Pontos Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 Lewandowski, Messi, Suarez, Neymar, Costa, Abaumeyang, Dybala, Higuain, Aguero, Ibtahimovic, Cavani, Giroud, Lukaku, Kane, Hernandez, Benzema, Lacazette, Vardy, Slimani, Tevez, Benteke, Morata, Mandzukic, Icardi, Jonas, Bacca, Rooney, Remy, Sturridge, Dzeko. There's 30 forwards off the top of my head. 1
pash Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 Mitroglou imo is one of the best strikers in the world, top 30 modestly. Hahahahahahahahaha 1
Original 21 Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 ^ Yeah he missed that chance but he scored two other goals and two assists in that game. He's Still better than Mitroglou. I'd say top 50 at most for him. 1

There's 30 forwards off the top of my head. Specifically Strikers* i said. at least 5 of those are wingers eg) Neymar, Messi. Another 5 of those you could argue very similar level. But yeah, looking more critically, you're probably right. There's a shitload of people at a slightly higher level then Mitro. Dzeko in general is probably a bit better then Mitro these days. But an in form Mitro is lethal. Edited February 26, 2016 by georgelaz
georgelaz Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 (edited) Well Suarez is actually a striker, Neymar rotates woth Suarez at the striking position throughout the match, Barcelona basically play with three alternating strikers yeha I made like a million mistakes on my reply i ment messi * lol my brain links suarez - messi - neymar together so much that I brain farted lol Edited February 26, 2016 by georgelaz
georgelaz Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 The best strikers in the world are *always* in form, which he isn't. And not to say the Portuguese league is a padofla league but it's not much better--in Serie A he might do reasonably well, in Germany I think he could do well, but in England, he's just too damn slow. yeah he'd never work in England. Spain he can do 'okay'. I think he would be perfect for Serie A
Greekaroos Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 Mitroglou is currently one of the form strikers in world football. That is CURRENT FORM! Now to become one of best 30 etc he would have to continue his goal scoring form. In saying that you can't continue using his 2014 form where he shouldn't of been playing unfit & injured at Fulham & with Greece at Brazil 2014 as the bases of his quality. Reminder before that injury a bit after the WCQ matches against Romania in 2013 & since recovering from the injury he has been in good form. If Mitroglou was in the current fit, healthy & confident state of mind back in 2014 I believe he would of bagged enough important goals for Fulham to keep them in the EPL & would scored that sitter in front of goal in the last few seconds before extra time for Greece against Costa Rica. 1
Nikitas Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 saudi club al hilal also tried to bring in mitroglou. https://translate.google.nl/translate?hl=nl&sl=pt&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ojogo.pt%2FFutebol%2F1a_liga%2FBenfica%2Finterior.aspx%3Fcontent_id%3D5060441
Akritis_1944 Posted March 15, 2016 Posted March 15, 2016 Great goal. I've never seen him run like that before. The guy is in form. It's official.
Tzatziki Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 I have not seen him play at all but I though Kone did well last WC, he was pretty much our only threat going fwd... he needs to go to a club where he can get consistent starts, the Fiorentina move looks like a horrible decision right now.
pash Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Kone's injury during the cup was a HUGE blow for us. He was easily our best attacker. 1
Argy Posted March 18, 2016 Posted March 18, 2016 Mitroglou and Samaris are in line to face Bayern Munich on April 5th and 13th CL Quarters.
Nikod Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 (edited) A great chance for them to shine against Europe's second best club Edited March 19, 2016 by Nikod
Akritis_1944 Posted March 20, 2016 Posted March 20, 2016 He got a dumb yellow last match. He got booked for taking his shirt off after scoring so got his 5th yellow and missed this recent match. Ohh well, he should be fresh for the internationals this week. 1
Greekaroos Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Mitroglou was celebrating his goal for Benfica against Tondela last week while his coach was giving him a mouth full for getting a yellow card for taking his shirt off. 1
Rockafeller Skank Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 Dont make fun of Yaya Banana however, the guy is actually a good player and key role to Platanias good run this year (by good run I mean , i havent seen the club being so far away from relegation again.)
Nikitas Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 (edited) benfica offered mitro a contract untill 2020 and mitroglou said yes. now only benfica has come to an agreement with fulham to finalize the deal. http://www.sport-fm.gr/article/podosfairo/ekleise-sti-mpenfika-ws-to-2020-o-mitroglou/3152855 Edited March 24, 2016 by Nikitas

Greekaroos Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 Benfica are leading 5-0 against Braga with around 10 minutes remaining. Mitroglou has 2 goals & Samaris 1 so far.
Greekaroos Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 Match finished 5-1. Mitroglou played the full match where Samaris came on as a 65th minute substitute for former Olympiakos team mate Ljubomir Fejsa & scored 7 minutes later.
pash Posted April 1, 2016 Posted April 1, 2016 Yeah he's dominating again by the sounds of things. MIA last week when it matters and scores for fun in Portugal. Typical. Goes back to the tactics and types of players around him at the Ethniki I guess. Sounds to me like he *is* scoring where it matters. 1
Greekaroos Posted April 2, 2016 Posted April 2, 2016 In Australia if you have Foxtel you can watch every Benfica home Primeira Liga match through the Euro Sports channel. Now from what I've seen this season it seems as though at Benfica he has three attacking midfielders like Fortounis whom attack from the midfield, creating space for others like Mitroglou & the other striker Jonas whom become isolated rather than being cramped for space because the midfielder like Tziolis & every attacking midfielder other than Fortounis go side to side & wouldn't know what creative is. At Benfica even Samaris looks more creative as defensive midfielder because the attacking midfielder were busy creating space & attack minded. 2
