Future Strikers

[blueparrot]

Havertz is the man - play him in a forward position and we will get plenty of goals.

Completely agree and would be my choice. Don’t see a lot of overseas players though and don’t know who’s out there with a similar profile and level if for whatever reason we couldn’t get Havertz.

I mean what strikers in the world have the touch and dribbling of an elite midfielder or winger? It's pretty much only Lewandowski, Aguero, Jesus, Ilicic and maybe Werner. That's 5 names. Do you see how rare it is? That's why it makes much more sense to compare a striker to other strikers when it comes to technical abilties. For a striker, Isak has elite technical traits.

That's utter garbage. The fact you miss Messi, Ronaldo, Suarez, Greizmann, Martinez, Firminho, Mane and Salah all off the list says it all and that's just off the top of my head. Before you say oh but Mane and Salah aren't strikers, we both know they have played through the middle for Liverpool and could very easily play as a striker for any team in the world.

Doku has the touch, dribbling and pace of a winger, reminds me of a young Micheal Owen, far far better than Werner was at that age, would be good for a back up left winger/third choice striker that we are going to need

Messi is a winger/centerforward, Ronaldo could maybe be considered a striker nowadays but he's originally a winger, Suarez is washed up and his dribbling + technique has decreased a lot, Griezmann is a not a striker he's a center forward, Martinez does not have the dribbling or ball control of a elite winger or midfielder, Firmino is a center forward not a striker, Mane is an inside winger and Salah is a inside forward neither are strikers

Congratulations you got 0 out of 8 guesses right and have shown all the fotball positional understanding of a toddler. Want to try again? ;)

I'll let people laugh at how ridiculous that post is, I need say nothing more.

Definitely more likely that people laugh at how stubborn you are while possessing 0 football knowledge outside of city. You write like someone who has never kicked a ball

Haven't watched him play but I've heard he's a top prospect

What’s a striker ? If it isn’t a centre forward or a winger I’m stumped.

The name centre forward is a bit of a giveaway isn't it, someone who plays as a forward in the centre. If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's probably a fucking duck (although Eddy's tattoo or whatever he's called would probably try to call it a swimming chicken).
