All the usual suspects (Henry, Aguero, Shearer, Kane etc), but very surprised to see three Chelsea strikers in the top 15. I doubt anyone would have guessed which three.

Not clicked on the link yet so if I were take a guess I would say Crespo, Hasselbaink and Costa. 

Crespo didn't play that many games for Chelsea but when he did I think he had a strike rate of a goal every other game. He was phenomenal and it's just a shame his off field problems prevented him from settling in London because he would have probably gone down as one of the best goal scorers ever at Chelsea. 

Hasselbaink was great, that late 90's early 2000's Chelsea was when I was attending a lot of games and I know a lot of fans found JFH lazy but he knew where the back of the net was, the amount of power he could generate striking the ball without a run up was amazing, his penalties were brilliant. 

Costa, still one of my all time favourite players. Such a natural goalscorer. 

 

EDIT.

Read the link... Well, I got one out of three....

What about Flo? Always seemed to have a decent ratio but was better coming off the bench. We managed to mug £12M off Rangers for him which was quite a fee back then and he was never THAT good!

His stats probably plummeted when he joined Sunderland after leaving Rangers. 

I would have guessed Anelka but he wasn't scoring too frequently when he played on the left of the front three for us. 

Goals per assist would be a good stat to look at too.

Surprising to see Demba Ba up there.

Always good to see Demba Ba's name. Brings back some very happy memories

Sutton, Kezman and Claudio Pizarro obviously.
