Could be the most difficult of the lot, this one.
 
Cantona will be one striker, without a doubt.

It'll be between Ruud and Law for the other place.
 
Im going for Eric and Ruud, whenever the poll actually appears.
 
You can vote for more than one.
 
Rutgerus Johannes Martinus van Nistelrooy

Hard choice to leave out Solskjaer though, with him being one of my favourite players and all.
Cantona would have been 4th choice
 
so many brilliant strikers where do you start, i cant get these 2 out of my head

Charlton
Cantona

and Ole, Ruud and Law should be in there as well
 
The King and Law

AND

this poll throws up so many more anomalies - out of that list - Law has to be Numero Uno but according to the majority of CALLOW posters he aint - Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
 
It pains me to see Spraky struggling there! But surely Law was the best
 
It is a very difficult one. Made even more so by the strange inclusion of Sir Bobalot, I mean, is he a striker or a midfielder? Why was he put in both categories? I actually voted for him in the midfield poll so discounted him here.

Eric has to be in there as does does Denis law. Taking the current managers penchant for having four top class strikers then added are RVN and Sparky.

The Two kings....Eric and Denis.....But Ruud should get at least 20 mins from bench!

That solves my problem.
Ruud is unlucky to miss out but I feel Denis and Eric offer more all round.
 
now im now mathematical expert, but im pretty sure all those percentages don't add up to 100%
 
Surprised Law hasn't got more votes really or as many as Eric.
 
Seeing it's a long season, and the gaffers preference of liking four strikers, I am going for...

Cantona
Law
Hughes
Ruud
 
picking more than 2 is sitting on the fence Sultan..

Hard choice but i went for Ruud and Sparky. Ruud because he has a proven track record at the top level in Europe and Sparky, because i grew up wanting to be like him. The ball stuck to him and he could score scissors kicks, volleys, diving headers and the like.

Cantona was great for us but for me the other 2 had a proven record
 
Dennis Law and Ruud van Nistelrooy.

Undoubtedly the most prolific.
 
Cantona & Ole for me - both could inter-change roles during the match and had similiar strengths which were yet complimentary - both were good on the ball, with Eric edging it in terms of repertoire of ball skills, both good headers of the ball in terms of lay-offs & goal-scoring, & both had/have decent scoring records in terms of number & range - Eric of course, had it all!

I'd have chosen Charlton over Ole but I think as the years went by, he dropped deeper into midfield..
