12 - Yorke - United, Sunderland, Blackburn, Villa
12 - Yorke - United, Sunderland, Blackburn, Villa
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.
Bolded are correct, feel free to guess the positions but it's not essential.
1. 260 - Shearer - (Blackburn/Newcastle)
2. 195 - Rooney - (Everton/Man.Utd)
3. 187 - Cole - (Newcastle/Man.Utd/Blackburn/Fulham/Man.City/Portsmouth)
4. 177 - Lampard - (West Ham/Chelsea/Man.City)
5. 175 (1)
6. 163 - Fowler - (Liverpool/Leeds/Man.City)
7. 155 (4)
8. 150 (4)
9. 149 - Ferdinand - (QPR/Newcastle/Tottenham/West Ham/Leicester/Bolton)
10. 146 (5)
11. 144 (2)
12. 127 (4)
13. 126 (6)
14. 125 (6)
15. 123 - Yorke - (Villa/Man.Utd/Blackburn/Sunderland +1)

23. 106 (6)
24. 104 - Drogba - (Chelsea)
25. 100 (1)
25. 100 - Peter Crouch - (6)
19. Sheringham - Man Utd, Spurs, West Ham
Edit- oh. Maybe 17 then. He may have only played for WH in the Championship.
He has more clubs and more goals than that.
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.
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.
No one seems to have said Thierry Onree for number five.
Wright, Sheringham (two clubs to go for him), and Henry in.
1. 260 - Shearer - (Blackburn/Newcastle)

13 is Robbie Keane. He had 6 clubs.
Or maybe 14.
Teddy also for Portsmouth and, erm, Fulham? Or Reading.
Jerrel Hasselbaink for 12. Leeds, Chelsea, Boro and Charlton.
8 - Michael Owen
Scholes must be one of the one club men seeing as he played for about 20 years. 22?
1. 260 - Shearer - (Blackburn/Newcastle)

25. 100 (1)
25. 100 - Peter Crouch - (6)
Edit: Had Aguero & Scholes the wrong way around.
Defoe will be in there somewhere. If we count his spells with Tottenham and Portsmouth once each then I'll go with number 7.
Van Persie for 11? Arsenal and Man Utd
Matt Le Tissier for 25?
1. 260 - Shearer - (Blackburn/Newcastle)

25. 100 - Le Tissier - (Southampton)
25. 100 - Peter Crouch - (6)
Owen was with Liverpool, Newcastle, Manchester United and Stoke.
One of the sixers will be some no mark journeyman like Darren Bent.
Owen's teams: Liverpool, Newcastle, Man United, Stoke (lol)
Teddy Sheringham played for Forest didn't he? Is that his missing team?
Anelka for Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, City, Notlob, and the East Bromwich Albion.
Crouch: Southampton, Portsmouth, Liverpool, Stoke, QPR and Villa? Not necessarily in that order.
Anelka with Arsenal, Chelsea, Bolton, Man City and two other teams I can't remember
edit: Never mind, covered already
