Goal shy Chelsea strikers over the years ...

Featured Replies

Here's my list , add one's I've missed !

1 Chris Sutton 28.00 games per goal

2 Fernando Torres 11.33 games per goal

3 Dave Mitchell 7.00 games per zero goals !

4 Robert Fleck 6.12 games per goal

5 Andre Shevchenko 5.33 games per goal

Even Alan Mayes averaged better at 3.47 games per goal !

Shevchenko is forgiven due to that screamer he scored against Spurs. Haven't seen many better in a blue shirt.

Compare my list BEFORE they signed for Chelsea !

1 Dave Mitchell 3.71

2 Robert Fleck 2.8

3 Chris Sutton 2.75

4 Alan Mayes 2.72

5 Fernando Torres 2.15

6 Andre Shevchenko 1.74

Are these League only stats Star?

I'm sure Suttons is too high, he scored at least 3 after all!!!

A more alarming stat would be numbers of goals per game divided by transfer fee. The Torres figure would be tragic.

Adding Kezman and Steve Livingston to that list.

Thought so, I make Sutton as 3 in 39 overall.

Which boosts his 'total' , a little!!

Do these stats include substitution appearences? I only ask as Torres has had a handful of last 5 minute run outs.

Pizarro 2 goals in 21 according to wiki (10.5). And yet 71 in 174 at Bayern before us and 17 in 26 for Werder Bremen on loan after us.

Stamford Bridge is like some sort of Indian burial ground for strikers!

Forrsell 6.6 and Di Santo 0 goals in 8 games. Maybe a bit harsh including them as they were really only youth players.

Jimmy Greaves is the king at 1.26 , Bobby Tambling at 1.84 with Kerry Dixon at 2.28 .

To please Fernando, Trevor Aylott averages 14.5 and in a terrible era's to make him feel sick - Neil Shipperley 5.28 and Teddy Maybank 6.4 ... Cannot find figures from the kid West who scored on his debut v Arsenal.

Shevchenko is forgiven due to that screamer he scored against Spurs. Haven't seen many better in a blue shirt.

Still reckon it was a cross.

Stats on Mutu?

George Weah - Not that he played much did he?

Solomon kalou if you count him as a forward? lol - would be a little harsh i suppose.

One we have missed is Steve Finneston, in my opinion the most natural finisher we have had since Jimmy Greaves. Injury stopped what would have been a legendary career.

2.35 in a period when we struggled financially !

Hernan Crespo, Hernan Crespo, Hello Hello! 2.45 - Excellent for a guy who never settled!

Good shout that, gutted he couldn`t settle here, or rather his wife couldn`t. bloody women.

Yeah, that was a real shame for us. He just oozed quality and had a wonderful temprement and attitude. He'll always be one of my favourite players to wear the shirt. Although he came close to getting me murdered when he scored that wonder goal at Wigan. I nearly broke my cover which would not have gone down at all well with the maniac Wigan fans sat around me. (I say Wigan fans but I bet that was the first and last match they went to). I've sat with home fans a fair few times but they were the most angry hate filled people I have ever sat with at a football match.

Back on topic, Joe Allon. 1 goal per 7 games. Only made 14 appearences though. With that success rate in front of goal it is no wonder he managed to break my dads watch with a wayward shot in the warmup before an evening game at Walsall.

Christ, when you see it like that... not looking good for Torres huh?

And agreed about that Shevchenko goal vs Tottenham, just incredible. Worth £30m for that alone for me :D

The miscarriage could have something to do with it...

i had forgotten about that, I stand corrected.

Hughes, Vialli, JFH, Eidur Gudjonsen, Drogba - all good buys at the time Jimmy Floyd then later Drogba were both club record fees ? Football like life is a gamble, you and I might bottle putting our life savings on one spin of the roulette wheel for RA obviously 50 mill quid is just pocket change.
