Patrick Kluivert believes that Newcastle have the best striking stable in The Premiership.

The Dutch international is finding his feet after a summer move from Barcelona and has managed three goals in his last three games.

The former Barca star insists he is enjoying life on Tyneside and feels he has now settled in England, especially on the pitch.

One of the reasons for this is his blossoming partnership with Alan Shearer.

"I feel we are gelling and I feel very positive about the partnership," he stated.

However, Kluivert also paid tribute to fellow strikers Craig Bellamy and Shola Ameobi who, he thinks, provide The Magpies with the best attacking options in the top flight.

"But we also have two excellent strikers in Shola Ameobi and Craig Bellamy," he continued.

"In fact, I believe we have the best four strikers in the Premiership.

"Hopefully all four of us will perform well together when we are given the chance.

"I want to score as many as possible and give 110 per cent in pursuit of Champions League football and a trophy.

"I'm loving life in Newcastle - it's a great place to live and work. The people are very friendly and passionate. They are the best fans I have ever played in front of."

Best striker force my ass. (Before you all start, I'm NOT saying Spurs have the best)

I'd say Chelse have the best strikeforce in the Premiership because of what I've seen from C. Cole and Forsell who can't even break into the Chelsea team.

If Rooney is worth the price that Man United paid for him, then we've got no chance of signing C. Cole.

Quality > Quantity

You can't play more than three of them on the pitch at once. I'd only count the first 4, to be honest; Drogba, Kezmen, Mutu and Gudjohnson, as they are the four that will be playing the striking role over the course of the season.

I'd take Henry, Reyes and Bergkamp, or RVN, Rooney, Saha and Smith over those four in a second.

Erm. He played up front at the end of last season.

Scholes and Giggs have actually played up front on quite a few occasions when needed. While Lampard and Joe Cole will never...Although i'll let you have duff.

Sinama-Pongolle and Smicer.

I think Liverpool have some of the most promising talent for our starting two. But if they're injured, who do we have?

Well, it's certainly good enough to hit 3 goals (even if they were only playing West Brom...). Plus, Kluvert himself got on the score-sheet. Along with Alan Shearer.

To some extent, I can agree with people who believe Patrick Kluivert is one of Europe's most over-rated players; simply living his life on a 'reputation' he was built for himself several years ago, now.

But, I also do not believe that 'building' has finished. With his ever inevitable move to English Football, he will continue to grow. His talents will flourish.
In a young team with Alan Shearer, Graeme Souness could be the right kind of man to kick him back into shape...


Although, undoubtabley, Chelsea have the attacking options far superior to that of any other team in the Premiership; whatever day of the year it may be. :P

ha chelsea by a mile!

Drogba
Kezman
Mutu
Gudjohnsen
Forsell
C.Cole
Robben
Crespo

then:

Duff and J.cole if i do a forest fan and start banging in attacking midfielders, if scholes counts so does lamps.

******waits for everyone to bittch that three are on loan***** they are our players and loaning them out is how we see best to use them but they are still ours and we get to use them as we chose.

Man U have the best strikeforce for me.

Ruud van Nistelrooy, Louis Saha, Wayne Rooney, Alan Smith, Cristiano Ronaldo and Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs in attacking midfield provide for me - the most complete attack in the Premiership.
