Eto is an amazing striker yea but Henry is just so much on form..he netted 2 hattricks like nothing...the last one after coming back from injury ..Eto scores often yea..but Henry does that and still playmakes alot too

Eto'o is a pure striker, you can't say that for Henry.

Henry is old and wasn't that good in his prime. But Eto'o is still young he is now top scorer at LA LIGA with 21 pts which Henry never could have done before.

Henry was a prodigy when he was at Monaco at the age of 16. He's won just about everything. E'too is more of a natural goalscorer, but Henry is probably more valuable to Arsenal due to his mix of skills. He scores, and playmakes he does it all. Last year he lead the EPL in goals and assists.

They count assists in EPL? I thought that was only MLS.

yes they do count them. But theres no actual award for most assists or anything, it dont actualy go towards your point total.

Henry isn't old at all (he turns 28 in August.) Also, I think that he is in is prime right now. The only reason Henry wasn't "good" by stiker standards in his early youth is because he was a left midfielder and wasn't in a goalscoring position (especially due to the fact that he was playing with Inzaghi and Del Piero when they were in their prime.) Once he moved to Arsenal and took a year to adjust to the striker position, he has been unstoppable. He has been the leading Arsenal scorer since 2000/01 and has had 4 30+ goal seasons in a row (including this one.)

Well said...and with all this he's like the main playmaker for Arsenal...so he pulls more than just his weight

he wasn't nominated for player of the year for nothing. he isn't a pure striker, you were right, fc barcelona. he's a whole lot more

Its unfair 2 say if a midfielder is better than i striker as they play totally different positions. Ronaldo is possibly 1 of the best strikers (in his prime), he left defenders for dead and always scored, his still useful now as a chubby guy. he seems 2 score with like only 1 chance. As for Zidane i think he is a gr8 player but its time 2 hang the boots up and let the younger generations come through n take the limelight! he was 1 hell of a player at his peak though!

I dont realy kno whos better. I say theyre both the same in there own way. But when ronaldo was @ his peak, there was nuttn bettr 2 wach on this planet besides him. But now, both of them r kinda losn it, but zidanes still interestn 2 wach, and ronaldos becumn a potato. And henry got more class,n style then Etoo, which makes him more entertainn, and overall betta.

Well it's very unfair to compare those two players cause they play in different positions and they have different purposes on the pitch.

But if we're talking about who's better at Dribbling, I'd go for Zizzou although this is a very close call.
