  • Broadly regarded as the world’s most competitive football league in 2022, the English topflight wasn’t always held in this high regard universally. Triggered by United’s ‘99 European treble, this started to change and into the 2000s, England took a step-up in the world-rankings. Boosted by the growing foreign presence, both on the pitch, as well as the side-line, the strength of the teams, made the competition among the top 4 exhilarating and thus viewership increased, becoming more globalised. The noughties belong to the BPL and though the 90s featured a far greater number British forwards, we saw a more interesting class in the following decade so here’s my list ranking the top 10 strikers from the 2000s-era of the Premier League...

    The game is still full of quality players but it feels like the amount of genuine world class players have dropped, in the 90s and 2000s era you could go on and on naming them, in this era you ahve to think harder, the term "world class" gets thrown around very loosely, but I mean genuine world class players

      I think the World football bodies have substituted speed for quality and skill(using a very light Ball),and created a game which totally favors the attacking player,making Defensive skill and ability(which if we go back to the likes of Bobby Moore,Franze Beckenbaur,Franco Barasi,Paul McGrath, Roberto Carlos,Paulo Maldini,Tony Adams,and of course I could add so many more to the list) obsolete!..
      I get the impression they would love to see matches with Tennis match scores showing ,10-8,7-6- or 6-6 draws and successfully convince a certain generation that this so called 'Modern game' is better!...
      And this may surprise some,but I think it's fraudulent BS!.

    @rosss3120 Год назад +18

    Can’t argue with the 10 selected and especially the top 3 mentioned, golden era in a way for the premier league and certainly a lot of nostalgia for myself. Think only thing I would have a tad different is the honourable mentions with a few more included (only issue then is where do you stop) but my personal ones on top of this would be; Berbatov, Crouch, Saha, Yakubu, Beattie, Adebayor and Tevez, Tevez and Berba the obvious two standouts that could argue push the list the closest even with Tevez not playing as an out and out striker. Growing up Robbie Keane was my personal absolute favourite (might have gathered I am a spurs fan by this point) but it’s only a shame he didn’t have more accolades to his name to boost him up but he was a brilliant striker as it is and will always be one of, if not my most, favourite players ever honestly. Lastly just a little mention for Santa Cruz, one truly standout season for Blackburn in the 07/08 season, I absolutely loved him and was a bit gutted it never really worked out at City for him but that team was a fun one to watch with the likes of; Friedel, Samba and Nelsen, Bentley, Pedersen, Tugay and Benni McCarthy.

    Great video. Maybe Adebayor or Berbatov could have been mentioned. As for Rooney he is an underrated legend for sure and I don't think he was overshadowed by Ronaldo as you mentioned at least not in their whole time together. From 2004 to 2006 at least Rooney was better with bigger performances and a bigger name. During 06-07 up until 09 though of course he took a step back to Ronaldo and played a more complementary role. It would be fun and also more intriguing if you made a video about the top 10 strikers of the PL era.

Then from 2005 you all of a sudden Liverpool in the final in 05 and 07, then Manchester United in the final in 08, 09 and 11, Chelsea in 08 and 12 and Arsenal in 06.
