The best front 3 there has ever been?
118 goals. 44 assists. 2011/2012
*They also have the best minutes-per goal ratio.

Who agrees?
Edit; other great front 3's;
Pedro, Messi and Sanchez = 101 goals
Henry, Messi and Eto = 100 goals
Benzema, Ronaldo and Higuain = 92 goals <<<<
Tevez, Ronaldo and Rooney = 79 goals
Gomez, Robben and Ribery = 76 goals
Drogba, Malouda and Anelka = 67 goals
Ljungeberg, Pires and Henry = 67 goals
Balotelli, Aguero and Dzeko = 66 goals
I suspect Gerd Muller, Uli Hoeneb and another Munich forward got around 80 goals in 1972-1973Last edited by Manchester United; 10-06-2012 at 01:19. -

Re: The best front 3 there has ever been?Pick the 3 best from that four, bet they don't triumph these guys. Also, find me a front four that have scored more goals.(Original post by DaveSmith99)
This excludes a hell of a lot of teams that play with a front four. -

Re: The best front 3 there has ever been?Well Henry, Eto and Messi managed to score 100 a couple of seasons ago... but if Villa wasn't injured this season, along with Mess's goal tally, they probably could have beat Madrid.(Original post by Manchester United)
and how many goals did they score that season? -

Re: The best front 3 there has ever been?See, I disagree with this because this year they have focused on Messi. For example, they have played the ball through to him and allowed him to play the more CF role. Whereas, if Villa would've been fit, he would've sat back a lot more and claimed more assists rather than goals.(Original post by Jordan_1)

I'd of predicted;
Sanchez = 15
Messi = 60
Villa = 30 -

Re: The best front 3 there has ever been?Probably fairest to compare the front three to all front threes in the league that year, since they'd be against (pretty much) the same defences.(Original post by Manchester United)

Re: The best front 3 there has ever been?Based on numbers alone, you're probably right. I can't remember a front 3 that scored more goals, and that's digging through a few seasons where I remember teams that just dominated. La Liga traditionally has more goals scored in a season than other leagues, and Real Madrid 11/12 holds the record at 121 this year. Unreal how we just witnessed history.
Although they might be the best front 3, my personal favorite will be:
Ronaldinho - Eto'o - Giuly
Ronaldinho in his prime was more entertaining than Ronaldo or Messi will ever be.
