He has collected five prestigious Ballon d'Or awards and countless major trophies over his storied career... read more
The two best strikers are Cristiano and Messi, with a lot of difference with the rest.
Messi scores more goals every year, but the truth is that Cristiano is the most complete striker: passes, heads, shoots from long distance, volleys, dribbles, free kicks, heel-kick, he uses both legs,... He's scored against Barcelona and in every important match.
Cristiano plays for a team whose style isn't ball possession, so he constantly makes 50-60 meters runs with/without the ball, he defends the winger, defends corner kicks, aerial balls...
Messi plays with players like Cesc, Xavi, Busquets, Pedro, Iniesta with a lot of quality in passing, and they all play for him. He also plays very close to the area so he is in the best position to score. Obviously he is fantastic and he is the best playing between lines, and dribbling in short distances, but he recieves a lot of help from the team. He never defends so he doesn't waste energy on it.
Talking about defenders, they defend Cristiano much harder, with agressions. Everything against him is allowed because newspapers say "he is arrogant".
Finally the media is always looking for false conflicts between Cristiano and his club, mates, coach... While Messi is always receiving praises.
Many football professionals admit that, even when Cristiano plays better than Messi, he's not gonna win the golden ball because the advertising around him is not as powerful as it is around Messi

GREAT PLAYER! Everything you need to be a world class player he's got. He can dribble he can shoot he can turn players inside out and he's got one of the cleverest football brains in the game he sees scoring oportunities that other players wouldn't dream of trying and pulls them off LUIS SUAREZ THE FIGHTER THE MAGICIAN THE KING
He is an amazing player, and sometimes he makes defenders look foolish. He scores unbelievable goals from impossible positions for many strikers. He can play as a lone striker, and he has anything one can expect from a striker with the exception of good attitude. I love so much.

Great Player, All the big teams want him like Munich and United but I think he should stay at Dortmund. He can head the ball, he's fast and can also dribble past defenders, his first touch is amazing, lots of power while holding the ball, running or shooting and a very clinical finisher.
Amazing ball control, amazing hold up play... This guy is pure quality! He's one of the only strikers on this list that can actually play without the ball by opening up space for him self and others.
Excelent finisher and has great mobility for a pure striker. Great header and positioning plus great ball control. Has really good power and plays exactly how his position should be played in the dortmund system

This guy is quick, cunning, and puts the ball where the goalie can't get it; easily the best striker on this list.

Rooney is the best because you see him scoring goals with any part of his body his not like messi that only scores goals with his feet. He can do awesome bycicle kicks and headers he can do anything you want him to.
Well, who has been loyal to Man u, who scored a bicycle kick, Wayne Rooney, Van Persie is a close second though

It's not only his scoring, his passing, his vision, but with Messi and the Barcelona team this kid is destined to be one of the best all around player in the game.
Neymar can beat any defender that you put in front of him. He's got speed, accuracy and perfect timing. All he lacks is strngth but other than that he should be top 10
He is my favorite soccer player because of his ball control his amazing goals and especially dribbles
-
Mario Mandzukic
Maybe not the best striker but definitely the most underrated. Very fast for his height and can find the ball with his head in any situation.
Best striker in the world in terms of headers, he's also the best defensive striker. He plays the ball on both sides of the pitch.
He's best defensive striker in world and best in term of headers. Best striker in bundesliga along side lewandowski

Safee Sali
Has yet to prove himself as the best striker in ASEAN football like he used to 3 years ago. Call him what you want, you just can't deny he's the best. Don't forget his spectacular performance against Liverpool where he scored a brace in a matter of 4 minutes...
This guy has totally worked for Malaysia. Please vote

He is not a old fashion striker as Lewandowski or Zlatan, he is more of a wing man but he is deadly comming from the wing, penetrating the center and shooting with an assassin precision. He can use both of his legs, has speed, class, precision... And I think Barca made a mistake when they sold it to Atletico Madrid."El guaje" is and alwasy will be a top class wing-striker.
