European Golden Boot Standings – 2006/2007
Last Updated: 19th June 2007
Francesco Totti is the 2006/2007 Golden Boot winner, scoring 52 points and finishing 1 goal ahead of Real Madrid’s Ruud van Nistelrooy and a point ahead of Afonso Alves. Freddie Kanoute and Didier Drogba led the standings back in February but a late surge by the Italian and the Dutchman (and with Afonso Alves continued hot streak) those two fell away from the lead.
I have no idea why the table is completely messed up and pushed all the way down – for now just scroll down (a long way down) until you see the table. Sorry folks.

not very fair really, IS IT???? some poor sod got 31 goals their and you take it away from him because his league is pants! you’d have been better off not to invlude them!!!
February 23rd, 2007 @ 15:29I think it’s down to the fact that the English league is harder for strikers to excel due to the physical approach of the Premiership defenders. In Spain or Italy, players tend to have more space because defenders there are more passive and a little less physical.
February 23rd, 2007 @ 20:48Are there no defenders in estonia & armenia ppl scoring 27 goals easily
February 23rd, 2007 @ 21:53James – tough leagues vs easier leagues. Come on mate, you should know that by now
February 24th, 2007 @ 00:57How many goals in Sunday League would you need to get on that list?
February 24th, 2007 @ 04:57I think that Drogba will win the Golden Boot…. What do you all say, friends???
March 11th, 2007 @ 16:49where is Kris Boyd and Klaas Jan Huntelaar they have both scored barrel loads of goals to be in that chart?
Boyd – 19
March 18th, 2007 @ 19:34Huntelaar – 17
Where is Roy Makaay!!!!!FUCK
May 30th, 2007 @ 23:52If you want 5 best strikers in the world i will give it to you-David Trezeguet,Ruud Van Nistelrooy,Roy Makaay Andrey Shevchenko and Maksim Gruznov
May 30th, 2007 @ 23:54Chintan you fool!There are defenders bur these strikers are to good for them you piece of shit!!!
May 30th, 2007 @ 23:57Where are you from Ali
May 30th, 2007 @ 23:59“David Trezeguet,Ruud Van Nistelrooy,Roy Makaay Andrey Shevchenko and Maksim Gruznov”
May 31st, 2007 @ 02:15’5 best strikers in the world’
ridiculous statement to make. Its hilarious, I think RVN is the only one who deserves to be in that list. Your missing names like Rooney, Henry, Etoo, Villa, Drogba just to name a few. And shevchenko on current form!?
May 31st, 2007 @ 02:17Dont even need to discuss that last name you got there. enuff said
Where is Billy Sharp in that list with 30 league goals this season?
May 31st, 2007 @ 16:32AK-If you now better strikers tnan those who I named on this list, you will say it to me!!!
June 10th, 2007 @ 13:34Van Nistelrooy needs one goal to equal Totti’s total, and two to win the European Golden Boot!
June 10th, 2007 @ 13:56I think that Brazilian striker Afonso ALves should go to Chelsea or Manchester United.He is fantastic striker and he will prouve that if some of the bigger European club be smart and buy the new star of strikers!
June 10th, 2007 @ 14:42What do you think,you bunch of ,,WE DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT FOOTBALL,HA”!!!!!
June 10th, 2007 @ 14:46This article was originally written on 23rd Feb 2007 and updated today (19th June 2007) to reflect the eventual winners. That should explain the comments, I hope.
June 19th, 2007 @ 22:30Maksim Gruznov is clearly not that good, he plays in the estonian league and he scored 31 goals or something, wich seems not to outstanding compared to alves scoring 34 in an obviously better league. I don’t think trezeguet has scored more than 15 goals in the last 4 seasons. Roy makaay hasn’t played regular football all season or last year, so he won’t be one of the top any more, still good tho, and why would you include shevchenko if he only scored 5 goals all season, we don’t know if he lost form or if he just isn’t good enough for the premiership… David Villa is better, so is eto’o, henry,totti, ibrahimovic and lots of others.
June 19th, 2007 @ 23:02ronaldinho scored this season?!!
June 20th, 2007 @ 03:09i think teams shud win golden boot awards, for the largest goal difference or goals scored. sure man united would top it
June 20th, 2007 @ 03:11where on earth is kaka?all the people who made up the list sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
June 20th, 2007 @ 13:01Edu – Kaka didn’t score as many league goals as these guys.
June 20th, 2007 @ 13:04lmao trezegeut one of the 5 best strikers in the world?
he Couldn’t even top score n the Serie B!
Henry,Villa,Torres,Eto’o,Drogba
There’s ure top5 son
hmmm rvn is good but not top 5
June 20th, 2007 @ 13:34kaka’s goals came in the european cup not in the league
June 20th, 2007 @ 13:48Eduardo da Silva could be an absolute steal if anyone bothered to pick him up. He’s the one who scored the second against England.
June 21st, 2007 @ 17:17It’s interesting to see that 4 of the top 6 all ply their trade in Spain.
and I’m with you Chris, da Silva has been the nuts for Croatia. I don’t understand how nobody’s scouts have decided he’d be a better buy than a 17mil Darren Bent…
June 22nd, 2007 @ 00:32What about Mario Jardel!!!He won European Golden Boot twice when he scored 38 goals for Porto and fantastic 42 goals for Sporting Lisabon!!!!!He is fantastic striker:125 games-130 goals for Porto,49 games-53 goals for Sporting Lisabon and 24 games-22 goals for Galatasaray!!!!!!!!!!And in Champions League he scored 10 goals in one season for Porto and was also the top scorer of that competition!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
June 22nd, 2007 @ 18:08Raul was the best striker in the world years ago,but he can be even now if he works much harder.He is the leading striker in Champions League with 56 goals!Raul was also topscorer in Primera for two times-one in 1999 when he scored 25 goals and the other time was 2001-24 goals!!!He won the bronze bott of Europe for two times and in C.L.He scored 10 goals for two seasons ahead!!!!!!!!!!
July 21st, 2007 @ 21:41[...] only did Alves score some 34 league goals in just 31 games last season, a phenomenal record that is belittled by UEFA’s Golden Boot league-specific co-efficients, but he did so in some style, with many of his goals coming after Ronaldo (at Inter and Barca) [...]
October 11th, 2007 @ 00:23I agree with you.Afonso Alves is one of the best striker in the Europe at the moment!He scored 7 GOALS in one game two weaks ago!!!!!
October 23rd, 2007 @ 16:46i think they should include how good the player’s team i. rsly, somebody who scores 20 goals for derby county is much better than someone who gets 30 goals for one of the big four.
October 27th, 2007 @ 06:21Mare footballer your top5 are all target men you haven’t included any centre forwards. The people who do the real work to make their goals they have pace and technique and creativity as well as finishing and composure, they don’t just walk into a position and put the ball in the net, Villa, Eto’o, Henry, Tevez and maybe Torres these guys are the
January 4th, 2008 @ 02:42Can someone explain to me what the V column means?
January 4th, 2008 @ 07:54Yes Danny You’re right
February 14th, 2008 @ 19:50for Shohan Khan …
Column V is value of the league…
