[TrippyLondoner]

David Villa.

 

[ivebeenhigh]

Fabiano

 

[Diamond]

David Villa is the right bet but RvP might well have something to say in the matter.

 

[Maggot]

Kaka

Peter Crouch

Peter Crouch

All from the bench.

 

[AverageJoe]

Luis Fabiano or Messi.

Messi was denied a hat trick today by some unbelievable 'keeping.

Luis Fabiano has 25 goals from 38 caps.

 

[Dandred]

After watching the game against Nigeria and how many chances Messi had I would have to go with him.

 

[Idaho]

All from the bench.

Even from the bench I bet he outscores Heskey

 

[TruXta]

Torres. Cuz he's back and well fucking up for it, and cuz i hope ESpain huh-wins.

 

[The Octagon]

Peter Crouch

All from the bench.

I bet if we go all the way to the semis this ^^^ will not be far wrong.

 

[ChrisFilter]

Heskey, obviously. He starting to show some promise after a good couple of seasons at Leicester.

 

[rosa]

Peter Crouch

I've got a couple of quid on him to finish as England's top scorer, and a couple of quid on Messi to finish top scorer of the tournament. Yesterday's football did not make for enjoyable viewing.

Of the 8 goals scored so far, none has been by a striker.

Of the 8 goals scored so far, none has been by a striker.

Interesting that, isn't it?

A real marker of the play so far has been the absence of any true strikers.

This false nine phenomenon seems to have developed to such an extent that you could make a perfectly good argument that not a single team has fielded a player in a number 9 position so far.

The tide will turn with some kind of partnership.

Remember those?

Striking partnerships?

At last, a striker scores. Took a penalty to do it though.
