Favourite post-Shearer number 9

[Yorkie]

Tough one for me. I was still a teenager when Martins had it, ie at an age where 'favourite players' were a bit more of a thing, and I bloody loved the lad - but wasn't sorry to see the back of him by the time he went. So that leaves Rondon and Carroll for me, difficult to separate. Probably Rondon.

[joeyt]

Probably Rondon for me too, he was superb last season once he got fit

 

Loved Cisse in that first half season mind. And yeah I loved Martins too when he first joined

[loki679]

There's only one choice.

[Yorkie]

Is there?

[loki679]

For anyone with a functioning brain, yes.  The rest left the atmosphere.

[Wullie]

Cisse

[gdm]

Would have been Carroll had he stayed longer. Likewise Rondon only on loan for a season. So I went Cisse.

 

Pretty desperate bunch tbh considering we had Cole, Ferdinand and Shearer as the 3 before

Orite dickhead

[James]

He never got the number, but Ba

[danny]

Oba for me 

[Mattoon]

I chose Rondon because he was the most complete striker we've had since. Prime Cisse and Carroll were better but subsequent performances have sullied their reputations.

Carroll from August 2010-Jan 2011 was a force of nature and the best on the list. Rondon probably the most likeable.

That Carroll season for me as well.

[Optimistic Nut]

Rondon.

That Carroll season for me as well.

and for me.

[Kanji]

Had a special love for Oba Martins and Cisse but Rondon for me.

Season?

[Rebellious]

Rondon for me.

[David Edgar]

That Cisse half season is the best out of the lot.

[Ketsbaia]

Has to be Cisse, really. That's mine.

[Decky]

Oba or Cisse. We've some great memories of Cisse but he was a bit hit and miss after his first few months. I've better memories of some of Oba's goals but I'm fairly certain we were shite back then too.

[Optimistic Nut]

Won’t forgive Martins for bottling the Stoke away match.

[mighty__mag]

As if Ba and Loic Remy aren't in the list

 

Ba was sensational before Cisse got the central role

 

 

Shit realised, do they have to wear the No.9 or are we talking strikers?

[Dinho lad]

For anyone with a functioning brain, yes.  The rest left the atmosphere.

 

It's about the favourite, not the best.

[Shearergol]

Has to be Cisse, really. That's mine.
