That list was from 2016 lol that's the best I could do. Here fixed. Sorry, can't move shrearer further than that and Benzema and Lewandowski had ballon d'or tier seasons. Sucks he was born in albion or whatever.

Asprilla better striker than Inzaghi, Trezeguet, Kluivert or Zola LMAO Ian Rush, Rummenigge, Klose, Hugo Sanchez, Kempes, Di Natale are missing but Jari Litmanen (WC hero of course) Edilson (a midget with some technique good enough for brazilian league), Barrios, Grafite (one hit wonders you could have picked Ailton or Pizzaro, an overweight Ailton for ex. scored as many goals in Bundesliga as those 2 clowns combined) or fuckin' Nuno Gomes LMAO (who barely scored more than 10 goals against mighty Pacos de Ferreira or Moreirense) God forbid we should forget about them
Joseph Martinez
>not rating Emile Heskey What the fuck us wrong with you
Brayden Sanders
Time is indeed cruel my friend
Aiden Young
>David Villa in the bottom of good tier he deserves to be much higher imo
Ryder Reyes
henry was a choker still, suarez should be on his tier
>Cristiano Ronaldo is a god tier #9 lmao. these brazilian threads need to be stopped at all costs
Aaron Torres
Bebeto should be atleast in the high tier.
John Moore
Very grim
James Bell
If were going to be objective and unbiased, and talking about actual strikers: 1) Suarez 2) Ronaldo (9) 3) Henry
Bentley Kelly
>3rd best scorer in the history of the Champion's League behind the two "god tier" of OP's list >Not in the list
He is inevitable. For this behavior, he'll destroy Brasil at Qatar if they cross his path.
Bentley Mitchell
Where is cavani? I would move forlan to high tier. Two times pichichi in Spain plus golden ball in 2010.
Kayden Harris
and zouma

>suarez in god tier >Romário in very high tier are you retarded?
Jayden Torres
Cannigia was a winger, not a striker
Eli Gutierrez
shearer>>cantona
Easton Martinez
Ronaldo needs his own tier.
Lucas Phillips
>rating eric cantona
Easton Rogers
this, ratking is an excellent striker but having him over romario and on the same level as fatnaldo, rivaldo and van basten is crazy
Austin Nguyen
Putting Ibrahimovic who spent his career smashing it in against farmers and fled proper leagues within about a season above genuinely class strikers is a crime. Might as well be adding Bradley Wright-Philips
Adrian Miller
Suarez is objectively a better, and way more complete striker, than both Van Basten and Romario ever were. And that's without including the drastically higher overall quality of football since those 2's eras. Ronaldo is a different story.
Owen Howard
>no mention of Jimmy Greaves, the leading scorer in European history (pre Messi and Ronaldo)
I know he's a bit of a meme on Yea Forums but how does Lukaku not even get in 'Okay tier'
Bentley Barnes
Van Basten decided literally 4 European cups and 1 Euro. Singlehandedly 1987 1988 1989 1990. Romario got a wc. Was the big man of 1994. Suarez is a handball, neckbiter who is Lewandowski tier, Shearer or Owen for that matter.
Alexander Miller
Ian Rush, good add.
David Jenkins
>ronaldo not even in the top 60 starting to think he was a meme desu
Whats up with all the Hungarians in this list? Was their league rigged or did strikers always play till their retirement and never got substituted
Andrew Perez
they were unironically god tier back in the day, they become shit around the 60s and never recovered
Ian Allen
I know they had their peak in like the 50s as NT and those Real Madrid stars, but still. I see a lot of Hungarian names. Seems like they had longevity in their careers. The Dutch names I see were guys who used to play for 1 domestic team for a long time.
Noah Collins
We're talking about a better individual players, based on their individual talents/skills/capabilities, not team achievements. There are trophyless players who are better, individually, than World Cup players. And going by your logic and rationale, Ronaldo failed at club level as he's only got 1 League title in Europe and no CL. Club football is your primary game, not international tournaments with a fraction of the games. So again, going by your logic and rationale, that's a fail on his part.
Ryan Martin
Suarez never carried a team. Was never nr 1. Van Basten ruled the Euro 88 with a midget country. Scored the winner for Ajax in 87 euro final, was the biggest player in the biggest league late 80s, early 90s and won trophys, being decisive in finals. Won a couple of Ballon Dors. You are the South African with some trauma against the Dutch, you always seeth about us. Dont care really but its obvious. Let the other flags decide. Van Basten or Suarez. Who was god-tier or the better player if you want. Same goes for R9 or Romario. Pure wc legends.
Thomas Smith
Unfortunately for these 2 - and the especially the tryhard pseudo intellect who avoids (You)ing people as a means to avoid a direct confrontation when it gets obvious he doesn't know what he's talking about - there is no such thing as an individual player "carrying" a team, especially at such a high level. It's a very lazy attempt to avoid discussing, again, the individual capabilities/skills/talents of an individual athlete. The same goes when applying team achievements as a means to one up a different athlete when discussing their individual capabilities//skills/talents. No need to drift off beyond that and ramble about offtopic things such as poster flags/countries, again, as a means to avoid getting made a fool of like this. Now let's see you, again, fedora tip another pseudo post about the same 2 exact things you got proven wrong on.
Jason Cook
Maradona
Robert Davis
You are that same guy who thinks WC2010 was a good tournament and the stadiums they build for the cups served a purpose. And are rightfully being used till present day. Also accusing me of pseudo intellect while using words like fedora hat and long ass sentences. It's either you or the Kenyan business student who always cries for African number 10's I dislike the most here.
One's I do like is the Rumanian hateful aspergus picker, Britbong grub posters and DutchobsessedCanadaman.
YOU, MY FRIEND, ARE FULL OF SHIT.
R9 VAN BASTEN ROMARIO
Shitload of other Luis 'Vampiro' Suarez
Nicholas Martin
>Cristiano Ronaldo (as CF)
Cristiano as a striker is nowhere near GOAT tier level. Putting him with those names for his years playing in the middle is just pure fanboy delusion.
Jonathan Gutierrez

Again, another ramble that has nothing to do with the topic of individual striker's talents. Almost schizophrenic at this point.
That's what I mean by pseudo intellect. Somebody who has the brain of a dog. An idea pops into its head, he all of a sudden thinks he's smart, and blurts it out before thinking it over. Now he has nothing after this idea gets addressed and proven wrong. He can't defend the "he literally carried a team!" because that would mean he'd have to concede that the opposition this striker faced was so low quality, that it may very well be considered farmer's tier and not worth taking seriously. He can't defend team achievements, because that would mean that he would have to concede that, overall then, there are players with more team trophies but less individual talent. Unironic brainlet here.
It really is cringe when you realize he's being serious and thinks this le shadowy non (You)ing gimmick of his can "carry" his braindead posts (lol).
