If you expect all Juve fans to blindly say Trez is the best attacker that ever lived then Juve fans would be idiots .
He is the best foreign goalscorer, and that's enough, I think. Nobody will argue about his comparability with Omar Sivori, for example, because nobody saw both regularly. The only way we can know the best GOALSCORER is by numbers.

Just one burning question :

Is Trezeguet The best Striker in the world ?
Is he in the top 5 ?

An honest answer would be appreciated .
There is no objective reply will for your questions. It needs statistical research to know the impact of each one of them on assists, goals, offsides, .........and even rebounds.

I recommend Multiple Regression.

best striker?depends on what you are lookin for, he is by no means teh best all-round forward,henry,drogba,etc are all better all-round players . but best finisher/poacher?hell yes! and the ability to sniff out a chance ina crowded penalty area is a fantasic talent

I think that requires more luck than talent . Maybe you mean he has good reflexes but to actually predict danger in a box ? Not a talent .

So he isn't the best all round striker , and therefore , wouldn't you say that Domenech went for players that are all round strikers , Benzema , Henry etc.. Rather than a one dimensional player like Trez .

I recommend you answer the question and just admit he isn't the best striker .
It's not that difficult .
You , my friend are incapable of admitting such a simple answer . Why ? COuld it be because you are biased ? but wait , you said it wasn't about that .

you. my friend are pig-ignorant! i am not gonna waste my time with this because i think i might try something easier, like getting an immo to integrate into society. to write off trez as one-dimentional and lucky is an insult to the man, his link-up play is superb and his ability to predict danger is a skill that is in short supply

85 appearances and scored 61 times.Then we signed him and after 7 years and 236 appearances he scored 175 goals.For France after 9 years he played 70 times and scored 34 times
leave it man, parantly every goal was just through sheer luck:faq2:

I never said he is the best striker, because simply I don't like to be subjective in my judgement. I said that the whole thing needs statistical research to get the ONLY objective answer. Otherwise, we can post for centuries here without convincing each other because simply, the dialogue won't be based on facts but personal judgements.

Neither me nor you can judge who the better player is without scientific facts.

And that's it.

David Trézéguet has been and still is one of the best strikers in the world. David Trézéguet is without any doubt brilliant.

When one says that Trezeguet does not receive service it does not mean that he has to get tap ins, he just has to receive balls while he's positioned. He's a finisher. When you compare Trezeguet to other forwards you are making a big mistake. Trezeguet does not pull back to take the ball, he does not pressure the defenders to lose the ball because his skill lie elsewhere, he has positioning, he sees the goal better and he simply knows what to do with the ball when he receives it in his favourite zone.

:agree:

His goal against Roma was a perfect example.

A decent cross was put in, but Trez made it look great by anticipating it and so getting there before the defender and then he puts an unstoppable header past the keeper.

There are only maybe another 3 or 4 players in the world that can compete with Trez for the intelligence of penalty box movement and finishing ability.

he is one of the best finishers aroind in the world at the moment. how can u say that he isnt as good as henry or kanota . sure he hardly touches the ball for 90 minutes but he scores crucial goals which may win us the game, say he will do nothing and then come alive.he is also one of the only strikers in the world who will stay with there team when they get relegated and even give up his place in the french side to stay with us when we got relegated. and of course dp.

Wow , I'm shocked . pig-ignorant ? You just called the ability to sniff out danger a skill . It's not . He is one-dimensional , and yes he can get lucky as any other striker could . Why can't you just accept it ? He's great but not the best , the initial argument was if he was the best striker/finisher in the world , not if he was the best danger sniffer . He is not the best . finisher .

Again , I never said he wasn't great , in fact I said he was an excellent striker . But because I say he isn't the best in the world everyone nearly shits himself .
I neer doubted his finishing , but sure Van Nistelrooy , Rooney have excellent finishing too .

It's like you're saying " wait , don't compare him to a forward , it's not his job " then what the hell am I suppossed to compare him to ? Crouch or something ?
Best striker in the world means best forward/finisher/shadow striker ..

Go back a few pages and you'll see .
