Best finisher

Hernan Crespo in his prime was almost unmarkable. In the blink of an eye there was daylight between him and his marker and in two blinks the ball's in the net. Trezeguet, Inzaghi, (both of them, but moreso Phillipo) Shevchenko, to name a few that haven't been mentioned. Best I've seen with the ball at his feet is Brazilian Ronaldo.
 
Romario in recentish times i'd say.

Further back than him, well, oakiecokie gave the answer.

I also think Gerd Muller would have to be mentioned aswell.
 
In my lifetime? Romario by far. Henry was also sensational in his prime...
Ever? I dunno... Pele or someone similar?
Right now? Messi I'd say. Honourable mentions: Ibra, villa, Aguero, inzhagi...


I forgot, I need to mention Norwegian legend Odd Iversen (look him up on Wikipedia!).
He scored a crazy amount in the 70s. At one point he topped the wish list for Anderlecht, cruyff was number two on the same list...
 
If you're talking premier league you won't find many better natural finishers than Darren Bent or Defoe. Robbie Keane was also clinical in his day.

Or as others have said, Romario. Puskas was probably an immense finisher I imagine.
