In terms of consistency no other striker in PL history comes close to Henry.
He was here for 8 seasons and won 4 Golden Boots, 50% Golden Boot ratio is absurd.
Just to put it in perspective, Aguero, who many now regard as one of the all time great PL strikers is in his 8th season with City but only has one Golden Boot so far.

Hmmmm - Think you've got the tinted Arsenal glasses on again ....
Alan Shearer - 16 seasons three clubs - 379 goals - 3 Golden Boots
Most goals in Premier League history: 260 goals
Most Premier League goals in a 42-game season: 34
Most Premier League hat-tricks: 11
Most Premier League penalties scored: 56
Most Premier League goals scored from inside the box: 227
Most Premier League goals in a single match: 5
and as for consistency - Henry managed 5 EPL seasons with 20 plus goals - Kane is on his fifth 20+ season already and he's only 25 .... Henry didn't reach that landmark until he was thirty ...
Henry was a feckin' magician but for consistency Shearer, and probably in time Kane will end up with all the records ....

Henry - 792 games 360 goals
Shearer - 734 games 379 goals
So Shearer was somehow less consistent even though he scored more goals in less games? and he did it for more EPL seasons as well .... hmmmm

Lot of arsenal bias here which is understandable
