After last season's success, Didier Drogba and Wayne Rooney will be the leading contenders for the Premier League Golden Boot. Carlos Tevez is a great player but isn't prolific enough in front of goal.
Marouane Chamakh, an intriguing option at 32.0, certainly has talent and if he takes to the Premier League, then he could make a big impact.
Fernando Torres would be my bet at 9.0. It's ridiculous to say that he's finished just because of a few niggling injuries. Despite winning the World Cup, he had a poor tournament by his high standards.
People are talking about clubs offering £50 million for him but, as Manchester United discovered following the sale of Cristiano Ronaldo, the money is only good if the manager can find someone as good to replace him. If Torres stays at Liverpool, as looks likely, he will be as big a goal threat as he always has been.
Recommended bet: Back Fernando Torres to be top goalscorer at 9.0
Will it be Torres' year? Have your say below...
