10 Premier League strikers that proved age doesn't matter

(#2 Teddy Sheringham (Manchester United))

Teddy Sheringham

Although the Manchester United treble-winning side will mostly be remembered for the deadly strike partnership of Andy Cole and Dwight Yorke along with that stoppage-time winner by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in the Champions League final against Bayern Munich, Teddy Sheringham’s contribution to the team simply cannot be overlooked. He came off the bench to score the first goal in a 2-0 win against Newcastle in the FA Cup final. He also emerged from the bench later that week to not only score a stoppage-time equaliser but also provide the headed flick-on for Solskjaer’s famous winner. The last of his four seasons at Old Trafford saw Sheringham gain more pitch time for Man United as his 15 league goals helped secure a third consecutive title. The 34-year-old was also named the PFA and Football Writers’ Association Footballer of the Year whilst re-establishing himself as an England regular.
