Top strikers in Arsenal history

[Mitch]

After the CB thread I'd thought I do a similar thread to past the time and see peoples opionions.

How do people rate the top 10 or 15 Arsenal srikers they have seen during their time?

 

[Riou]

1. Thierry Henry
2. Robin Van Persie
3. Dennis Bergkamp
4. Jose Antonio Reyes
5. Emmauel Adebayor
6. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
7. Slyvain Wiltord
8. Olivier Giroud/Alexandre Lacazette
10. Nwankwo Kanu

...from my time as a fan, would be different if I saw the likes of Wright and Anelka, plus Bergkamp and Kanu would be higher if I saw more of them, but happy with the list.

Reyes ?

 

[Riou]

Reyes ?

Actually had him in, but took him out cause he was more of a winger...will probably put Jose back in at some point, great little player.

 

[GDeep™]

Henry
Bergkamp
Wright
RvP
Anelka
Adebayor
Aubamayeng
Kanu
Giroud
Lacazette

Mixture of reasons, but totally based on their Arsenal form. Anelka was the most exciting young player I have ever seen, Ade at his peak was better than those I have below him.

RvP ability wise was as good as any but those above him had a bigger impact.

Kanu was a tough one to judge.

Yeah,think that he played as second striker in 2005/06.Should stayed a longer at Arsenal.

Arshavin was also striker in some period at us.When we had too many injuries.

 

[GDeep™]

Reyes and Wiltord I won’t count as strikers, played wide a lot.

 

[GDeep™]

Reyes ?

How can you have Laca over Kanu? Kanu simply a better striker and his impact was bigger.

 

[Moah]

Henry
Bergkamp
Wright
RvP
Anelka
Adebayor
Aubamayeng
Kanu
Giroud
Lacazette

Ade > Auba?

You asked @Riou ?

 

[Notorious Big]

Ade > Auba?

Tough call.

Ade played in much better team and had world class 2007/08 season.Very close in quality.

 

[GDeep™]

Ade > Auba?

Yeah. Overall Auba is better, I would pick Auba if I had to pick one for my team, but at his best I think Ade was better for us - close to Drogba like.

 

[Juan Matas Beard]

Just came to say Anelka was phenomenal. My earliest memories are of him playing.

 

[Riou]

Kanu was amazing from 1999-2000, fell of a bit after the arrival of Henry, plus there was a good chance Kanu was already 35 when he joined us, which would also explain the steep decline

If I saw all of Kanu he would be above loads on my list, top player and a top man too.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

1. Wright
2. Bergkamp
3. Henry
4. Persie
5. Anelka

 

[Notorious Big]

8. Alexandre Lacazette

Your reaction to this mate @hydrofluoric acid

I didn't want to get involved but since you did it. No way Laca belongs on any top list. Not top5, top10, top20 or top50. Bottom5 is more correct.

 

[Riou]

3. Henry

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

Henry is the best for sure but I liked the other character better!

Amazing from 99 to 01 but fell off after Henry came? Henry came in 99 ffs
