Championship Top Scorer

Anyone think Akinbiyi is looking value for this?
Before you all die of laughter, he scored 35 goals in this division when he was playing for Wolves, had a disaster fo a spell at Leicester in the prem admittedly, but then went back to Stoke, scoring at a respectable rate in a defensive team. Last season with Burnley he scored 4 goals in 9 games and now has 2 goals in 3 games this season.
Im basing the fact he has a chance of going close on the 35 goals he scored for Wolves 3-4 seasons back. He obviously thrives at this level and i think the 35.0 available on betfair is there to be taken - even with a view to laying it off later in the season.

Re: Championship Top Scorer

He is a good player Ewok and i agree he could score 20+ goals but im not sure if he will be able to do that at Burnley under Cotteril. They were one of the worst teams for goals last year and it remains to be seen if Cotteril will change his tactics. They have signed a few good attacking midfield players however, like Elliot and O'connor so that looks encouraging. Not sure Ewok, id probably push for around the 50/1 mark.

I cant see akinbiyi doing it, hes just had a good start and will fade away....Derbys Rasiak would be a far better bet.
