SAK Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 1 hour ago, healthyaddiction said: 1) when Shearer signed for us he arguably was the best striker in the world. He was literally the world record transfer. 2) Isak is not the best striker in the world. I love him, he's brilliant. But he hasn't even bagged 20 league goals in a season in his career yet. You can't be saying he's the best striker in the world or better than Shearer On point one R9 would beg to differ. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thumbheed Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 1 hour ago, TRC said: I really don't think it is. For us Shearer was never the best striker in the world. I feel Isak is the best striker in the world. I mean even if that was true it was in an era of Ronaldo, Romario, Batistuta, Inzaghi, Del Piero, Vieri, Raul. I could go on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 He’s the cleverest footballer since Beardsley for me but Shearer was the absolute goal machine of his era in English football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goes without saying and I can’t believe this conversation is being had - the highest ever premier league goal scorer, highest ever Newcastle goal scorer and in 1994-95 season alone he scored 34 goals in 42 games and featured in every single game that season, only getting subbed off twice, The man was a machine and there is a reason he was my password to most websites for such a long time.

gjohnson Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 1 hour ago, TRC said: Hes better than Shearer was for us. Hopefully he stays till he retires too. A whole world of nope. He might be a better footballer...but Shearer was a better goalscorer and could score any type of goal....headers, skillful chips, long distance blasters, and took a wicked free kick. Could also drag the whole team to a result no matter how bad we were playing. Isaks bloody good and definitely better in terms of trickery and fast feet but he's got a long way to go before anyone can claim he's been better for us than Shearer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Shearer was like Haaland, except a better footballer and playing for worse sides and still doing it. Even people who compare Kane to Shearer don't have a clue. It's massive recency bias. Shearer was a phenomenon and there was only one better striker in world football at the time and his nickname was literally the phenomenon, R9..... and even he didn't do it as long as Shearer.

Andy Cole is the best goal scorer I've ever seen in a black & white shirt. By your rating of Isak then Cole would be the best in the world if playing now.
