FOOTBALL QUESTION DU JOUR 13:32 - Jul 21 with 1044 viewsPatfromPoole

When was the last time a teenage striker scored more than 6 goals in a Prem season?

I have no idea.

Going to guess Michael Owen.

Last year, Mason Greenwood.

Although he famously scored a hat-trick v Arsenal when he was 17, surprisingly Shearer didn't manage it in the old First Division. Wayne Rooney did it after Owen but of course, what you are driving at is that Broja scored 6 last season. Mara could score more. Let's hope he does.

Highest scoring teenagers in Premier League history:

Michael Owen — 46 goals.
Robbie Fowler — 35 goals.
Wayne Rooney — 30 goals.
Mason Greenwood — 20 goals
Nicolas Anelka — 19 goals

Cap doffed, Mr. Doone.

Mason Greenwood, ah he has disappeared off the face of the earth, so easy to forget he was a promising striker back in the day.

Well yes, Nick said we needed to replace Broja, who scored “only” 6 goals, and indicated this should be fairly straightforward, not least as Broja wasn’t that good.

We shall see.

You are right though, Pat. It is relatively rare for a teenager to score many goals at Premier League level, which is why Broja attracted so much attention. I still wonder whether we might have written off Obafemi too soon.

Yes, you're probably right. I'll delete that bit: too much information. Sometimes my posts are about as exciting as a page out of a phone directory.

I think Paddy Obafemi was possibly a bit too much of a loose cannon on and off the pitch, allegedly…..

It's the PL. If you are good enough then any behaviour is indulged. Obafemi was probably more trouble than he was worth.

I am not sure that Obafemi’s attitude towRds being professional week after week will improve.

Pat before you pose a question you should do your research, Broja had turned 20 a month before he got his first goal for Saints in the Premier League so didn't fall into the teenager bracket.

Handily, my research tells me that our new hotshot from Bordeaux will be 20 in a couple of weeks, so he won’t be a teenager by the start of the season.

Happy days.
