Europe's top striker right now?

Bit of a debate, but who do you think is the leading striker in Europe right now?

Suarez, Lewandowski, Ibrahimovic, Messi and Ronaldo but to name a few, there are obviously some more star names out there too.

But right now - who would you say is the leading striker in Europe?

Not in a million years is aguero better than ronaldo. Complete biased blinkered opinion if you think he is

Definitely Suarez after last night

A one legged man would have scored four against Norwich last night if afforded the time and space that Suarez was allowed.

2 Martin
24 Bennett
5 Bassong
23 Olsson

useless.

So is that why great players like Messi and Ronaldo score loads of goals, playing against crap defences every week?

I think you are missing or choosing to ignore a valid point!!
Norwich have a terrible defence, Man City scored 7 against the same defence just a few weeks ago so i think that getting carried away by the 4 goals Suarez scored against them may be a bit premature. I would prefer to look at his performances against Man U, Chelsea, Arsenal,Man City for example, those games would give a truer picture of how good he is. Scoring against Norwich at the moment is like shooting fish in a barrel!.

That's silly.

Dirk Kuyt had a good record against the best teams.

He wasn't better than Suarez though.

It's consistency which marks out the best players, not whether they score against the best teams or not. They should score against the best sometimes (and Suarez has against all those teams), but the nature of those games make it virtually impossible to always make an impact.

3 of his goals were magnificent. It's not like he got 3 tap ins after being played onside in an amateur fashion, and a poached goal from closing down the keeper.

Beating the keeper from 40 yards is more down to a goalkeeper error than a "magnificent goal", no keeper worth his salt should be beaten from that distance. I would use the word "magnificent" more sparingly, his second goal was a cracker and could maybe be described as magnificent, the other 2 were 'good' goals.
