Well tbh I hadn't actually thought of ten, it was just a figure of speech, but as you've called my bluff, off the top of my head and choosing genuine centre forwards - target men - of (more or less) my era (eg I never saw Nat Lofthouse or Stan Mortensen), in no order:
Didier Drogba NO chance
Luigi Riva (childhood hero)
Christian Vieri NO chance
Gerd Muller
Ivan Zamorano NO chance
John Charles
Cristiano Ronaldo
Zlatan No chance
Pele
and for entirely partisan reasons, Cloughy
The Brazilian Ronaldo may have been as good as some of these but for, relatively, a very short time.
Feel sorry for those who think Ronaldo was better than Romario.Feel sorry for those who didn't get to witness the best centre forward to ever play the game at his peak.
I pity those who think Romario was betterFeel sorry for those who think Ronaldo was better than Romario.![]()
Not much pity there mind.I pity those who think Romario was better
I feel sorry for you mate.I pity those who think Romario was better
I pity you.I feel sorry for you mate.
I don't think Messi and Ronaldo would have done it without each other, almost like two rival boxers needed each other to get betterAt his peak The real Ronaldo was the best for me. He had everything, the pace, power, skill and shooting, pretty much the complete striker.
Mind you, I think history will see Messi and C.Ronaldo as the best ever. It’s unbelievable how they have both kept motivated to score and create as much as they have year after year. Messi will be seen as the greatest imo.
Not much pity there mind.
My favourite thing about battigoal was the power in his shots, Italian football was class at that time, Roberto baggio was on a different level for a little while toIncredible balance for a player of such pace and power, great scoring ratio and I,m not sure I remember him being a penalty take so often either, certainly a great player of his generation,i liked Batigol aswell
You've bo need. I saw them both play.I pity you.
I was at OT and saw the Stratford End give a standing ovation to Stefan Effenburg after he totally dictated a game when Bayern beat you 1-0, was European Cup QF I think, can’t remember the year, talk about pulling the strings one of the best midfield displays i’ve ever seen.In 45 years as a season ticket holder at Old Trafford I only ever once saw the entire stadium rise to applaud an opposition player off....
That was the original Ronaldo.
