Greatest Serie 'A' Strikers of the 1990's

[Craig]

60th - Carlos Aguilera (2 lists)

59th - Igor Protti

58th - Kennet Andersson

 

[Craig]

Joint 57th

Sandro Tovalieri

Ruggiero Rizzitelli

 

[mistermagic]

Kenneth Andersson makes me feel very old for some reason.

Not one of mine out yet.

 

[Craig]

56th - Danny Dichio

55th - Daniele Massaro

 

[Craig]

54th - Jean-Pierre Papin

One of the most iconic French strikers of his generation Papin's time in Italy is nowhere near the pinnacle of his career with Marseille. Nevertheless he still managed to score 18 goals in just 40 Serie A appearances and holds two Serie A winners medals. Thoroughly deserving of a place on this list.

 

[Aber gas]

Danny Dichio ffs.

 

[Craig]

53rd - Hristo Stoichkov

Football legend who only played 20+ games in Serie A. But it's fucking Stoichkov mate. If he'd only been a Cremonese season ticket holder in the early 90's you couldn't leave him out.

52nd - Marco Branca

 

[Craig]

51st - Nicola Amoruso

50th - Ariel Ortega

 

[Craig]

49th - Marco Di Vaio

The vast majority of Di Vaio's Serie A goals came after the 1990's but here's a video of a few he scored before 2000.

48th - Luís Oliveira

47th - Rudi Völler

 

[mistermagic]

Had no idea most of those players performed in Serie A at some point.

Papin's time at Milan isn't exactly looked up to in France but it is respected. Not like Dugarry's stint at Barcelona.

51st - Nicola Amoruso

50th - Ariel Ortega

I have a deep and endearing love f or Ortega. A lazy bastard with god given skills. An absolute joy to watch . I like him more than Marradonna and Messi combined tbqpfh.

 

[mistermagic]

Not a striker though.

 

[Aber gas]

Played as a striker during Sampdoria's 1998- 99 season. Bit deeper for Parma but for the purposes of this fine feature he counts.
So pipe down smart arse.

Didn't know that, see. But yes, I was being a dick, hence the smiley.

 

[Krazy8]

So when is Di Canio going to be crowned the winner of this then?

 

[Luc@]

Man, I know the history of my country's league pretty well and I can tell you that Kanu, Bergkamp, Stoichkov and Dichio shouldn't be in the list cuz they left no sign in Italy. And Marco Negri played well in the Italian Serie B and Scottish Premier League, but definitely not in Serie A.

Your input is meaningless.

 

[Luc@]

Well, do as you wish, it was just an advice. But if you think that someone who has 4 appearances and 1 goal in Serie A (Dichio) deserves to be in the list of the best strikers maybe you don't know what "striker" means.

I don't need your advice and I am well aware of the definition of a striker. Now if you'd kindly jog on that'd be great. This is not a thread for smartarse Italian football fans and I have no idea what gave you the impression it was.

 

[Luc@]

LOL you don't even know me but you know I'm a smartarse. Fine, enjoy your topic, I don't waste my time with rude people.

[mistermagic]

They even managed to finish their list.

 

[Vanni]

 

[Lance Stoe]

Surely Weah, Baggio, Totti, Batistuta and Del Piero has to be the top 5?!

 

[Lionel Messi]

BATIGOOOOOOOOOOOAL
I think Batistuta was the best goalscorer in Serie A in the 90s him and Rui Costa were something special

 

[The Mustard Tiger]

Dario Hubner for top spot.
