Poll: Diego Costa the best striker in the world?

[Jdb2005 12]

Am new to this forum and here's my opinion. Strikers are there to score goals and at this moment in time Costa has 8. Ahead of any other striker in a top European league. Is he te most technically gifted striker no, is he the best in the world at the moment for scoring goals Yes.

To have rvp in the poll list quite bamboozling as he's not hit the heights he did a few seasons back and I doubt he will again even and lvg.

Zlatan for a centre forward when on top form is almost unplayable and I'd have loved to have seen him lead our line.

Costa really is an effective fit in team set up like us. Incredible work without the ball and when the chance falls he is absolutely lethal. I don't think there's many better than him.

No he's not the best striker in the world. But I'm damn happy he's wearing a Chelsea shirt!

Suarez by far. What this guy did last season was incredible and maybe,the most impresive season of a ST since brazilian Ronaldo.

Costa due to the nature of his instinctive nature to score, plus his hard work off-the ball, which even though i have watched through YouTube video his eagerness to score a goal through any formal - spectacle or not. After all, it is goal-scoring that makes a striker good or bad. And, atm, Costa is making good on the money we spent!

It's obvious Diego is the best. I mean, no one else can be this good at the age of 46

[Special Juan 28,091]

Right now and based on his impact that he has had, I would say yes.

Just please come back from the International break without any worries please.

This a big fear of mine.

Suarez is unpredictable as hell. Take his crazyness away and he is best striker in the world. But he is what he is.

Rvp and Aguero get injured often, falcao and cavani never reached what was expected and Ibra is ghost in big games.

Strikers like Henry, Drogba, Van Nistelrooy, Raul, Ronaldo are what world class striker is all about. When the shit got real, they did the job. Not spending half season injured or playing in france. And they didnt do it for one or two seasons, but their entire career.

I think football in general become much more advanced and tactical, hence why we dont see as great CBs and strikers nowdays as we saw in past. Messi and Ronaldo are exceptions here.

Agree with the majority of it. However, one major flaw for Henry was his bottleness in finals. Think someone threw a stat at me that he's played in 11 finals and scored 0 goals.

Costa> Aguero>Falcao

RVP is past it. Suarez is the best in the world, he may rival Ronaldo & Messi for the Balon D'or.

Also, No mention of Hugo Sanchez? Surely he's one of the top 15-20 of all time?

5 La Liga titles

5 Pichichi's

1 Euro Golden Boot
