Massimo Luongo is your man.

He might get his Premier League break during the 2013-14 season - he's already played for Spurs first team in the League Cup.

How far did Spase Dilevski get? Hopefully not too far, coz he's useless.
 
Klinsman (1.93) the only player with a significantly better goal to game ratio than Adebayor (2.64).
VDV (2.63) and Berbatov (2.59) ahead but marginally.

Adebayor well ahead of Dempsey and Pav, and Kanoute who I consider similar but have much fonder memories of - these are all comparable to Iverson and Mido.

We all know about statistics being misleading and certainly not telling the whole story but it does make me wonder about the whole Moneyball thing. Cameroonian left midfielders with an 18% hit rate, every goal an outrageous finish, are the way forward I say.
 
VDV was not a "striker" for us.

I disagree that Bale has taken his place, Bale destroys opponents directly, VDV provided a touch more guile.

Stats are not misleading.
 
If can, you should include all the Cup goals and goals-per-minute ratio. I think goals-per-game ratio is misleading as many of those players didn't play the full matches. Players like Rebrov and Pavly played less than 15 mins in many of those games.
