Predict the top 20 goal tally for 2009-2010

Here is a look at how last years ended up in all competitions

How do you think next years will look?

What would be the major changes, apart from Ronaldo not being on it.?

Anelka 25
Ronaldo 25
Gerrard 24
Lampard 20
Van Persie 20
bent 17
Rooney 17
Torres 17
Adeybayou 16
crouch 16
Bendtner 16
carew 15
Kuyt 15
Robinho 15
Tevez 15
berbatov 14
drogba 14
pavlyuchenko 14
defoe 13
ireland 13

Lets see who's predictions will be most accurate come the end of the season.

i think tevez will be up there, he's a good player, and should have plenty of first team starts at city.

but top goalscorer next season has to be torres, barring any serious injury (touch wood)

Who's this Adeybayou you talk of?

Torres will be top, with Gerrard runner up. I'm just being a realist.

1.Torres
2.Anelka
3.Gerrard
4.Adepayup or Tevez
5.Van Persie

1. Torres

2. Gerrard

3. Lampard

4. Rooney

5. Van Persie

1-3 : Torres, Anelka, Rooney
4-6 : Lampard - Gerrard - Drogba
7-9 : Van Persie, Robinho, Kuyt.

1. Torres
2. Anelka
3. Agbonlahor
4. Rooney
5. Lampard
6. Gerrard
7. Tevez
8. Van Persie
9. Adebayor
10. Kuyt, Berbatov

Torres 32
Anelka 27
Gerrard 25
Van Persie 21
Lampard 19
Defoe 19
Crouch 18
rooney 18
Tevez 17
drogba 17
Adebayor 15
Agbonghalor 15
Silva 14 <<< optimistic but hopefully for us
Berbatov 14
carew 13
Robhino 13
Kuyt 11
Owen 11
Santa Cruz 11
Ireland 10

1. Torres   If stays mostly injury free should manage approx 35
2. Rooney  Will score more now Ronaldo and Tevez gone  approx 30
3. Anelka  Cant see any reason for him to fall away  approx 25
4. Gerrard Should manage to score  approx 25
5. Tevez  New club  expect a good season  approx 20
6. Lampard  15 from penalties and 5 from richochets approx 20
7. Berbatov same reason as Rooney  approx 20

Also I expect more goals to come from

Walcott
Agbonlahor
Benayoun

Owen added 5 goals from simple tap-ins and then goes AWOL!

1. Torres
2. Gerrard
3. Rooney
4. Tevez
5. Anelka

1. Torres [36]
2. Van Persie [29]
3. Santa Cruz [28]
4. Kuyt [25]
5. Gerrard [22]
6. Rooney [22]
7. Berbatov [21]
8. Anelka [20]
9. Lampard [19]
10. Adebayor [18]
11. A. Johnson [18]
12. Riera [15]
13. Tevez [14]
14. Nasri [13]
15. Bellamy [12]
16. Giovani [12]
17. Owen [12]
18. Drogba [11]
19. Fuller [11]
20. Bullard [10]

1. Torres [36]
2. Van Persie [29]
3. Santa Cruz [28]
4. Kuyt [25]
5. Gerrard [22]

If that happens we'll win the title.

83 goals between three of our players? I'd love it to happen, and do think if Gerrard and Torres stay fit their totals are realistic. Still, I can't see Kuyt getting more than 15 or so from the wing.

Love your optimism, though!

1. Drogba - 27
2. Torres - 26
3. Gerrard - 22

1. Torres - 31
2. Van Persie - 26
3. Drogba - 24
4. Gerrard - 23
5. Anelka - 21
6. Lampard - 20
7. Rooney - 20
8. Arshavin - 19
9. Robinho - 18
10. Kuyt - 17

1. Torres 33
2. Anelka 23

5. Arshavin 21
6. Tevez 20
7. Agbonlahor 20
8. Santa Cruz 19
9. Defoe 19
10. Berbatov 19

Prem League table so far      so what are the surprises after 8 matches?

Torres            Liverpool           8
Bent            Sunderland          7
Drogba           Chelsea             6
Rooney          Man Utd            6
Defoe          Tottenham          5
Jones          Sunderland           5
Keane         Tottenham           5
Saha            Everton               5
Adebayor      Man City             4
Agbonlahor   Aston Villa           4
Bellamy        Man City              4
Cole           West Ham             4
Fabregas       Arsenal               4
Vermaelen     Arsenal               4
Anelka         Chelsea                3
 

I think top 10 this year will be:

1. Torres
2. Bent
3. Drogba
4. Adebayor
5. Rooney
6. Defoe
7. Van Persie
8. Tevéz
9. Jones
10. Van Persie

I think top 10 this year will be:

1. Torres
2. Bent
3. Drogba
4. Adebayor
5. Rooney
6. Defoe
7. Van Persie
8. Tevéz
9. Jones
10. Van Persie

Van Persie will have done well he entered the list twice

1. Torres [36]
2. Van Persie [29]
3. Santa Cruz [28]
4. Rooney [25]
5. Aqilani [22]

i think Saha being on there is a surprise     


and Gerrard not being on there is also a surprise

Interestingly  4 on the list all play/played for Liverpool at one time

Vermaelen, Saha and Bent are the surprises IMO.

Torres             8   Liverpool
Bent                7   Sunderland
Drogba            6   Chelsea
Rooney           6   Man Utd
Defoe              5   Tottenham
Jones              5   Sunderland
Keane             5   Tottenham
Saha               5   Everton
Adeybayor      4   Man City
Agbonlahor     4   Aston Villa
Bellamy           4   Man City
Cole                4   Westham
Fabregas        4   Arsenal
Vermaelen      4   Arsenal
Anelka             3  Chelsea


Will Bent be credited with the goal off the balloon?   After all that goal was "bent"

The table so far after 11/12 matches

Torres     10
Drogba     9
Bent        8
Rooney    7
Van Persie  7
Cole         6
Defoe      6
Saha        6
Agbonlahor 5
Fabregas    5
Jones        5
Keane       5
Rodallega  5
Adeybayor 4
Bellamy      4


Teams 

Arsenal  36
Chelsea  28
Liverpool 25
Man Utd 23
Tottenham 23
Man City    21
Aston Villa 20
Sundeland 20

 

I'm quite certain the top 5 scorers at the moment would hit 20-25 goals should they manage to stay fit throughout the whole season.

And looking at the number of goals scored per team, well the Mancs don't seem to be doing well in that department. Lacking ladyboy the reason eh!

My top 5 would be (in no order)

Torres, Bent, Drogba, Gerrard and Fabregas.

Drogba - 24
Rooney - 22
Torres - 21
Bent - 17
Van Persie - 17
Defoe - 16

1. Torres  - 27
2. Drogba - 25
3. Van Persie - 22
4. Bent - 19
5. Rooney - 19
6. Defoe - 18
7. Lampard - 17
8. Adebayor - 17
9. Fabregas - 14
10. Gerrard - 13
11. Berbatov - 12

Rooney        19
Bent            14
Defoe           14
Drogba          14
Tevez            12
Torres           12
fabregas         11
saha               11
agbonlahor      8
lampard           8
anelka             7
arshavin           7
berbatov          7
cole  westham   7
kuyt                 7

So with about 13 games to go


Who will win the golden boot?

Who will climb up the list?

Who are you disappointed with/

Who has done better than you predicted?

Golden boot - looking like it could be Rooney. However I expect Drogba to really climb when he gets back from Africa and he could challenge.

Surprised by the amount Fabregas has scored.

Torres is 2 behind 2nd and 7 behind Rooney and he has played a lot less games than them!

Had it not been injuries he'd have been well ahead.

6 games remain `for `most `teams

Rooney     26
Drogba ` `24
Bent ` ` ` 20
Torres ` ` 18
Defoe   ` `17
Lampard ` 17
Tevez ` `  16
Fabregas ` 15
Saha ` ` ` 13
Berbatov ` 12
Agbonlahor 11
Malouda ` `11
Adeybayor `9
Arshavin ` `9
Cole ` ` ` `9


Who will win the golden boot?

Who will climb up the list?

Who are you disappointed with/

Who has done better than you predicted?

Torres to win the golden boot with a phenomenal finish to the season

Still think Nando can win it. Getting around 2 goals a game at the moment so keeps that going he will get 30.

It stands like this now :

1     Wayne Rooney     Manchester United     26
2    Didier Drogba    Chelsea    25
3    Darren Bent    Sunderland    22
   Carlos Tevez    Manchester City    22
5    Fernando Torres    Liverpool    18

So far, I'm having Bent, Torres and Drogba right

Torres bettered last season already? Wow.
