Some interesting analysis from Sky Sports.

The broadcaster looking at the goals scored in the Premier League across the 2023/24 season.

Sky Sports concentrating especially on goals scored by English players.

As they point out, six English players featured in the list of top 10 goalscorers.

Including four of the top six places:

31 Erling Haaland

22 Cole Palmer

21 Alexander Isak

19 Phil Foden

19 Ollie Watkins

19 Dominic Solanke

18 Mohamed Salah

17 Son Heung-Min

16 Jarrod Bowen

16 Bukayo Saka

Sky Sports though looking at the full picture as well, with in total 369 goals scored by English players.

This is the highest by English players since 2002:

Newcastle United may not have had any English players amongst the top ten Premier League scorers, however, they have had plenty of independent English players who have scored PL goals.

Newcastle United English players – Premier League goals during 2023/24 season

10 Anthony Gordon

9 Callum Wilson

6 Sean Longstaff

4 Harvey Barnes

2 Jacob Murphy

2 Dan Burn

1 Lewis Miley

1 Joe Willock

1 Jamaal Lascelles

1 Kieran Trippier

1 Tino Livramento

I can’t imagine any other Premier League team had as many as 11 different English scorers, as Newcastle United did.

Those 11 NUFC players above scoring 38 Premier League goals between them.
