I think he is currently the best striker in the world, and the best since Marco Van Basten. Its a real shame he won't be able to showcase his talents on the biggest stage of all this summer

Answer = 30 goals this season!

Yeah its a shame he won't be at the World Cup, but I'm glad the Irish are there. Keano deserves to get a chance on the World stage. If the Irish had two good strikers, (I think Keane is decent, but Quinn will struggle to stay fit and I don't think he is an international class striker) they could have done well in Korea/Japan.

Although Van Nistelrooy is a great player, in my opinion he is not the best in the world. Anyone can score goals at Man Utd considering the amount of chances set up for him.

I think this becasue Van Nistelrooy has underperformed when we played our main title contenders. He has only scored against Newcastle in the premiership, not scoring against Leeds, Arsenal, Liverpool (twice), and chelsea.

Although, this is his first season, so it isnt too much of a concern. 30 goals by February is a remarkable feat no matter who you have scored them against.

I must admit I was sceptical about RvN at first, and that scepticism remained for quite some time, as I didn't think his goals were classy enough. I thought he was just in the right place at the right time and just managed to grab a few easy shots. He has proved me wrong though throughout this season, he is a decent player. He does have 'off-days' though.

He is playing the best football I have seen him play in quite some time and with the likes of Giggs, Beckham and Veron creating chance after chance I am sure he will continue to get better and score more goals.

A good striker can pull off a goal from nowhere, with a gret shot or, or a run which splits the defence.

A great striker doesn't have to, because he has the ability to create better chances.

That's one thing I will say about Andy Cole... although his finishing is absolutely terrible, his off the ball work, positioning, and reading of the game are second to none, and net him an excellent goals per game record,despite the number of chances missed. I have no doubt that if he had the finishing of someone like Solsjaer, or Shearer, he'd have been one of the best (if not the best) striker in Europe

All i have to say is he is a great player, just like the Dutch Legend, Van Basten.
