Premier League: Predicting 11 Top Scorers 2014/15

Bosh! Eat their goals.

Now that the transfer window has closed, Premier League managers can rest safe in the knowledge that, for a few months at least, there will be no more bids or unsettling rumours to negatively affect their most prized assets. Meanwhile, other coaches will have to hope that their best players find top form and avoid succumbing to the kind of costly injuries that can severely dent aspirations of winning silverware come the end of the season. Some, like Chelsea and Manchester City, took care of business early doors, bolstering their already-impressive squads and moving on players who were deemed surplus to requirements. Other teams, including Manchester United and Hull, made substantial purchases towards the end of the transfer window and will have to wait and see if their investments will ultimately prove astute. Each year, a couple of unexpected names find themselves standing shoulder to shoulder with more lauded peers among the top goal scorers of the season €“ who would have thought Jay Rodriguez would be one of the deadliest strikers in 2013/14? €“ but a few usual suspects tend to crop up year on year. However, Premier League clubs have just set a new record for total expenditure in a transfer window as increased TV revenues have given even the smaller clubs the opportunity to flex some financial muscle, so expect some new faces to be in contention this time round. Last year's top scorer, the mercurial menace Luis Suárez, managed to score 31 goals despite being banned for the first five league matches and while that target will be tough for anyone to match, his move to Barcelona means that someone else will be taking home the Golden Boot this season. Of course, there€™s always the chance that faltering form and injury problems will prove a hindrance, but here are 11 players likely to figure near the top of the goal-scoring charts come May.
