Which young strikers will become world class?

It is. 🙂

Speaking of future world class strikers, has anyone watched Domenico Berardi? I would sign that kid in a heartbeat if I could. He's maybe had a little more difficult second season in Serie A, but at 20 he looks like pretty much the complete package. Fucking Juventus have to own him of course.

He has totally gone off the boil. Might be a one season wonder. Lets judge him against next season.

He hasn't gone "totally off the boil". I watched him put in a very good performance as late as yesterday.

Above all the creative side of his game has been evolving this season, though. He has a couple fewer goals so far but in return he creates plenty for the other attackers. He's still Sassuolo's most important player. Some of the balls he has played are pretty unreal. There's an impressive range in his passing game that is very unusual for a striker, never mind one this young.

There's an article about Alvaro Morata in the Mail today: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3016429/Alvaro-Morata-Marco-van-Basten-Karim-Benzema-taught-Andrea-Pirlo.html

I really like this guy.

Rohit

We should have paid whatever was needed for him last summer.

20m euro with a buy-back clause, can only imagine what he would have costed without one.

Jed

I think Morata looks like a safe bet. Dybala too.

Good player but my word what a horrible fucking video.

Morata's the only U25 center forward I can think of who has all the attributes to play the position. He's definitely one that we missed. He'll cost a bomb now.

He's a good all rounder but nothing about his game is particularly outstanding. Reckon he's nailed on to become a good player but not sure I see much more there at this point.

Took him less than half a season to completely displace Llorente at Juventus. He's practically forcing them to make allowances for two strikers right now. I think it's really impressive, especially in Italy where so much emphasis is put on tactical execution and knowing your role. He's clearly an intelligent and driven player in addition to being physically and technically blessed.

That's the way I feel about him too. Don't think he'll ever be world class.

A lot of Vietto's goals are tap ins, quite similar to Higuain, not quite Aguero or Tevez level. Lacazette looks a quality player.

Morata is good, don't expect him to develop into a world class striker but more into Morientes kind of level. Jese is the world class talent from Madrid (although he's looked heavy legged since his come back from injury), could develop into another David Villa if used through the middle IMO.

Vietto's got more pace and mobility than Higuain but yeah he isn't an all rounder like Aguero or Tevez. Dybala looks more to be into that mould (but may turn out to be a lower level talent).

Dunno but Lacazette reminds me of Sturridge, haven't seen much of him though.

Vietto's has an incredible shot in him. He has that killer instinct of being in the right place at the right time too. I like his all round game too, very intelligent overall play and good technique.

The overall view of Morata has predictably changed here since he is now becoming good. So many didn't want "another project" here this time last year.

I am really not convinced by Dybala. I think there's something missing in his game.

Lacazette's record is indisputable, but he hasn't scored against any of the top 5 side this season.

Morata was never going to be brough without a buy-back.

Meatwad

real wanted a buyback for a reason. it's not like he was some hidden gem.

Seems he really wanted to go to Juve if this is true.
