Ally 0 Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 (edited) Whats all this natural finisher shite that surrounds Fowler about anyway? Does it mean they can do it in their sleep, or that he's been able to score from 30 yards since he was a baby? Surely all good strikers are natural finishers, as its what they've always done.

Raconteur 0 Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 I have to say I've always been a huge Romario fan, but that vid highlighted why he failed so miserably in the diabolically poor Australian League - the searing pace he used to scorch past defenders has deserted him... And while he still has speed of thought and excellent technique it proved of little use to him in a fast and very physical league... Oh, and the small matter that virtually all of the goals on that vid were created by intelligent through balls wouldn't have helped him here - Australia has produced maybe two or three creative players in the last 20 years!

billytray 0 Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 (edited) Hers a list of great finishers:Ian Rush Jimmy Greaves Gary Lineker Mick Quinn Alan Shearer Denis Law Clive Allen Thierry Henry Michael Owen Oleg Blokhin Gerd Muller Paolo Rossi Marco Van Basten But of that list only Wor Al,Henry,Van Basten and Greavesie contributed to a team in other ways.

LooneyToonArmy 0 Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 (edited) Whats all this natural finisher shite that surrounds Fowler about anyway? 100% agree. Every time his name is mentioned they always use the words 'best natural finisher' that they've ever seen Garbage Edited January 21, 2007 by LooneyToonArmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a tired old cliche I agree, but the likes of Fowler ARE natural finishers compared to some strikers, like Martins for example who just isn't and never will be. The likes of Fowler don't even need to look and can finish all manner of strikes effortlessly in the blink of an eye, so I think the description is valid where he is concerned. I don't think it means anything though in the grande scheme of finding the back of the net because Shearer was never described as a natural finisher, yet as we all know, he was in a league of his own when it came to finishing. Anyway natural to me means effortless and you have to admit, Fowler in his pomp put them away in that fashion. Romario was the same. The Shearers worked harder for their goals.

Rob W 0 Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 He misses one of them I love that finish with the laces against Holland in USA '94. Rumminege (sp?) could finish too like, pure class. Rummenigge. They are all no Gerd Müller though. indeed if we're talking "finishers" I htink my list of all time greats would run:- Muller Clough Lineker Greaves at NUFC it would have to be Len White saw them all - but Gerd was sommat else men who seemed to be able to stay totally calm in the mad house of the penalty (or even goal) area and just pop up to bang the ball in interestingly non of them was very fast, or very tall - all about reading the game and keeping a clear head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
