Nerd alert here

Looking for top goal scorers of the premier league era for each letter of the alphabet. Don't have the definitive answers yet, but let's see what BigFooty can come up with.

Oh and it's surnames/shirt names, to save any confusion.

If someone played in both the first division and EPL do you only count their EPL goals?

Yes. EPL goals only. Hence no Rush for R.

But Giggs is still right for G.

Not telling any others yet. Centrelink's done well, only two or three (waiting confirmation on one) are wrong as far as I know.

 

[centrelink1]

Zola
Xavier
Unsworth
Torres
Quinn
Nolan
Murphy
Johnson
Ince
Euell

 

[Bomber Bears]

Wright?

 

[centrelink1]

Wright?

Yes. 6 char.

 

[belfast_bomber]

I owe centrelink an apology, he had none wrong!

 

[ObaMartins]

Anelka
Beattie
Cole
Dublin
E - Did he play for Charlton? Can't remember his name.
Fowler

Johnson, Andy?
Keane
Lampard

Rooney

EDIT: Wow somebody was cheating. No way you could get all them.

 

[Benno_900]

Gary McAllister for M

 

[centrelink1]

Well, I kinda ruined that game. I should have posted a 'challenge accepted' pic, too.


Does anybody know who had the highest cross success rate in the PL last season? I'd say Valencia, but I'm not certain, and I don't have access to the APTA stats.

 

[ShearMagic9]

Euell is the E you're thinking of Oba.

 

[belfast_bomber]

That was his Euellogy.

 

[belfast_bomber]

I'd never have got Unsworth in a month of Sundays. But he had a long career and took penalties.

 

[Benno_900]

Have a go at this, BB ...

Sporcle's blocked in work

Will take a squiz tonight, love these.

 

[ShearMagic9]

Sporcle blocked at work? Your fellow employees must spend wayyyy too much time on there

 

[Benno_900]

Sporcle fries my brain. Why'd you jump on that, of all sites, at work?

BTW, I tried that quiz. Scored 107/200. It's actually a shit score as there are a heap of current day players on that list.

 

[Dagger5]

I only got 93. My mind went blank as I was doing it and I forgot players like Tevez and Agbonlahor.

 

[HolyRioli]

That's nothing, I forgot Owen, Sherringham and Bergkamp
