Preparing your football challenge…
David Hirst
England · Forward
Sheffield Wednesday's talisman and owner of one of the fiercest shots the English game has produced, David Hirst scored 13 in 30 in 1995-96. He once rattled a strike against Arsenal that was clocked among the quickest ever recorded. Injuries, and Wednesday's reluctance to sell, meant England never really saw the best of him.
