How highly do you rate R9 ?

Best ever.

Fast, strong, skillfull, explosive (maybe the best dribbler ever pre-injury)

No. None of them IMO.

The best forward ever thing is a rather subjective opinion
I'd say I enjoyed watching him in his prime the most => best forward to me

Did I deceive you?

R9 was a great forward,but best of all time? ROFL, not even close ffs. He had one good season at Barca were he scored a lort of goals, but Even Mourinho said that R9 was lazy and did nothing but score for 90 mins ffs.

Gerd Muller without a doubt is the best striker to ever play in Europe. WTF has R9 done that Muller didnt do? Muller was more decisive and did what he was paid to do. Scored in 2 out of 3 champions league final, scored in the european championship final and scored in the WC final that gave West Germany the lead.

R9 was a great player but he didn't really do anything. Won the Balon d'or in 97 when Barcelona players didn't even think he was their best player, they thought Enrique was, and he was their best player that season. Won the balon d'or afetr being injured half the season and then scores goals in the WC when Rivaldo was by far Brazils best player, the myth is far greater than the man, I assure you.

Second best target man striker ever only after Gerd Muller.

Yeah... he won the balon d'or because he dominated the world cup after 2 years of absence.

Muller in my opinion was nothing more than a poacher. Very very good finishing, he was a killer. But R9 was something else, he was maybe the best finisher ever + skills, power, pace and creativity`

I don't rank the 5 greatest players ever. Top 5.

Up with Maradonna, Pele, Franz and Platini.

Dominated the WC? You mean by scoring mostly tap ins and goals? LOL, as a STRIKER Muller is forever and will always be better than Ronaldo? As a striker, Muller > R9, there is no debate, Scored by far more goals, scored them in more important tournaments, and actually guided his team to something important. This R9 hype really is puzzling tbh. R9 was alright for Real MAdrid, nothing more. What did he do exactly that would make you compare him to Pele? or Di stafano, hell even Puskas?

The way people ovverate him is mind buggling. Better finisher than Muller? ROFL. Seriously...just no...R9 isn't the best striker of hisgeneration ffs. Strikers score goals and importnat goals. R9 at his best in 98 did nothing in the final.
