Surprised Lewis didn’t put vikkstar as the most clinical striker with his two goals from two shots ratio.

[@nengifiedgamer7576]

Lol😂😂😂

[@bucafan]

If vikkstar would have newcastle shirt on he would be top 3 probably

[@rvgprodss]

@@bucafanif vikk star had a Newcastle kit on he would say he’s better than R9 ffs

Having Callum Wilson above the balon dor winner is one of the most insane takes I've heard

Mitrovic, Wilson and Lacazette in a top 10 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@shreyascheguri6856]

Lewis list contained Laccazette and Wilson. He left out Osimhen, Mbappe then he put Benzema in 8th so by his logic Laccazette is twice the striker Benzema is. At this rate I would be surprised if he slapped Chris Wood in the list.

[@frodakai]

When I was in my teens I passionately made a case that Sylvain Distin & Richard Dunne was the best defensive partnership in the premier league. That's about the same energy as Lewis in this video.

[@duggs4456]

"Wilson is in there because he scores more goals per 90, Toney just plays more games". "So why isn't Firmino in there if he has more goals per 90 than Wilson" "He doesn't play as many games" Someone make sense of this please

[@jamesjenkins6093]

It actually does make sense, Firmino doesn't have as much of a sample size and Ivan toney plays way more minutes so gets more goals. Simple

[@XXXTENTAClON227]

Firmino has less goals per 90 than Wilson so it doesn’t really matter what Lewis said, at least he didn’t pull fake stats out his arse

[@jaydenbrown2999]

[@MartinKul100]

[@lukehart_]

Lautaro Martinez, current serie A top scorer, scored 19+ goals every season for the past 4 seasons but Tom says he is crap!?! He didnt have a great world cup but come on, he is a top top player!

[@ashton7590]

He's shite in clutch situations, bro can't strike a ball properly, also Serie A isn't that hard you have random ass players in your top scoring charts, These players won't even crack or do anything in the Prem or Other top leagues.

I struggled between these two. Put Lewa above just cuz of longevity) 4. Lewandowski 3. Mbappe (on the list but not better than Kane or Haaland as a core striker. He's a better football player though) 2. Kane 1. Haaland

[@LABRADFORD10]

Good list, but I would switch mbappe to 1, haaland to 2, and Kane to 3. It doesn’t really matter that much tho.

[@benwilliams8557]

Alvarez?

[@richardmajor25]

The only Lewis take I agreed with is him putting Lacazette on his list because he scored 2 fewer goals than Mbappe in the same league but on a far worse squad. They laughed at him but Tom put Mbappe 1st over Haaland on his list despite having the most goals, the best goals-to-game ratio in Europe, and with fewer shots. In the league, Lacazette did virtually the same as Mbappe. So by Tom’s logic, Lacazette should be on that list.

[@DalleGamer]

Offical: Lewis loves Newcastle more than his own mom. Watch Isak score 20 next season and Lewis go: Best there ever was period.

[@clauslarsen8971]

The Newcastle fan needs to stop being involved in the lists. The amount of bias isn't even funny when it's this stupid. If all the Newcastle players were as good as he says they are, they would have been 2nd in the league and they'll reach the Champions League final next season. A fast striker who gets subbed on versus tired legs, is often gonna have a better record than the main striker. Stop being a stat merchant if you don't look into the stats
