Manchester City’s superb Argentine Sergio Aguero has played 99 Premier League matches, but has already scored more goals than a number of the top flight’s greatest ever strikers after they’d played the same number of games.
Find out where he ranks in terms of goals after 100 matches in Premier League history.
8) Thierry Henry – 59 goals
The Frenchman actually started relatively quietly, but went on to become Arsenal’s greatest ever player.
7) Luis Suarez – 62 goals
Suarez’s form for Liverpool earned him a £75m move to Barcelona this summer.
6) Robbie Fowler – 62 goals
Fowler burst onto the scene as a goal-poaching teenager with Liverpool.
5) Fernando Torres – 63 goals
Another ex-Liverpool forward on this list, Torres bagged for fun at Anfield, but couldn’t do the same for Chelsea following his £50m move.
4) Andy Cole – 63 goals
Cole scored plenty for Newcastle and Manchester United – winning a debut title in 1995/96 with the Red Devils.
3) Sergio Aguero – 64 goals (99 appearances)
Aguero’s current goalscoring record sees him on track to emulate the greatest ever top flight forwards.
2) Ruud Van Nistelrooy – 68 goals
The Dutchman was lethal for United for many years before joining Real Madrid for big cash after falling out with Sir Alex Ferguson.
1) Alan Shearer – 79 goals
Fittingly, the Premier League’s highest ever goalscorer also got to 100 in the shortest amount of time.
