Smithy and Joe are joined by James Allcott & Abz Busquets this week on Saturday Social. Considering the rumours around Erling Haaland signing a new Man City contract weโre looking at the best strikers in the Premier League based on their performance so far this season. Where do the likes of Chris Wood, Alexander Isak, and Nicolas Jackson rank?

Love these Saturday Socials!! ๐๐๐๐ฟ๐ฆ
Like this comment if you think Spurs are winning against City today
๐๐ผ
I understand why but Jackson has got to be the most underrated player now in the league
Darwinizzy should be higher
Chris Wood being 5th is criminal
Why is Nunez is the thumbnail ๐๐๐
Where is jota๐ฎ
Jackson above Wood ๐๐๐ This ain't a serious show.
No cunha is criminal
If itโs based off rn, then thereโs no credibility in this list. Chris wood needs to be higher than Isak. Nunez makes top 10 but Liam Delap with 6 goals in 11 appearances in the league for IPSWICH is no where to be seen? Mockery.
What a fall off in quality compared to the 90s or 00s. You had the likes of Henry, RVN, RVP, Rooney, Berbatov, Anelka, Drogba, Defoe, Robbie Keane playing in the league at the same time.
Hojlund didn't get any service under Ten Hag. When you play alongside 2 greedy wingers, not even Haaland can score any goal. I hope Amorim will stop those egotistical players who only cares about personal glory and start passing to Hojlund.
kai havertz should be higher and Jackson should be lower
Nunez being there is just laughable
Is Watkins one of the top 10 strikers in the league? Yes.
Is he in the top ten right now on performance statistics? No
Nunez has 2 goals this season ๐๐๐
Iโm a Liverpool fan, absolutely love Darwin, but even I can admit he shouldnโt be in the top 10 strikers right now lmao
Incoming criminal comments for Chris Wood ๐
Nunez should be 10th.
He's been decent in the last few games.
But one thing no one seems to realise is the amount of space he creates for Mo and Lucho.
His movement is what is creating the space for our wingers hence why they both have so many goals.
Nunez and his movement is something we are blessed with.
He just needs to finish his chances and he'll be amazing.
Also I reckon Havertz should be higher at least 5th.
James Alcott stinker and hooked
I can only assume that Darwin is there because he is fit and will likely start this weekend. Logically speaking, playing up front for Liverpool requires the ability and skill of an elite striker. His lack of goals can only be overlooked for so long, though.
lads you canโt put the actual answers in the thumb nail ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Why have they included Nunez and not Jota?
Your effort is obvious!
Wissa only at 10? ๐คฃ
I swear I have seen them debate this multiple times this season
THE CORRECT LIST WOULD BE:
10. Jimenez
9. Isak
8. Cunha
7. Watkins
6. Jackson
5. Welbeck
4. Delap
3. Wissa
2. Wood
1. Haaland
Football really is in a bad place, imagine doing this in 2013
No order.
Luis Suarez
Rooney
RVP
Sturridge
Aguero
Dzeko
Tevez
Defoe
Benteke
Lukaku
Welbeck was in 20s then and was nowhere near the level of those players, but because this era of strikers is so average, he looks like great now and he's in his mid 30s ๐๐๐
Is there 10 strikers in Premier league???? Football has gone very boring
Mad to say Jackson struggled in his first season with 14 PL goals. The bar seems to be much higher for Jackson and he's struggling to shake off this stigma he has but I'm glad he's finally slowly getting more recognition. His linkup is quality and his finishing is improving.
Jackson over watkins is laughable
What a sick joke
The amount of people in the comment section choosing to ignore James' criteria for his top 10. Form wasn't the overall consideration. Overall ability was too. But nah lets ignore that and write nonsense begging for likes. ๐ ๐คฃ๐
Love smithy with a classic spurs mentality goals donโt matter itโs everything else, โwe got to a CL final we didnโt win it but itโs was amazing anywaysโ ๐คฃ๐คฃ
Erring haaland is better than Darwin Nunez
No mention of Danny Welbeck on this season is criminal
Cunha?
Letโs not forget that Darwin Nunez has over 50 ga for Liverpool over the last two years. Definitely a top striker in the league.
How do you drop watkins from 3-4 but then not drop isak after he hasnt done anything this season. Mad business bruh
Prem has the worst striker pool in Europe ngl
havertz and solanke have the same goals and assists. but when its solanke hes 'better' for the team and kulusevski , whereas havertz sacrifices himself for saka? double standards are crazy
Kai has more goals and assists as number 9 than everyone except Palmer and Haaland in 2024. He has had to play midfield for much of this season due to the injuries in midfield. Chris Wood shouldn't be 5th, these guys are idiots
Smhโฆ no more really great strikes anymore.
liverpools best team does not feature nunez, but Diaz, Jota, Salah
ํ๋๋ ๋ฏธ๋ง์ก์ด๊ตฌ์. ๋ปฅ๊ธ์ ๋ค ์ฑ๋ ์๋๋๊น๋ด ์ฌ๋ฆฌ ์ํจ์ค 4์์ ๋ฃ๋๊ฑฐ ๋ณด์ ์ฌ ์์ฆ ํผ ๋ณด๊ณ ์ ๋ฌ๋ ใ ใ ใ
Nunez is so much better than people give him credit for
Right now and he's putting Solanke above Wissa, stupid
I support Liverpool and Nunez shouldn't be in that top 10. He is far too inconsistent. Out of our 5 forward players he would be my least favourite. Mo, Diaz, Jota and Gakpo are all much better.
Havertz ๐
darwin nunez in top10 right now? ICANT ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ lets hope he ever gets into a top10 in terms of goals, kinda doubting it atm, seems like he cant bring what it takes on the pitch, maybe he will some day, btw jota would be a better choice for this top10
