If they lived up to their full potential:

if they wern't hampered by injuries or their own egos, which of Adriano, Recoba, or Vieri would've been the best? personally, i think if vieri's head wasnt so far up his ass, he could've been one of the best to wear the nerazzurri shirt.

Vieri's problem wasn't his ego, it was that nobody that big is supposed to move that fast and as a result his legs couldn't handle full seasons

and it bears mentioning that at the end of the day he scored over a 100 goals in less than 150 apps...so for my money he IS one of the best to wear a nerazzuri shirt

Adriano on the other hand...He could've been one of the best 50 players ever easily...Really a shame how he turned out, from a fans perspective

i was a huge Adriano fan, so i might be biased.
but correct me if im wrong Vieri and Recoba both had longer careers with better results overall.
therefor i'd go with Adriano who didnt really continue with what he could've.

i am thinking AdrianO as well...guy was an atom bomb ready to explode...just a shame really

Vieri is one of the best strikers who player for inter in the last 20 years or so, and the fact that he never fulfiled his potential is sad, but with more than 100 goals im not sure how better he would've been

Recoba, his talent is only second to that of baggio, but natural talent is not enough, he would have been a legend, someone the next generations will always remember

but Adriano ! that guy had everything ! built physic, deadly shot, sexy finishing, worldclass ball control, skilled legs, a head that wouldnt miss, he was simply a BEAST, not even zlatan or drogba can compare to what he would have become, he would have been out there with the likes of maradona and pele, but we all know what happened

i know i have that natural bias,but in form adriano is a ridiculous player.

he had everything,never saw a guy who could finish like he used to.Simply could be one of the best ever.

Too bad the talent ended up on the wrong person

vieri was somewhat established compared to the other fwds mentioned in this list..well i think i have to go with adriano TBH..it was quite apparent frm the fact that he was mentally weak..personal tragedy extinguished his career IMO

Vieri...
