO TORRES i think has been d best striker in d continent 4 d past 18 months, sentiments aside |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by tocdee(m): 11:44am On Mar 28, 2009 |
I'd take Torres over any other striker at the moment. People say that Villa is a more complete striker but I disagree. Torres has a two sweet feet on him and is one of the best headers in Europe. His presence makes defenders falter and is much faster than Villa. however Villa's ball-control is better but face it: great strikers like Raul, Inzaghi, Shevchenko, RVN,etc didn't need exceptional close control but good positioning and swift decisive finishing. Torres can score near-impossible goals and tends to do better in big stages. Villa is a superb player though. P.S; Eto-o deserves a mention too Ibrahimovic could be pathetic in big games. |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by dayokanu(m): 11:49am On Mar 28, 2009 |
Any defender who think he is good should go to Spain. See what they turned World footballer of the year Canavaro into. Fernando what? Etoo deserves a mention? Are you kidding me? Etoo is the best striker in Europe!!!!When Dinho was there people said it was because of Dinho, When he was in Mallorca they said he should come to a big team to prove himself. He did that went to Barca and ruled. Samuel ETOO Is the BEST!!!!!!! |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by Markos23: 12:58pm On Mar 28, 2009 |
Fernando Torres. |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by Nobody: 7:24am On Mar 29, 2009 |
When Torres was @ Athletico,he was surrounded by flops,while Valencia was a better team. @ euro2008,Torres was d main striker & he wasn't given much chance 2 move freely,unlike @ Liverpool.2 me,F Torres is far better than Villa.Torres is da best!!! |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by onyxera(m): 11:14pm On Mar 30, 2009 |
villa is good but torres is a more clinical striker,as 4 best strkers in europe, i would say rooney,torres,ibrahimovic,eto'o |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by tayoccu(m): 3:26pm On Mar 31, 2009 |
my verdict? Fernando el nino torres |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by DrKitaun(m): 6:47pm On Mar 31, 2009 |
@TOPIC DROGBA |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by A40(m): 2:32am On Apr 01, 2009 |
Hmm i would definitely pick Eto'o then Villa and Torres i can't exactly say who is better that's very tough 2 seasons ago i would have given it to Villa hands-down but since Torres came to Liverpool he really really stepped his game up but Villa is a very classy finisher his goal against England is a testament to that fact so in a margin slimmer than Nicole Ritchie i would give it to Villa |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by dayokanu(m): 2:50am On Apr 01, 2009 |
Etoo without any doubt |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by biina: 5:53am On Apr 01, 2009 |
current form: Eto is the clear overall choice Veteran : Del piero Youth: benzema, rooney and higuain |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by Bobbyb(m): 9:32pm On Apr 03, 2009 |
@dayokano whr was Eto'o in d last 18months when FERNANDO+GEE were DEstroying INTER nd REAL, nt 2 forget GERMANY in EURO 2008, lolllll |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by ogazi007(m): 12:02pm On Apr 04, 2009 |
Bobbyb:on current form, who is the best striker in europe? The poster says "on current form,"and besides eto's form in the last two seasons was hampered because of series of injuries he sustained. without setbacks in form of injury,eto is a goal machine.he is a complete striker that has alot of passion for scoring goals like Inzaghi. |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by Jarus(m): 3:35pm On Apr 04, 2009 |
Bobbyb:Eto'o is perhaps the most consistent goal machine in Europe as Henry gradually left the stage. 2004 thru 2006, Eto'o was painting Europe red with goals. Consider this: Season Club Total goals 2002-03 R/Mallorca 19 2003-04 R/Mallorca 21 2004-05 Barca 28 2005-06 Barca 34 2006-07 Barca 13 (injury-hit) 2007-08 Barca 18 (injury-hit) 2008-09 Barca 29 So the last 18 months you are talking about fell into the period injury kept him on and off the game. And for a player that played less than half of what he would have played in a whole season if fit, still having 18 goals return showed his class. And immediately he came back, his scoring boots even got stronger. No disrespect to Villa, Torres, of course. |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by babs787(m): 7:05pm On Apr 04, 2009 |
Eto'o is perhaps the most consistent goal machine in Europe as Henry gradually left the stage. But I love Fernando Torres |
Re: Best Striker In Europe? by jalether(m): 7:36pm On Apr 04, 2009 |
why is diego forlan not being considered, based on current form, i think he is highly under rated, |
