Football Tips: Phil Thompson's Premier League Top Scorer Picks

Premier League Top Goal Scorer Tips

Erling Haaland
Harry Kane
Mo Salah

Erling Haaland destroyed the Premier League in his debut season for Manchester City last term, firing 36 goals as they stormed to the title.

The Norwegian monster is Paddy’s odds-on favourite to retain his top-flight top-scorer crown this season, but does Paddy Power ambassador Phil Thompson think anyone can stop him?

In short; no. And who can blame him?

But, ever the optimist, Thommo’s put up three potential candidates for your consideration and there’s a potential each-way play that could till pay even is Haaland has another record-breaking season.

THOMMO: I don’t think anybody would want to see anyone getting injured but that is the only way, by missing a lot of games, that Erling Haaland might not win the golden boot again this year.

I am going for Haaland and I’ve got Harry Kane to try and push him, that’s if he remains at Tottenham. I do think that he will be moving on, though.

Then you come to Mo Salah. This is my top three. I’ve got Mo Salah sitting in there and Mo still scored a lot of goals last year in a poor season for liverpool.

He still played well. I’ve gone through the other teams and I’m not looking at anybody, an out and out striker who’s going to score enough goals, to challenge these three players.
