Goals? What are they? Big Grin

Seeing as we've bagged about half of our season's quota today, I may as well take the opportunity to get this season's thread rolling. It's the usual drill: our top twenty Premier League goalscorers of all time are listed, with current names highlighted in blue, and some of our other newbies are beneath them to show how far they are from breaking into the top 20.


1. Peter Odemwingie - 30
2. James Morrison - 28
3. Chris Brunt - 24
4. Saido Berahino - 23
5. Shane Long - 19
6. Romelu Lukaku - 17
7. Salomon Rondon - 17
8. Gareth McAuley - 15
9. Youssouf Mulumbu - 12
10. Zoltan Gera - 12
11. Robert Earnshaw - 12
12. Marc-Antoine Fortune - 10
13. Craig Dawson - 10
14. Graham Dorrans - 8
15. Jonas Olsson - 8
16. Stephane Sessegnon - 8
17. Paul Scharner - 7
18. Somen Tchoyi - 7
19. Nwankwo Kanu - 7
20. Neil Clement - 7

***

Craig Gardner - 6
Nacer Chadli - 5
Matty Phillips - 4
Darren Fletcher - 4
James McClean - 3
Jonny Evans - 2
Hal Robson-Kanu - 2

Whisper it quietly, but we've got the makings of a quality player on our hands here. Salomon Rondon cements his place in the Top 10, moving alongside Mulumbu, Gera and Earnshaw on 12 goals.

Rondon could catch Brunty by the end of the season ...... with a bit of support and the right balls he could easily hit 15 - 20 goals this year.

After rolling back the years at Leicester today, Mozza pulls clear of Berahino to reclaim his spot as Albion's second-best Premier League goalscorer of all time, and very well-deserved too.

One sulky ungrateful brat overtaken just the King of ungratefulness to overtake (and I still won't mention his name).

Mozza is everything these two aren't/weren't, and will hopefully become a worthy leading scorer in the premier league for us Thumb up Thumb up

Tonight's little avalanche moves Mozza within just five goals of top spot, while Rondon lifts himself up to 7th on the chart, and Fletcher and Phillips add to their own tallies.

Is Rondon level with Phillips now on 19 - he's going to be top very quickly if things keep going the way the are - and I don't mean hat tricks every week

If it hadn't been for that Fabianski fellah, Sol could have had five last night and been top of the pops !

No, the chart is correct as it currently stands; I updated it last night. I wasn't going to bump it with a new comment until Rondon actually passes Lukaku and takes 6th place.

No reason he shouldn't be in the twenties come season's end, and if we can keep hold of him for a third season, we'll more than likely have a new chart-topper.

Today was all about the old guard, with McAuley moving clear into 8th place on thirteen goals, while Brunty draws level with Saido and Mozza is now just four goals away from topping the chart.
