For Michael Owen, this is truly a case of what could have been. He deserves to be on the list because his 150 goals are very good, but he could have scored more if he hadn't had so many injuries and moved to Real Madrid.
However, he was a great goal scorer on his day. His best Premier League season was in 2001/02,

Lampard scored double figures in the Premier League for a remarkable ten seasons in a row.
His best season came in 2009/10, when the Blues won another league title thanks to his 22 goals.

5. Sergio Aguero – 184 goals
Sergio Aguero celebrates a Man City goal This summer, Aguero's time at Manchester City came to an end.
The striker leaves as one of the Premier League's best ever and one of City's best ever goal scorers.

In six of his ten seasons with the club, Aguero scored 20 or more goals in the Premier League.
He had 26 goals in his best season in 2014/15. Pep Guardiola will have a difficult, if not impossible, task ahead of him in replacing Aguero.
4. Andrew Cole,goals 187

Cole scored 34 goals for Newcastle in his first season in the Premier League.
He didn't even come close to matching that total, but it did win him a move to Old Trafford.
He also scored twice each for Blackburn and Fulham and scored five goals or more for Manchester United. a prolific goal scorer.
3. Harry Kane, scored 193 goals
making him the only player on the list who hasn't retired. His status as the third-highest goal scorer in league history demonstrates how consistent Kane has been for Tottenham.
In the last nine Premier League seasons, Kane has scored at least 30 goals, his highest total being in season 17/18.
If Kane stays healthy, he might become the most prolific goal scorer in Premier League history.
His goal scoring prowess doesn't seem to slow down as he gets older. Kane might be able to become the new top goal scorer only if he gets hurt or moves abroad.
2.wayne Rooney,golas 208
Before the CL final in 2008, Wayne Rooney had scored 208 goals.
The statistics that Wayne Rooney posted during his time at Manchester United are truly remarkable.
When he came back to Everton, he scored ten league goals and reached double figures in the Premier League 11 times.
Even though Rooney played in the Premier League for both Everton and United, the Old Trafford club won five league titles thanks to his goals there. Ironically, his best season was in 2011/12, when he scored 27 goals and United did not win the title.
Rooney's skill as a goal scorer is something that should be remembered for many years to come.
That kind of consistency is extremely difficult to match, and perhaps only Harry Kane comes close among current players.
1. Alan Shearer – 260 goals
Despite the fact that he is now better known as a pundit, Shearer was unquestionably the best goal scorer in the early years of the Premier League.
Shearer was a devastating finisher, as evidenced by the fact that he holds the lead in scoring by more than 50 goals.
He scored 30 or more goals on three occasions in Blackburn's four Premier League seasons.
He brought that extraordinary form to Newcastle, where he scored at least 20 goals four times.
