Kapil Vedhara: It’s a shame Shearer didn’t make the final. He may have a lower goals per game ratio that Henry, but he spent a good couple of years injured and playing in a poor NUFC team.

Dibs: Talk about rose-tinted glasses with Bergkamp - he scored 0.28 goals a game for Arsenal. Shearer on 0.6. He got 20 more assists, yes, but 160 fewer goals…

Azrael: Any club in the premier league would take any of these players. For me it's a very close call. Although Aquero and Henry have better goals to games ratio I'm going for Shearer. Just my opinion mind and on a different day may pick one of the others.
