With the 99% chance of an Anthony Martial goal tonight, can anyone think of any other players that always seem to score against us?

Shaun Goater and David Nugent are a quick first two I can think of.

Vardy...Oh wait :D

Definitely the above come to mind, Goater and Aguero being the two that really stick in the mind.

Jeppo was always prolific in games that involved Burnley. Until we signed him that is......

Goater is the main one that always springs to mind. He did the half time draw at the 2-2 in December 2014 at the Etihad and I am sure we man marked him, just in case.....

Ha ha! Hey Boss do you remember that ridiculous 'goal' he scored against us at the Turf when he didn't even know he'd bloody done it. It bounced off his leg from a clearance and he looked shocked. Gave them a very very late draw after we dominated them. :oops: :oops: :oops:

In recent years it feels like zaha always has a good game against us. (We never have a plan for him)
And has a few goals against us too.

Jimmy Greaves, way back when. Mind you, I think he used to score against everybody.

Amazing striker (back when they were still centre forwards). Not seen his stats but I bet they are up there with the best. Hated Spurs at that time.

He also scored four for Brighton against us in 1992/93 - two at the Goldstone Ground and two at the Turf

Another who seems to score at ease against us is Aubameyang.

'Not seen his stats but I bet they are up there with the very best'
Wonderful stats for goal-scoring with those as a youth player at Chelsea almost beyond belief. For me not just up there with the best but out on his own as the best.
Re; Jordan Rhodes, I went to watch our U'23's at Curzon in November v Sheff We'd and he scored the first goal of the game.

David Crown for Southend and Gillingham, another bench mark to indicate our progression.

Did nothing else though other than commit a couple of nasty fouls.

Could be wrong but didn't Phil "the ghost" Clarkson bag a few against us for Blackpool,
Also feels like Jason Koumas used to regularly net for Tranmere too as well as WBA was it?
Possibly Geoff Horsfield too?

Yeah Vardy always seemed to nick one against us until Divine Intervention on Sunday :) He'll never score at TM against us again.
