I wonder where his fans were 3 years ago, when most Bayern fans were calling him a choker and a flat track bully. The only guys who support Lewa are glory hunters, because he is currently the best bet to win the BdO'r. In a year or two all the Lewa fans will become Mbappe simps.

Rassvet start saying "we" about RM because of Mbappe would be something.

as a Bayern fan I never rated him much before those 5 goals in 9 minutes, I thought he was another Gomez or Mandzo.
BTW he is still pissing me off with how non clinical can be at times, he misses sitters and than scores a goal from much harder situation. You just get that feeling when he is one on one with keeper he will miss. I think his best attribute by far is offensive awareness not finishing.

He isnt really much better than Mario Gomez. He just has the longevity thing. Gomez from 2010-2013 was a beast. One of the best 9s in the world at that time. Great movement, quick, great in the air, clinical finisher.

This is a pretty good take.

How do you rank him all time? Both within strikers category and as a player. Top 10 striker ever? Top 25 player ever? Or no.

I value your opinion as an actual Bayern fan more than pseudo Bayern cheerleaders like Rassvet

Honestly anyone who puts him outside top10 of at least modern era strikers at this point is a clown. If you expand to all time then could be difficult to squeeze, but I dont like ranking Maradonas vs Messis

The list would be (in no order):

R9
Van Basten
Romario
Gerd Muller
Puskas
Eusebio

The above 6 are easy locks based on their historical significance/pedigree, I would imagine.

Then you have the likes of:

Eto'o
Suarez
Shearer
Henry
Lewa
Benzema
Raul
Karl Heinz Rummenigge
Ian Rush

The question is who of those (amongst others) goes into the remaining 4 slots.

but dont u know, wolfe, around here lewa is considered a second or third-tier striker, owing to his single CL and the fact that he plays for a dominant bayern :pedri:

For me it's a discussion of where you put the time break most of the time and why do it there. I grew to not like talking about players before break of century. But I would probably agree with those you mentioned

In non-particular order these are the only CFs that I have seen play (ergo, not all 'goalscorers', which would rope in all wide forwards into this category)

Diego Milito
Diego Forlan
R9
Lewandowski
Benzema
Suarez
pre-ACL Van Nistelrooy
Eto'o
pre-2010 Torres
Aguero
David Villa
Henry
Drogba
Ibrahimović

And of those R9 and Henry are only 2 I could easily put in top3, 3rd is debatable

honourable mention, at a push since from generation prior, and some not strictly CF as would operate as #10s a lot
Del Piero
Raul
Van Persie
Larsson
Batistuta
Rooney
Crespo
Inzaghi
