12 - Yorke - United, Sunderland, Blackburn, Villa

[Jimmy Floyd]

Drog Bar (thanks Motty) - 24

Emile Heskey might be one of them but I'm trying to count his clubs. Leicester, Liverpool, Villa, erm, Wigan, Birmingham, I think that makes him number 20.

19. Sheringham - Man Utd, Spurs, West Ham

Edit- oh. Maybe 17 then. He may have only played for WH in the Championship.

[Disco]

He has more clubs and more goals than that.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Ian Wright for Arsenal and West Ham, but I'm not sure how many he bagged/notched/struck/fired home before football began in 1992 so dunno the position. Probably the 113, on balance.

[Spammer]

I'm gonna take a punt and say Ian Wright, with Arsenal and West Ham.

He might not have made it as he scored a few before the PL, but we'll see.

[Jimmy Floyd]

No one seems to have said Thierry Onree for number five.

Defoe will be in there somewhere. If we count his spells with Tottenham and Portsmouth once each then I'll go with number 7.

[CJay]

Van Persie for 11? Arsenal and Man Utd
