Who allyuh feel is currently de best header of de ball?
« on: June 29, 2005, 04:15:12 PM »
Ah talking about scoring goals wit headers. Ah been watch Jared Borgetti fuh de past few years and fuh me he is number one. Ah doh get tuh consistently watch ah wide cross section of ball, so ah could be definitely  missing out on odda players. If so, leh meh know. De goal Borgetti score against Italy in WC 2002 was ah classic as far as headers go.

That is something kind of difficult to judge. Shevchenko and Eto'o are very good at it. Getting your head to ball is all about movement of the ball. Borgetti is excellent off the ball and knows where the goal is. I agree with you ,he is the best header right now. I think Mexico's style of attacking is almost tailored to suit Borgetti. The way they use the extremeties of the field provides more oppurtunities for good crosses from either the left or right.

Oh yeah, John Terry, Morientes and Raul are very good. Helguera's heading ability is very under rated.
Ronaldo is one of the worst headers of the ball at that level of play.

When I saw the title of the thread Jared Borgetti was the first name to come to mind. Alan Shearer of Newcastle, Duncan Ferguson of Everton and Patrick Kluivert are very good with their heads.

ah woulda go with Shearer but that was when Newcastle was playing with 2 wingers,now he ent scoring cause he ent getting the right service for his type of game..anyway...Speed,Scholes,Vieri,Koller,Morientes,Cocu and Larsson have good ability in the air, also Gullit, van Basten,Platt,Fowler and Klinsmann from the 90's...but now i would have to say the best right now(last couple months) is both Terry and Borgetti in front of goal that is.

We have the best header of the ball in we own TT team and alyuh looking all around the world.

Marvin Andrews.......Is the best. BBC even dedicate a Master Class to him when he was playing at livingston

Dog does score and defend a two in one.

WHo could win a ball in the air from dog....Not even Borgetti.

Shearer comes second.

Ah was thinking the same thing watching the Mex/Ger game yesterday. Jared Borgetti is deadly in the air. Can't forget Yorkie in his glory days at ManU.

Borgetti is de boss now.  Back in the day I would say Yorke and Morientes (not playin much in recent times).  Klose in de 2002 World Cup for sure (havent seen him play much since).

duncan ferguson from everton is a flecking boss! that man is a beast in de air in attack.  borgetti have real guile and ah go put him for a close second, but when it come to jumping and wining a ball in de air and putting it in de net, ferguson is de man!

Borgetti is number 1. Anyone remember his header against Italy in WC 2002? Boss! The two against Germany was also very dread.

Other killas in the air

2. Urzaiz - Spain and Athletic Bilbao (all dat man does is score headers)
3. Morientes (but you already knew dat)
4. Peter Crouch (de man is like 7 feet tall)
5. Brian McBride (do hate on the yankee....he could real butt)
6. Bernardo Corradi (formerly of Lazio...now at Valencia. Pure head specialist)
7. Jan Vennegor of Hesselink (PSV...he is a giant)
8. Klose (based on WC 2002 exploits...never really saw him after that)
9. Crespo (dat man does put his head anywhere..)

Past killas who still playin'...Shearer, Jardel, Yorke

One ah de best headers ah see was from non other than Dwight against Inter Milan with Ronaldo sitting in the stands...Dwight tear up Inter and the header he score he run and then fly in the air like superman and nearly buss de net with the header....Ah wish ah had dah game on video.

Yorkie was the boss with his head back in Man U. days

Is true, he is ah master header of de ball, but ah consciously leave him out because he eh currently doing it.

He doing it for Sydney FC too but he eh do it fuh we yet either. I eh taking nothing away from Tallest's goal, but ah was wondering why Yorke was takin de corner instead of at de end of it.

Borgetti
Adriano
Morientes
Larsson
Shevchenko
Crespo
John Terry
Frank Lampard is alright too.

i dunno boy Tallman hes bin scorin some wonderful individual headers for Sydney Fc. An the two recent ones ive seen had nothin to do with defenc eof keeper they were both top notch headers. One against some australian team where he dove forward and flicked it into the far corner hiting it hard enough to lob the keeper. Dat was pretty crazy. And the goal against Al Ahly he moved very quickly to get to it, got ALOT of height and guide it perfectly into the bottom left corner. Keeper didnt have a chance. But yea i suppose there are better. RAUL is always scoring good headers.
since ah born or at least circa Copa Caribe

Why all of you forget the name Michael Ballack.
He´s got the most dangerous header of all midfielders (maybe of all players)  in whole europe.
He scored many goals with his head for germany and Bayern Munich (he already scored about 5 with his head in this season).

The next man i want to mention is Didier Drogba of Chelsea sometimes he is playing in different heights than his opponents.
