# Who is Villa’s Best Ever Premier League Striker?

Over our long history, Aston Villa have had some very good strikers grace our hallowed turf.

Naturally, one could have lengthy and passionate debates about who they believe is the best striker they have seen in a Villa shirt over the years.

Therefore, I have decided to set up a duel in order to see who fans believe is the best forward that Villa have had during their time in the Premier League. I have chosen the Premier League era due to the fact that I am not old enough to clearly remember any Villa players who did not play for us in this league.

Playing this game is simple:

Go through the ten duels, selecting your ‘winner’ from each round. That winner continues to the next duel, to be pitted against a new striker. If he’s still your winner, select again. If not, choose the other striker.
