DEBATE: Who Is The GOAT Striker? (Ft R9, Henry, Suarez etc) | GOAT Bracket 

I think this is the best episode on SDS....Lyes must now be always our guest he has ball knowledge than any guests that have been on SDS

Fayz with a MOTM performance, that Suarez argument is so spot on

Faysal had one of the greatest performances in SDS history just with that R9 Suarez debate

Please keep Lyes for a lot of the shows, a voice of reason and has immense knowledge of football. Good scouting Sharky

Zlatan has played in 4 different decades is the craziest thing I’ve heard😂 i didnt believe it at first but that shit is true and amazing

Faysal with another MOTM performance on the pod never disappoints

Shoutout to fayzal for giving such a gr8 arguement at the end for suarez .. RESPECT

Idk why Sharky always complains when the videos go for too long. Would love a hour videos tbh. I know its long and they are busy, but rather fully detailed videos than 30 mins rushed

I'm kinda with Faysal tbh, look at Suarez's body of work. 2nd most assists of all time behind only Messi, shows how good he is creatively and linking up play. I've never seen a striker with that much talent work as hard off the ball as him either, which imo is an underrated attribute. Then talk about his goals, won the european golden boot 2 times in the Messi and Ronaldo era. 351 league goals in 538 league games, which is a great ratio, R9 had 280 in 384, which is a slightly better ratio but add the assists I think Suarez wins on the stats. However, if you talk about best league goalscoring season Suarez scored 40 in 35 games in 15/16, which is unreal. R9's best is 34 in 37 in 96/97 for Barca, which is incredible numbers but scoring over a goal a game is insane, so best season I think you have to give it to Suarez. Now trophies, of course the World Cups for R9 are huge, I get that, but no CL is a big one against R9, Suarez won the treble, has an international trophy, albeit not as good a competition, of course. However, it isn't Suarez's fault he's not Brazilian. Though that doesn't take away from how insane R9's international career was. You mention Ballon d'or for R9 which is fair, but I believe if you take Messi and Ronaldo away Suarez wins at least 1. Main reason he didn't in 2014 was cuz he bit Chiellini so bad PR. So yeah, it's really close, I think if you go peak you go R9, but if you go whole career you take Suarez, just my opinion.

It’s crazy to think Barcelona had most of these player’s Suarez, R9, Henry, Zlatan, Eto, Lewandowski, Aguero,

Big up lyes. Better ball knowledge than other guests. Plus his amazing accent and chemistry with Faysal

Fayz and starz have the best chemistry their vibes are actually unmatched from sds euro talk to this 🐐🐐

Takeaways from this episode: Lyes knows ballll Faysal killed Starz in the Suarez R9 debate even wether you agree with him or not I personally would say R9 but Starz points during that debate weren’t it😭😭

Lyes has been great imo, as an American I love to hear another American providing quality contributions to the pod

As much as I like SDS the disrespect to Lewandowski is crazy in this one: the man almost single handedly led Dortmund to a champions league final, broke the record of most bundesliga goals in a season, and is 3rd highest on the ALL TIME champions league top scorers list, while Eto’o is not even top 20 (keep in mind this is a top strikers ranking not a top attackers)…smh

Rooney played with so many different front threes. Tevez, Berbatov, Van Persie, Chichrito, Nani and Ronaldo. Benzema had Ronaldo, Di Maria, Bale. I’m taking Rooney over Benzema.

faysal is right about suarez. even tho this wasn’t really brought up, many peoples argument against suarez is his ucl career. the only time he played for a european giant when they were on top was at barca. ajax weren’t great and suarez only played ucl with them for 1 season. in that season, suarez had 4 g/a in 5 games. if counting qualifiers and the one ucl season he had at ajax, he had 9 g/a in 11 games. liverpool weren’t even in ucl when he played for them. as soon as he got to barca, he hit the ground running in the ucl, but after 2016/17, his prime was fading and he started his descent, but he was still great at barca. at barca, he had 47 g/a in 55 games in the ucl. that’s a g/a every 85 minutes(i did the math based off of minutes played, rather than games played). with atletico, his ucl record was awful, even in his first season at atletico, but after that first season at atletico, he was already finished and ready to go to south america. i have to mention atletico are terrorists who park the bus, especially in ucl, so that didn’t help suarez. all in all, it’s all about timing, and in this case, you can’t put his ucl record against him

Aguero is a victim of injuries and sickness.. Such a shame a legend's career was cut shot

These two guests are legit! No agenda. No bias. No click bait. Educated points with arguments that are backed up with facts and emotion. These two are the best guests I've ever seen on this channel, they piss all over that bias chelsea fan who knows very little. Great episode👍

If Starz hasn’t watched Ronaldo that isn’t Ronaldo’s fault. Ronaldo scored 47 goals in la liga at aged 20 for a Barcelona team that was only europa league level. No one in history has ever done that

The winner was obvious from the start. That being said, Luis Suarez is the best striker since R9.

Choosing eto over lewandoski in a striker goat list is shocking. Choosing eto because he can play anywhere in the attack means nothing, it’s a who’s the goat striker video

Both Henry and Rooney left to the MLS at 33, Benzema is currently 34. Loved the pod but some of the ages getting pulled out where so far off it was funny lmao

I can’t lie this is my favorite football podcast

All of you saying R9 won 2 world cups but neglecting the fact that he didn’t play a single game in the 1994 world cup so it doesn’t really count.

Phenomenal addition, unrivalled debut! Nostalgia that paints a direct image in ur head, truly outstanding

When one of the original 4 sds cast can't make it ....Lyes is next up his takes are objective and not biased, killed his debut on the pod!

SDS PODCAST W! Such a great podcast keep it up boys!

As a barca fan i respect faysal and his ball knowledge so much for speaking facts about how good suarez was. In a way I think a rival fan will see a players greatness that much more as he saw what suarez was doing week in week out scoring volleys from all angles and doing flicks in the middle of the pitch, letting the ball past him for someone else to finish. In all honesty i thought they would have all said r9 and kinda move on but to see that much of an argument for suarez put a smile on my face

Suarez vs R9 was definitely close. R9 still just about edges it for me, and I love Suarez. Henry vs Benzema should be easy, Henry was dazzling, gliding past players and finishing in his prime. Benzema is recently started hitting Henry levels, he’s a great link up player and just last season alone made him more clutch than Henry. However, France aren’t winning the world cup, Benzema, Mbappe, Griezmann just dont work, Kante’s been injured and in decline, Pogba just fell off, the defense is shaky. Benzema really missed out in 2018, they’d still have won with him, a no-ego mbappe, prime grizzi, kante, pogba, umtiti and varane. Just an extremely solid core…

You guys consistence are something else, video every day wow. You are treating us 😭

Lewandowski is clear of Eto 3rd UCL all time scorer,3rd!!! These are insane numbers..Respect him.

Lewandowski gets disrespected waay too much on this channel, he has outscored everyone on this list, got more CL goals than everyone except Benzema who he's tied with, most CL knockout goals (alongside Benz) and should've won 2 Ballon d'Ors. He has 7 seasons with 40+ goals in all competitions and 50 and more twice in comparison Ronaldo nazario and Benzema have scored 40+ goals once in their career and Suarez twice and they never reached 50 goals other than Suarez. He should've gone to final easily. This is about strikers and Starplayer is saying things like 'if they're not scoring what do they provide' lol, a strikers job is to score and if they're scoring more than anyone that's out there that's what matters.

Faysal and Lyes are Iniesta and Xavi

Loved the videos but for some reason they haven't been recommended to me in a while (even though I'm subscribed). Keep it up, love the videos

Easily the best ever SDS episode! Lyes was great, this 4 have amazing chemistry

Picking eto o over Lewa is just disrespectful

Listened to this on Spotify, great conversation. Good ball knowledge on show

Great vid from these guys

RIP RVP. Honestly one of the best strikers since the 00s, fantastic player and very complete

Only took two episodes and Lyes is my favourite. Elite ball knowledge

And yo this new guy, he’s such a breath of fresh air. And insanely knowledgeable he literally knew more about every single player and topic they discussed than the regular guys did keep bringing him on. Only thing I ddidnt like is he’s a United fan lmao

Crazy concept. Love it

Suarez is very underrated. Him, Gerrard, Sturridge, Sterling and Coutinho where carrying Liverpool at one point specifically the Suarez and Sturridge partnership. He won the golden boot when Messi and Ronaldo where at the height of their careers. He’s got the 3rd most assists of all time but he was in the background because of Messi and Ronaldo. Also Lewandowski deserves some respect he has shown time and time again he can do it in the CL and is now in Barca also he’s won everything with Bayern. Both Lewa and Suarez should probably have a Ballon D’or.

David villa is too underrated, defo should’ve been included in this

David villa should have been on this list

Icl faysal convinced me on suarez 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

No brought up how lewa led a borrusia dortmund side to a champions league final.

Best striker? Honestly it's between R9 and Suarez imo, R9 because of the world cups and how the generations after looked upto him as the greatest striker OAT. On the other hand, actually watching first hand, Suarez at Liverpool and Barcelona, breaking the duolopy of the "freaks" of a generation you guys mention in cr7 and Messi who are the two GOATs of football for many. Suarez and R9 should've been the final tbh

Would love to see a Who Is The GOAT of all time (top 10) to see who knows ball and doesn't 🤣

That Tim Cahill volley in 2014 better then any of van persie’s it deserved way more hype

Brazilian Ronaldo. No debate at all. The most complete striker.

Sad my man Sergio Agüero couldn’t make it through. But I agree Suarez was just better

A guest that knows ball. Things you love to see.

Bro been here since day 1 the progress is cold 📈📈📈

fayz banger. I absolutely agree with the Neymar take. been saying this for weeks, he's going to have the best season by a Brazilian and he's going to win everything. WC, UCl, Ballon d or, etc.

sergio did do it in the champions league and his goals to game ratio is so good just a shame he had so many injuries almost every season however luis suarez is a better player.

love the goat brackets you could do countries to

these knockouts videos are extremely good and this was the first american ive seen with sublime ball knowledge

I would love to see this kind of face-off list, but with SPECIFIC teams on SPECIFIC seasons. Like 08-09 Man Utd. 13-14 Barcelona etc

I’m a barca fan but no way they chose eto’o over lewandowski, lewandowski has won multiple golden boots, broke gerd muller’s record, should’ve won a ballon d’or in 2020, took BVB to the final, won a treble with bayern etc. Easily the best striker of his generation after suarez

I like this new guy smart input make hime a regular

An hour of SDS!! Let’s goooo

I see faysal and I click at this point my goat

Luis Suarez is the best striker I have ever seen play football. You cannot disregard longevity in an argument it is a factor to measure greatness also.

shoutout to the fly who made this podcast

Sickest debates going

For the start sub sell: Prime R9, Prime Henry, Prime Suarez. that one would be interesting

How are players like Van Basten not in here. Get that its mainly last 20 years. But Van Basten won 3 ballon d’ors while quiting at 28. One of the best players ever

I think this was my favourite video yet.

I love this game. Pls make one for defenders aswell

Fayzal has the most ball knowledge on this podcast BY FAR!

aguero, eto’o, van persie, drogba. my favorite strikers of all time

This new guy i like him , he knows his facts 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

This was a good episode

Lyes needs to become a regular imo. this group of 4 >

R9 is obviously the goat with Henry as 2nd but I’m disappointed they didn’t include the likes of Romario, Adriano, Van Basten, Batigol, Crespo, David Villa, Hugo Sanchez, Tevez, Del Porto, Klose, Baggio, Weah, too mang goats missed out on the love and discussion

The guy next to Sharky needs substitution. Best football podcast on RU-vid regardless

You lot guilt tripped me into subscribing. Bravo boys👏🏽👏🏽😂😂

faysal didn’t say it the right way. aguero never won pfa player of the year that’s probably what he meant.

Faysal is actually spot on with Suarez. Ppl picking R9 is deluded and nostalgia merchants, hes won nothing compared to el pistero. Stop denying it

I love this channel

Wish I could be on a SDS podcast debating top 20 current NBA players 🤕

No one in this comment section really watched r9 so this whole convo is gonna be flawed but fayz argued his point very well but it’s easy when u can pull knowledge from recent memory

one thing i learned today is if your a generational striker you more than likely played for barcelona. R9 suarez henry zlatan aguero eto thats actually mad

Do a Goat bracket for greatest UCL individual matches, and also a Goat bracket for greatest individual premier league seasons

The longer the video is, the better it is.

Faysal and Stars are like prime Varane and Martinez. 🐐S

I just wanna say that we’re not gonna see a player like Zlatan in a LONG time. How many guys have we seen in the history of football who are 6’5 with that level technical ability? His passing is also very underrated and he probably has the greatest catalogue of goals ever

Nah this is too good, Fayz Suarez segment was so good. Lyes ball knowledge is top notch too.

Lyes you’re ball knowledge is serious. Straight facts the whole time

From a person who has watched R9, it isn't a debate between him and Suarez. People forget that R9 didn't even get to hit his peak, he was barely 23 years old when he tore his ACL and didn't play for nearly 3 straight seasons until his return in the 2002 WC, where he had the greatest individual campaign since Maradona in 86. After that, he went to Real Madrid, clearly nowhere near 100% and out of shape, and still scored 30 goals in 44 games and 31 goals with 13 assists in 48 games in back to back seasons with Madrid, AFTER his busted knees. Even when he was out of shape he would glide past defenders like it was nothing, the most complete number 9 ever.

Massive thanks to Sharkz and SDS for making me get into football! Here I am working on TikTok strategy for a skincare brand and listening to this super exciting podcast!!! big up

I understand why people rate R9 so highly, but I also completely relate to Fayzal's argument. Generally speaking I don't give enough appreciation to players while they're playing, but Suarez really was one on the most stunningly talented strikers I've ever watched and I realised it at the time. His finesse always seemed so out of place when matched with his physique, with his strength and speed. And on top of that he could score any type of goal, you name it, he has it in his repertoire and there will be a highlight! I watched it live!! Perhaps I haven't put the time in to watch enough R9, but Suarez has it all!

Video Idea: Create an All Time XI with two different teams. Match them up against each other player for player Would be a 2v2 H2H

R9 had the strength, power and pace of CR7 in additional to the dribbling skills of Messi, undisputed GOAT to those of us old enough to have watched him live

Ofcourse Aguero didn’t get a champions league but his goal record in the competition is insane.

MAN THE RAUL DISRESPECT IS UNREAL!!

19:30 love how stars stays silent even though he’s the one that picked 16 and 4😭

Faysal shits on Starz on the R9-Suarez argument. Starz was waffling & was lucky Lyes was helping him.
