I always had slight doubts over Eto'o when he was at Barca. It always seems like he was served chances for fun and that was the reason he scored so many. I said (on here most probably) I doubted he could cope with deep Italian defences and playing in a completely different style of football. He's proven me emphatically wrong.

 

He's done it at a small club helping Mallorca to success in the Copa (scoring 2 in the final), he went to Barca and did it with 2 different successful sides...scoring in 2 Champions League finals. Now he's gone to Inter, is comfortably their best player. Whether it was in a wide position last season or as the figurehead he has just got on with it and performed...time and time again. His goalrecord is exceptional everywhere he's been, not to mention the small fact of 52 international goals.

 

As good as Henry was, Eto'o machine like consistency at the top level puts him ahead of Henry.

Ronaldo's prime was more than 10 years ago though, I had left him out of contention. Rivaldo not a forward either. Face it, no great Brazilian striker for the 2000s ;)

 

Yep, obviously I rate Ronaldo at his best higher than Samuel.

If Zlatan had been more consistent it'd be him i recks.

 

Even as a big Ibrahimovic fan he's alongway off being regarded as one of the best. Ridiculously talented, exceptional domestically but if you fail as consistently as him in the CL you're never going to be regarded as a great.

 

He's still massively underrated on these shores though btw.
