Prolific hitman Phillips tips Lukaku, Kane, Aguero & Morata to smash records this season in hot pursuit of Prem’s goalscoring gong

GOLDEN BOOT champion Kevin Phillips believes a glut of Premier League goalscoring records could fall to the Fab Four heading the charts.

Romelu Lukaku (seven in as many games), Harry Kane, Sergio Aguero and Alvaro Morata (six each) have all hit their stride in the first two months of the season.

“Lukaku, Kane, Aguero and Morata are all in teams who play in the Champions League. Their squads are stacked with quality from back to front, and they create a lot of chances every week.

“At first, I wasn’t sure if that applied so much to Morata, but then he picked the ball up from the halfway line at Stoke, ran past three or four opponents and
