64 times a player has scored 20+ goals in the PL in 24 seasons. Henry(5), Shearer (7), Van Nistelrooy (4), Aguero, Ferdinand(3) and RVP, Fowler, JFH, Kane, Drogba, Suarez, Wright, Rooney (2). These players make up nearly 50% of the times it's happened.

20 a season is what fans of Top 4 sides want of their £30m+ strikers.

Good numbers there Scooby.

I don't think anyone is thinking an Albion player will be getting 20 league goals anytime soon, especially under Pulis! But 15-20 inc cup goals would be a possible and very good target. Should Rondon stay firt I expect him to get 10+ because I think he's a solid player and about the best we can hope for.

My understanding is that they are looking for a backup forward & i've no idea how much a backup forward fetch's these days but £50 seems over the top.

A Spanish footy Mag named a huge list of "potential" targets Barca could get in to act as backup for the starting superstars.

There is zero actual work behind this.

Agreed it's a load of sh*te, but imagine he left along with Berahino and we start against Palace with Lambert up front  :o ;D

That would be OK -Palace defenders would be doubled up laughing and we'd sneak the win.

Although unrealistic I wouldn't have said it was on that scale if ludicrous; Rondon has scored goals in La Liga at a very respectable rate, 25 in 60 odd games.  Best just got released from Rotherham United.

you would think with it being the official premier league site that they would at least have the correct info.

It is the correct info, the article is directly about his performance in the Fantasy football style game. 6.5mill is what it costs to have him in your 'dream team'.

Yep, 1999-2000 season top PL scorer with 30 for Sunderland.

Back to Rondon apart from the prestige of being a Barcelona player, he is better staying in the most watched league in the world (and playing for the best club in it) :D

I suggest wrapping Rondon in some bubble wrap during every break to keep him healthy.

That's why Phillips and Chadli have been brought in. A holding midfielder would not have created more chances.

A holding midfield player who's a good distributer can lead to more chances being created, especially on the counter.

If he gets injured we are left with a striker who doesn't want to be here and HRK :(
Going to the Etihad and Old Trafford with Robson Kanu as the lone striker...

Safe to say now that he is nailed on for the striker role until January.

Which in itself breeds complacency. Let's hope he doesn't get injured or go through a bad spell like last season.
