Salah reached 193 and keeps climbing as the only active row near the top. Cole 187 and Aguero 184 follow with the best rate here at 0.67 per match. Lampard 177 is the top midfielder ever. Henry 175, Fowler 163 and Defoe 162 pack the next three. Owen 150, Ferdinand 149, Sheringham 146 and Van Persie 144 close a table where every row cleared 140.
How to use it
Pick two scorers and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 Shearer against Defoe to see the scoring gap. All rows are Premier League regular season goals.
All rows are Premier League goals only, matching league stats tables. First Division goals before 1992 stay out, which is why Shearer Southampton goals are excluded and his total starts at Blackburn. Cup and European goals stay out for the same reason. Salah is the only active row: his total moves during the season, so the page pins the May 2026 Opta figure and dates it.
