Who is greatest striker ever in his prime?

R_9-Ronaldo · 08-05-2007, 01:20 PM

Still can't belive Drenthe went to Chelsea when Rijkaard told him he would actually get to play in the starting-11 at Barca?

goldenHuddlestone · 08-05-2007, 07:27 PM

Is that a definite now then

R_9-Ronaldo · 08-06-2007, 10:06 AM

well there are more than 10websites claiming that Chelsea signed him for 6.8million, I also saw him wink at Mourinho in the Feyenord v chelsea match.
What do you think of a player who can play Left back, Left midfield, Left front? I rate him very highly

goldenHuddlestone · 08-06-2007, 02:44 PM

you saw him wink?

R_9-Ronaldo · 08-07-2007, 12:24 PM

The commontators were talking about it after the game

goldenHuddlestone · 08-07-2007, 06:51 PM

O thats fair enought then

aisuru · 08-07-2007, 11:31 PM

oh, if the commentators said it, it must be fact!

toonmagic9 · 08-08-2007, 04:46 PM

of course commentators see everything, but only time will tell as a saw a conflicting report saying he was going to madrid, think it was in the sun

goldenHuddlestone · 08-14-2007, 12:55 PM

He does want to go to Real over Chelsea theirs a thread on it in the transfer rumour section

R_9-Ronaldo · 02-23-2008, 09:48 PM

I recently brought a few Dvd's of a young Ronaldo to add to my collection, I simply cannot believe how good he was, off the ball and his immense strength on the ball! he was like what 18 or something at Barca and he throwing around fully grown men like hot-cakes, I'm gonna post up the 1998 uefa cup game where Ronaldo single-handedly won the cup for Inter on youtube if you want the link give me a shout. Also watch his movements off the ball and how he reads the game before he goes in for a dribble, The one thing I find absolutely astonishing is his abillity to dribble at such high HIGH speeds!

gunners123 · 02-24-2008, 03:40 PM

i think is Thierry Henry becouse he is a great player

R_9-Ronaldo · 02-25-2008, 01:12 PM

He was pushed beyond all reason from the age of 17. He was performing, out witting, and out powering fully grown men when he was still a child! He was so good that almost all injuries were forceably played through using means that would be frowned upon in most parts.

If he were here today in the premiership at 18 years of age, and played as hard as he was, they'd be a lynch mob out to get the said club.

Put simply the Power/Pace/Strenght/Finishing ability, are truly unrivalled throughout the game.

Ronaldo in his prime

As Fast as Henry but with Pele like explosiveness.

Most powerful/strongest striker you’ll ever seen

Better Balanced than Diego Maradonna

As skilful on the ball as Zidane

As deft a finisher as Batistuta

I knew something was up when a 17 year old scored 55 goals in 57games 1994

An utter genius. He was miles ahead of any other player in the world when he got his first bad injury. He was barely past 20 and never got to reach his peak. Can you imagine what his peak would have been like had he not got that injury? Scary.
Bobby Robson said that at his prime there wasn't a defender in history that could compete with him.

Jimmy McGrory.
Over the course of his career, he amassed 550 goals in first-class matches, including 410 goals in 408 league games, making him the most prolific scorer in British football history.
