  The Reds hot-shot is aiming to become the fastest foreign player to reach 30 goals in The Premier League after his remarkable debut campaign in England.

  After recovering from a hamstring injury, the classy Spain striker is expected to feature in the encounter against The Baggies on Saturday and a goal would see him set a new benchmark figure.

  With 29 goals from 39 appearances, he has five games to net to break Ruud van Nistelrooy's record.

  However, Englishmen Andy Cole, Kevin Phillips and Alan Shearer are ahead of him in terms of the race to 30 goals.

  with their kinda defences that they had during Andy Cole's time, and probably to a certain extend King Kiv's unable to soak up pressure when deep in the pressure cooker, there is no way they're able to substain the entire season, 2nd is already very good for them liao..
