This is a slide of seven forwards which I think have engraved their names into every Barcelona fan's heart. I was inspired to make this after hearing the news of David Villa signing to Barcelona, so I decided to make a tribute of the best forwards of the decade. I have based them on their goal scoring ability and have included Attacking Midfielders as well because they can act in advanced roles such as a “Deep Lying Forward.” Hope you enjoy the slide. Comments are most welcome, feel free to recommend any changes to the list. (They are listed in no order and goals are league only; all rankings are from 2000-2010)
Luis Enrique: 1996/2004 (207 app/73 gls)
A true Barcelona legend known as “Lucho”, his time was spent with two main rival teams whose encounters on the pitch gave “El Clasico” the reputation it deserves. His first club was Real Madrid, where he stayed for five seasons before shockingly moving to their fiercest rivals at FC Barcelona. In the first three seasons with Barcelona he scored 46 goals, and his eight years at the club earned him first team captain. He was known for his versatility as forward and in the midfield, having played the majority of positions except for centre, back and goal keeper.
Normally an attacking midfielder preferred on the right, he was also a sharp striker. His experience made him a formidable forward, having superb technical prowess as an attacking midfielder. He would often charge forward and finish with force. Having quick off-the-ball intelligence he would anticipate passes from the midfield and create opportunities.
And who could forget his vintage celebration of upper cutting the football frenzied atmosphere? He played international for Spain 1991-2002, and currently coaches the B team of Barcelona.
