Football strikers tier list

[Looks over NT]

Still, top of world class at his peak. Injury ruined him. At his best he stood next to Ronaldo and Messi at the ballandor

I dont think he made the podium. Wasnt he top 10?

Good thread, very high effort

I read everything despite not ever watching football in my entire life, i think i watched maybe half of a match once with my dad..

I like Lewandowski of course because he's the polish GOAT and haaland has a special place in my heart because whenever i posted on social media everyone would flood my comments saying i look like him.

 

[LXR]

Mbappe needs to prove more to be in goat tier. I agree with your placement. I am doubtful about his future though.

 

[EthiopianMaxxer]

my own list:

goat:

-ronaldo
-messi
-lewandowski (robbed of a ballon d'or so he deserves to go here)
-haaland
-suarez
-mbappe

great:

-henry
-aguero
-benzema (not enough goals to be in the goat category)
-ibrahimovic
-kane (could be goat if he wins the champions league and/or world cup)

good:

-cavani
-aubameyang
-higuain
-drogba


mid:

-ollie watkins
-alvarez
-giroud

useless:

-timo werner
-nunez
-hojlund
-torres

drogba only at good? and suarez at goat tier?

 

[BeanCelll]

nunez mid rest is ok

 

[Looks over NT]

drogba only at good? and suarez at goat tier?

Drogba had little talent and barely scored except in one season. As a pure striker, he is nowhere near the strikers in the next tier like aguero and benzema. He won silverware and contributed immensely by scoring in like 6 finals but his lack of goals just let him down. Suarez is goat tier easily. He had a long prime which was ridiculous. I think he scored the most non-penalty goals in a single premier league season

 

[seven?]

lewy and suarez should be in goat category imo

 

[Jason Voorhees]

[SoundnVision]

Bayern will win CL this season then Harry can go on the GOAT list.

 

[iblamechico]

Would Son be in great tier

 

[extractor]

Lewa(His B'dor got cancelled) and Suarez(Golden Boot in Ronaldo Messi era) are easily GOAT tier they were both arguably much better than Benzema

I would say Mbappe is not at his best as solo striker, he is much better when he has someone like Cavani, Giroud or any REAL striker. He is still a great lone striker

This is debatable but, I feel like to get GOAT category for strikers you need to provide more than goals and holdup play, you need to be able to do something special which players like Ronaldo, Messi, Benz, Suarez give you and Haaland simply doesn't

Messi honestly deserves his own tier, he alone can be a whole attack

 

[Saint Casanova]

I dont think he made the podium. Wasnt he top 10?

Top 3 in 2008.

 

[Looks over NT]

Top 3 in 2008.

That was the year liverpool made it to the semis of the champions league and spain wom the euros with torres scoring the winning goal. Makes sense. I was trolling tbh. Hes like below aguero but above giroud

 

[iblamechico]

Would Son be in great tier

Don't just rep me brah it was a question

 

[Saint Casanova]

Don't just rep me brah it was a question

In his very prime yes

 

[cobicado901]

Btw I only properly follow the premier league, laliga, international football games the champions league and sometimes Big games in Bundesliga SO my ranking is based on how I saw them play in those. I don't watch seria a or ligue 1

Useless tier

Rasmus Højlund

View attachment 4289410

70 million pound mistake. Was supposed to solve the striker curse of Man Utd but turned out to be an utter disappointment. He has got the pace to scramble defenders and is relentless with pressing but he always misses. Striker who can't even strike. Got kicked out to Napoli


Timo Werner

View attachment 4289409

Was good at lepzig and transferred to chelsea in 2020 for £40 million pounds but he just couldn't keep up with premier league standards. He always missed. Open nets one on one with goal keepers. Some of his plays genuinely made me question if I was watching the premier league or division 2 football.Used to be main man for Germany but is now firmly useless tier


Mid Tier

Ollie Watkins

View attachment 4289407


Not bad striker when given chance. Main man for Aston Villa. Decent pace, good instincts and is reliable striker but he doesn't have that match winning ability to turn games over. He is decent but needs more fine tuning

Álvaro Morata

View attachment 4289408

The definition of a mid striker. Has played for many big names and has had his moments. Captained spain into becoming champions recently and is a reliable versatile striker but also misses often and doesn't belong in the upper tier strikers in the list

Good tier

Julián Alvarez

View attachment 4289406


Moved to Man City in 2022. Was behind Haaland but was still a good striker. He has good the pace , good instincts and is direct goal line threat with relentless pressing and elite finishing skills. My only gripe with him he is often offside otherwise a very good player imo


Darwin Núñez

View attachment 4289405

A no nonsense striker for Liverpool. Great finishing ability, great pace, good instincts and ability to finish games. Nothing about him is very remarkable but he is an extremely reliable performer and always delivers when he is put on the pitch

Great tier

Robert Lewandowski

View attachment 4289414


Goal scoring machine for over a decade. From himself Dortmund days to bayern to now Barcelona. He always been a very good striker for every team He played. Broke the Bundesliga goals scored in 21/22 and cemented his name as one of the best strikers in the league. At Barcelona He is showing his age but still really good

Kylian Mbappé

View attachment 4289404

Has been the centre of football since he turned 18. Won the world cup for france in 2018 and has already captained France. Amazing striker. Insane pace and ability to score from anywhere even outside the box. World class finishing and golden boots and all the awards and silver ware to boot. One the way to become one of the

Harry Kane

View attachment 4289403


One of my favourite strikes. Carried Tottenham through games countless times. Main man for England and is now in Bundesliga and still performs. One of the best finishers in the world currently. Elite passing ability and instincts to see gaps and scramble defenders He is great bordering on GOAT but lacks the silverware to make him a GOAT.


GOAT tier

Cristiano Ronaldo

View attachment 4289402


Started off as winger in Man Utd and slowly transitioned into the most lethal strikers football has ever seen. I grew up watching him and he is just insane. Header, bicycle kicks, knuckle balls, volleys. He is unstoppable. His numbers at Madrid were just absurd. He scored and found the net everywhere he went Madrid, Juventus, Man Utd again and even now in Al Nassar at the age of 40 he is destroying defenders. Extreme work ethic, freak tier athleticism and insane finishing

Lionel Messi

View attachment 4289401

Not a striker. Plays in the false 9 postion but still extremely dangerous when deployed to lead the line or is on the line. He redefined what it meant to be striker. He is one of those naturally gifted people with the most killer Instinct and vision of the game. Him in his false 9 postion at Barcelona completely dismantled defenses and he has been relentless scoring and play making machine. Also one of the best dribblers in history. If there was one word to describe him play it would be the word "artist". Definitely one of the GOATs of the game.

Karim Benzema

View attachment 4289400


One of the most complete strikers football has ever seen. At Madrid he played second fiddle to Ronaldo scrambling defenders, finding gaps and letting Ronaldo score acting as a support and after he left he dragged real Madrid to their 14th title win. Amazing finishing, amazing pace, full of killer Instinct, direct goal line threat and amazing play maker. Nothing much to say other than he is great in everything. Wish he played more football for France just imagine him, mbappe and Griezmann holy shit. What an attacking squad.


Erling Haaland

View attachment 4289399

He is just 25 and already in the GOAT conversation because of his plays in Man City.. He is tall, brute strength great pace and is currently imo the best finishers in football. Dragged man City to a treble. His positioning surgical, his instinct is pure killer mode. You give him half a yard, and it's over he already found the net. The way he times his runs, bullies defenders, and stays ice cold in front of goal at just 25 is unreal. Definitely is in the GOAT conversation


Agree or disagree? Comment below

Benzema a tier above Harry Kane and Mbappe… lmao. 2022 saved his carrer

 

[Jason Voorhees]

Don't just rep me brah it was a question

Yes

 

[Jason Voorhees]

Benzema a tier above Harry Kane and Mbappe… lmao. 2022 saved his carrer

Benzema deserves it

 

[Aryan Incel]

Imo Morata should be good tier and Nunez should be mid and the rest is perfect
