Wayne Rooney

With another full fixture list in the 2017-18 Premier League season scheduled for the weekend of Dec. 16, there are plenty of opportunities to place bets on goalscorers. Is this the weekend Mohamed Salah is overtaken at the top of the Golden Boot standings?

Twenty seven goals were scored on Week 16 of the 2017-18 Premier League season and with a full schedule of fixtures taking place across December 12-13, we should see many more goals scored. Have the recent goals altered the betting odds for the Golden Boot? In a nutshell, yes. Let’s see what is going on.

Wayne Rooney has returned to the club that launched his career, Everton, after Manchester United let him go on a free transfer. Many think Rooney is way past his prime, but can he rediscover his goalscoring touch for the Toffees this season and bang in more than 10 goals in the Premier League?

Wayne Rooney has returned to Everton after 13 years at Manchester United and Romelu Lukaku has gone the other way. Although it was not essentially a swap deal, one has to believe there was some bartering between the two management teams when they were finalizing the £75 million transfer of Lukaku to the Red Devils. Both players are excellent, but which team has got the better deal?
