is Kuranyi the hottest striker in Europe now ?

the good lad just scored

FOUR

goals in one game

FOUR GOALS



@ anybody

let me know which other striker has recently hit the net FOUR times in one game against a first league side

could be Derby, Valencia, Palermo, Twente or even Lokomotiv Krakow

Toni did it recently, of course

anybody else out there ??

maybe Torres or Tevez or Robinho or ZEROoney or Zlatan or ANYBODY else ??????

Afonso Alves

7 goals in one game

fine

then , for all I care, he is the second best striker in Europe right now

No, Gomez for one is on better general form, that's why he's forced him out of the German first XI

Kevin does nothing against Barcelona despite his team outplaying them for most of the two legs, but it's a few goals against Cottbus that make him the best in the world.

I know you're only as good as your last game, but you take knee-jerkism to new levels entirely.

Maybe we should play Wiese, Rolfes, Khedira, Kuranyi, hell, even throw in Wörns in the EM first XI, they'll blow everyone away

Judging by the discusion on the English board it has to be Villa. Apparently Liverpool are getting him cut price because Liverpool want him, eventhough he has a €100m buyout clause and has not requested a transfer. All this while playing Cr@p in a God-awful Valencia team this season.

Rant over. Thanks for listening.

No, he is not, but it's great to see him scoring again (as long as it's not 4 goals against Werder...). We need our strikers to be in top form for Euro 2008.

But forget about the number of goals, his second goal was just great:

Sorry it's so late Blut, but good to have you back. You have been sorely missed. Welcome back

Could see Kuranyi being a good striker for someone like Blackburn or even Man City to buy.

Blackburn obviously have a lot of good options up front already. Citeh don't though and apparently have a fair amount to spend in the summer

This board needs all the good posters it can get. I'm planning a brief trip to Germany in May. Hope to catch Dortmund v Stuttgart and Fortuna Dusseldorf - got to be done in tribute to the man who opened the door to black and African players in Germany. Will start thread on that trip later.

Good to see you recognize the GENIUS that is YOURI MULDER !!!!

Kuranyi couldn't hit a cow's ass with a banjo, we all saw that in the two matches against Barcelona. Kuranyi was the crappiest striker in Europe (after Podolski) before Mulder came in

The desperate Germans then sack worthless Slomke and bring in striker-trainer par excellence : Youri Mulder


......just look at the result

God we Dutchies are good, we can even turn crappie Germans into goalscoring machines !

@allez

you are losing it

Kuranyi has NO LOBBY in the German media

YET

they were raving about him after the Barca game

a goal was missing

BUT

his overall game was sensational

+

you are on even shakier ground now regarding German vs French DMCs than you were only few days ago

in the meantime

Frings has scored a 28 metre scorcher

and Ernst was excellent as well in the Kuranyi-4-goal-game producing a world class assist

and yes , you are right, I forgot about Didi as well

there is simply NO WAY France can comete with

Ballack, Frings, DIDI, Rolfes, Kehl, Khedira, Baumann, Lahm, Ottl, Boro, Hitz... in terms of strength , depth , talent, experience ...

Vieira is just past it and no longer even a regular at Inter; Makalele is getting old and the others are nowhere near of the same classb as DIDI , Khedira and Co

@ blut

you cannot just punch out without as much as a "have a nice life" note and then rejoin as if nothing had happened

we were worried about you

and thought

something might have happened

like the conversion to being a Bayern fan that would have forced you to leave out of sheer shame

@ yef

you really have to get rid of the naked lady

bring her out during the night when we post from home

during the day, it's just unprofessional

wahre G

I'd rather sing "Hamburg meine Perle" for the rest of my life than become a glory hunting Bayern fan, otto! That would be so low and pathetic. Fischkopp for life, Werder Bremen, lebenslang grün weiss!


No worries, I just went missing for a while, that's all.

Is Torres the most expensive striker flop?

Welcome back Blut, hope you were keeping it Gangsta, doing what you were doing.

EMP, speaking of Liverpool, Torres is probably the hottest to be honest - if it were based on Anfield alone.

No dispute there. I was talking about the thread on Villa on the English board.

I think Joseba Llorente scored four in one match this season but I'm not certain. Not really that uncommon though.

I love how one game against Energie Cottbus turns an under-pressure striker into the hottest in Europe! Fair play to him though, I think it was his second goal which was a great effort and getting four goals in a game is always an achievement (and was he involved in the own-goal as well?). He seems to have rediscovered his goalscoring boots at last.

Oh, and Berbatov got four goals for Spurs earlier this season.

I once scored 8 goals in one game at playtime. In smaller goals than Alves.

You are gradually becoming a caricature of yourself Otto, it's sad to see. It becomes impossible to communicate in any worthwhile fashion when your remarks have such a tenuous link with reality. Yes, I know Torsten Frings and how good he is. I am also aware of Borowski, Ballack and Hitzlsperger, and how good they can be. I hope too that Ottl and Khedira will go on to have successful international careers at some stage. I don't know if Kehl will be able to offer too much at international level in the future. And I hope for your own sake you're not seriously suggesting an international future for Baumann or Hamann.

It's the way you profess unawareness of the fact that other countries have football players too, who can sometimes be quite good.

Have you heard of Mathieu Flamini? Would he get into the German squad? Will he get into the French squad?

Kuranyi's greatest achievement so far is that he actually seems to have beaten the so called 'Nutella curse' - Most, if not all German internationals taking part in the Nutella ads more or less ruined their careers afterwards.

to Kevin.

To Kevin for making mincemeat of Barcelona

Incase you didnt see the other Kuranyi thread, can someone PLEASE post me his goals against the Catalans?

@ allez

you are becoming clearly anti-German

already I find it impossible to distinguish you from EMP, Bernd, axel and Kas

and have to conclude

that you four have been the same person all along

by the way

yesterday I took a quick look at the current France First 11

it includes ageing legs like Thuram's, Makalele's and Vieira's

add the over-the-hill Sagnol (Lell is better now and does not even make the German squad) + the misfiring Henry and Anelka and there is NO way France will survive the group stage

Italy + Romania

you heard it here first

HmmMMmMMmMMmMMmmmmm...

How did a known Germanophile like Allez become 'anti-German'? Did I miss something, or is otto just in super-paranoia mode again?


Beck's for everyone. Drink, don't fight!

he thinks France has more strength in depth at DMC



since allez is clearly intelligent AND does not see the truth he has to be clearly anti-German
