40 goals a season striker - Are there any?

Shameful thread, we have a brilliant young striker who has scored sixty goals in 88 starts.
That's at least forty goals a season if he starts every game.

If you're reading this Gabriel, I think you're ace and will replace Sergio.
 
Never mind 40, how about we pinch Ronaldo for a season or two and he can get 50 for us. The guy's a freak of nature when it comes to football. Arguably one of the greatest ever players !
 
To score 40+ for us you'd have to be clinical, good in the air and our pen taker.

Lewandowski and Ronaldo would do it easily
Kane would do it if he stayed fit
I reckon Lukaku could do it(look at his international record, 41 goals in 42 games since 2016) but he doesn't suit the rest of Pep's requirements

Don't think Mbappe is there yet(13 in 23 in champs league for PSG and rubbish at pens) and think Haaland would score more for Leicester than he would for us.

Wingers - Messi and Neymar
 
Let's be honest scoring goals are not are problem its stopping them, how many years have we been top scorers

Yes because we smash the shite teams stat paddling. World class Raz is a prime example of this. 1 goal in the league against the scum, none at Anfield,Southampton, one at the Bridge, none at Wembley. The list goes on.
 
Great strikers can create something on their own and score a goal out of nowhere, they get in dangerous positions, link up play, rough up defenders whole day. Gaby does none of these, he doesn't get service as his mates don't trust him unless it's a tap in. Countless examples from last game where he could have taken a better position. Check out my post in players forum where he just stands when Raz wins the ball.
It's always a lonely day for Gabby AND Aguero when the selfish duo of Mahrez and Raz start together.
It looks good on paper but it's our worst lineup by far.
the stats i've posted elsewhere about win percentage in the PL prove it. Now for my own amusement I've compiled the stats for all competitions,
HA! It gets worse! with them starting we are an abysmal 14-7-2, and converting cup games to points they got 44 of 69 possible, 64% 1.9 points per game.
Then with only one or the other starting, mostly Raz, we are 25-4-3, 78 of 96 points possible, 81%. 2.44 points per game.
Basically dropping Marhez gained 17% more points overall and 1/2 a point per game, and our teams goal rate went up 1/2 a goal a game.
no one gets service when those two start, cus there are four teams on the field, City, the opposition, Mahrez, and Sterling all wanting the glory.
your post above is very exaggerated. "Gabby does none of these" wrong. "his mates don't trust him" nope, "countless examples" nice try with your buy off generalization.
And on your one perceived situation from an obviously biased agenda, I have to say, what are you talking about man? In your example Gabby is in the center of the box with a clear sight to goal when Raheem has time to pass, then the next shows Raheem took too long and his pass is blocked, ffs. He also had a clear shot to goal on his right foot, didn't take it, and Silva was in a closer goal scoring position anyways, look at Silva with his arms out begging for the ball, if he has time to do that, Raz has screwed it up on his own. total crap analysis. If you think in any way shape or form that Gabby was the reason for that loss then, whoosh.
