Do you think he'll surpass Shearer?
He's only 30
Nah, he's physically declining too much
>>64618296
Yeah he's going to score 20+ league goals per season for the the next 4 seasons.
Oh wait that's not happening.
>>64618296
Remember when rooney was bald?
>>64618529
This. I'm surprised he even beat Andy Cole's record.
>>64618296
He may get to 200 BPL goals, not many more
>>64618296
He would need to play for another 5+ seasons where he makes 32+ apps and scores as consistently as when he was 22-28 to get near Shearer. I'd say no way.
In this world of false 9s and other defensive/midfield centric tactics, will anyone beat Shearer's record?
>>64618296
no, hes got 10 goals per season on him max.
>>64618985
KANE
>>64618985
Do you even know what sort of Goal monster Shearer was?
His league goal ratio is over 0.5.
Literally 18+ goals per season on average.
>>64618985
No. Nobody good enough will stay loyal to the PL for 10+ years.
>>64619152
Yes. I do. He was given an out-and-out attacking role was the point, and was GOAT at it.
Even if you average 20 goals per season (and there's only a number of players scoring that any season), you need to continue it for 13 seasons even to tie Shearer. That's a mighty tall order.
He has maybe 5 more goals in him
>>64619315
Kane has 35 in like 18 months of being a first team regular, is only 22, takes pens and is more brains over physicality so presumably could play at the top level until his mid 30s.
cant prune the roon
>>64619389
Well that's the thing though, Kane has held his form for like 18 months and everybody's freaked out over it (don't get me wrong, I like Kane). Now imagine somebody holding that form for 13 whole years, how hard that is.

>harry mong
>brains
I would love it if Rooney caught some amazing form this year.
United swap Rooney for Lukaku in the summer.
>>64619444
Yeah, but I think he's the likeliest bet of the current generation. It's either gonna be a Brit or an explosive JF who stays particularly long in the league (Ronaldo would have broke it if he stuck around).
Maybe Lukaku? Will he ever be fashionable enough for a big foreign club? He's nearly got 60 and is 22 as well. He could keep plodding along and racking up more and more.
>>64618296
He's finished, senpai.
>>64619606
>Rooney playing for Everton again
Could be fun I guess.
To score a lot of goals in the EPL you have to be able to head the ball.
If you can't you'll never be top scorer of the league. The last Striker to push 30 goals in the EPL was Drogba and they don't make many players like him anymore.
>>64619812
>The last Striker to push 30 goals in the EPL was Drogba
Dude Suarez.
>>64619812
Luke Aku is basically a better Drogba
>>64619983
nah not better, maybe a better goal scorer but never a better player.
Drogba was always the best in big games and was the player with the biggest influence on the team.
He is one of those player whose statistics don't say anything about him
the question is if he'll surpass bobby charlton, before or after charlton dies.
>>64618296
Lampard was the best player to ever play in the prem desu
not under LVG
>>64620915
This 2bh
>177 goals from midfield
Absolute GOAT
>>64618296
has he really only scored like 18 penulties?
>>64619172
EBHK disagrees senpai
>>64618296
>He's only 30
that's 45 in human years
>>64619152
If Ronaldo still played for United he'd have smashed Shearers record tbqh familia
quick name three Premier League squads not called Manchester United where Rppney would be a first choice striker...
...still waiting...
>>64629237
lol
>18 penalties
that's an almost absurdely low number, he would be well over 200 by now if he took pens
>>64618296
He'd need to score around 20 goals per season for the next 4 years. Not happening.
Lukaku is on 57 EPL goals and he is only 22 or 23.
Probably has the best chance
Thats around 190 goals over 10-15yrs
12 more and he'll be the top scoring in united's history, surpassing bobby charlton.

>>64618636
When he was 9?
don't forget that Shearer scored 23 goals before the rebranding of premier league, so he has 283 total
and that would make him 5th highest goal scorer in english top division history

He plays Burnout: Paradise a bit too much.
