For a guy who has 48 goals this season

Mario Gomez sure does waste a lot of chances

He was awful tonight. I can't claim to have seen him a lot but when I have he has looked average.

The pressure... and he's obviously had a long injury free season, still one of the better strikers, like Messi he had a quiet game against the solid blues!

Saw him miss a hatful vs Madrid too.

Undoubtedly hes a good player though. Sort of like Imbrahimovic, has the stats but hasn't wowed on the big stage when I've seen him.

I'd love to see his shots to goals ratio.

Talking to my friend who watches a lot of European football during tonight's game, and he claimed that Gomez puts away about one on four chances he gets! But if gets into that many positions to score that many goals he must be doing something right.

True enough. Ribery's another one I haven't seen deliver on the hype.

Ribery has to be THE most over-rated player in history. I can't remember one significant game.

Yeah I really can't remember him doing anything. Limped out today and France play England in 3 weeks...

Robben was always the better player for me, though he has a tendency to go missing on the big occasions also.

I'm still laughing at Mike Calvin's comments about him last Sunday on the Press Pass on Talksport:-

"80 goals in 90 games for club and country. I think he (Gomez) could take them (Chelsea) by himself"

Paddy Barclay then added that "Gomez is as greedy a striker as you are going to get anywhere".

It just goes to show how little football writers actually know and what also makes me laugh is how fans spout out the same rubbish they read in the newspapers.

I've said this before, every single time I have seen Gomez play,admittedly not a lot, he has missed a lot of chances. Although it could just be coincidence, that would be a very big coincidence. I think his main problem is that he isn't an instinctive striker, he always needs an extra touch to give himself more space rather than just hitting it.

If somebody like Van Persie was in that strikers role it would be crazy.

Gomez WILL be top goal scorer at the Euro's.

Only if he remembers where the goal is! He was probably Bayerns worst player last night.

I can guarantee that we will see Gomez miss some glorious chances as well.

Gomez might not start at the Euros, Klose played all the qualifying games.

Gomez is a world class striker though, I put him at the very top bracket alongside Van Persie, Rooney, Ibrahimovic etc.

Isn't Klose 84 by now

I thought Muller was awful last night. He's been so out of form this season. Klose should definitely get the nod at the Euros.

Muller's form has dropped massively since the WC.

Then again he is German so he'll prob score 5 goals.

He was good in Saved by the Bell. Not seen much of him since then though.

He's actually the favourite to win the golden boot at the Euro's.
