Championship Top Scorer

Fri Aug 26, 2011 12:18 pm

Wrote a new article on who I think could be this year's top scorer: http://www.football-lad.com/who-will-be-this-years-championship-top-scorer/

Despite playing for one of the worst teams in the league Nicky Maynard still manages to score so I fancy him this year.

What does everyone else think about the players I talked about, do you think anyone else has a chance? :ayatollah:

Bit of a wildcard, but Kevin Phillips - I know he's just short of 40, but he could still be at a low end Prem club. Also scored 4 from 4 in the league so far this season.

Good shout! Can't believe how he's still playing this high at such an age, he looks as sharp as any other striker from what I've seen so far!

If Maynard is playing in a weak team (bristol city), the chances will dry up sooner or later. If he moves to a stronger team however (Leicester City), he will definitely be worth a punt

You could also say that he's that good a player who can create and score chances by himself, regardless of the team but yeh he'd definitely score more at a better team.

if Miller or Earnshaw get in form, it could be either of these two, otherwise i reckon Mackail-Smith.
