Striking Success

Last updated : 30 September 2008 By Tom Vickers
One look at the Premiership top scorers list shows that Villa have two of the most lethal strikers in the league.
Gabby Agbonlahor and John Carew sit joint second, with only Wigan's Egyptian hot shot Amr Zaki ahead of them.
The Claret and Blue currently lie in the top three and are just one point off the league leaders, albeit with only six games gone.
And it isn't hard to see why the team is in such impressive form as the effective speedy and strong partnership continue to put the ball in the back of the net.
Of course, much of the strikers' success is down to the players behind them and with wing wizard Ashley Young and midfield maestro Gareth Barry pulling the strings, goals should be a given.
But, Carew and Agbonlahor have undoubted qualitites of their own which make them one of the most feared and revered partnerships in the top flight.
They have the ideal chance to exhibit their scoring credentials once again at Chelsea this weekend.
