Championship top scorers (1-2 games to go)

Mitrovic 43
Solanke 29
Joel Piroe 22

Last season in Pl

Mitrovic 3 (although 11 in 18/19)
Solanke 3
Piroe (ex PSV and 22 y.o) -

Never has the difference been so acute

Edit - The top 3 have shipped 39 goals each to Championship attacks. An average a goal a game against teams vastly inferior to the ones they will meet next season

To be fair, I think Solanke broke through last season and this season he was a much better striker than in his EPL stint. Curious how many he will score this season.

Mitrovic does seem like someone who will bang in goals at a slightly lower level, but this type of "pure" striker is a dying breed in the EPL for a good reason. Funnily, Lukaku belongs in the same category.
