      You laugh, but if he maintains his current trajectory, he will be number one in about five years’ time.

      Man’s got a goals per game ratio that Ali Daei himself would be proud of.

          I mean, he’s just turned 30, and he needs 46 more goals to overtake him. Ronaldo probably can’t keep going past the next euros you would have thought, so maybe the target will end up around 50.

          Lukaku’s averaging about 8 goals per year, and it’s not like there are any red hot young Belgian strikers in place to surpass him. So if he keeps going past the next world cup, then there is a small chance; weirder things have happened.
