The Netherlands, Messi, Ronaldo, Lewandowski and Lukaku (Reuters)
The 2020/21 season in world football is marked by a particularly prominent phenomenon – pioneers who do not stop conquering. With Killian Ambape and Arling Holland stunning the entire globe with huge views in the Champions League, Cristiano Ronaldo, Leo Messi and Robert Lewandowski never stopping to break records, Romulo Lukaku just blossoms under Antonio Conte at Inter and Luis Suarez sows salt again over the question of Barcelona Who is the best? Just before entering the critical months of the season, time to analyze the biggest scorers you have to offer.
Robert Lewandowski
The list must be opened with FIFA’s player of the year and who at this stage seems to be the leading candidate for the European Golden Shoe title. Bayern Munich’s Polish is simply a well-oiled machine and anyone who thought that after the peak season last year there was nowhere to go – he should think again. Lewandowski has scored 26 goals in 21 league appearances this season. Yes, that’s not a mistake. After scoring his 500th career goal, he also became the first player ever to score 21 goals in half a season, with the record of goals for the season in Germany, which stands at 40 goals per season and belongs to the legendary Gerd Müller, set to be broken by him this season. phenomenon.
Luis Suarez
When you see the Uruguayan striker star in an Atletico uniform, the season always comes up and the same question comes up – how the hell did Barcelona give up on him? With 16 goals in 20 appearances that have already given him a salary upgrade (Atletico certainly did not expect it to come so quickly) and in two assists, Suarez just fits like a glove next to Diego Simeone’s lineup at Atletico Madrid, which he leads for a phenomenal season, despite the less good period recently. Messi misses.
Romulo Lukaku
The Belgian tank just seems unstoppable. After the well-publicized confrontation with Zlatan Ibrahimovic, the Inter striker provided answers on the pitch and thanks to the huge goal he scored in a 3-0 win over AC Milan in a derby that widened the Narazzi’s gap from the Rossoneri to 4 points, he also overtook Cristiano Ronaldo on his way to Serie A ‘With 17 conquests and also became the first player to score in 5 consecutive derby games, when in fact he scored in all the derby games in which he has played since joining Inter. Whether it ends in the first championship for Narazzi after 11 years or not – the Belgian justified the claims about the low score he received at FIFA at the beginning of the season.
Arling Holland
In the head, on the heel, on the right, on the left, from the ground and in the air – the Norwegian of Dortmund is just a walking phenomenon on two. As time goes on, this formidable scorer proves that alongside Ambape, he will not leave us orphans the day after Messi and Ronaldo. The numbers speak for themselves – 26 goals in 25 appearances in all competitions, when with 8 goals this season in the Champions League after the big duo in 2: 3 against Sevilla in the first game in the quarterfinals, he raised his balance to 18 goals in the factory. Scary to think where else he can go.
Cristiano Ronaldo
Even at the age of 36, when making such a list, wherever it may be, the Portuguese must be a part of it. The Juventus phenomenon continues to break records on a regular basis almost every time he goes up to the pitch and after passing Pele, he really does not intend to stop. This season, on the eve of the game against Crotone, he already has 16 goals in Serie A, another 4 in the Champions League, 2 in the Italian Cup and one in the Super Cup, which gave the champion a first title this season. Just endless
Leo Messi
After CR7, came the flea. In whatever order you choose. After the ongoing saga around him in the summer and while his future at Barcelona is still shrouded in fog, Messi continues to deliver the goods on the pitch and be the main, if not the only, executor of the Spanish runner-up. With 16 league goals, Messi leads the Pichichi table along with his good friend Suarez, and who even remembers that it took him nine rounds to score his first field goal of the season? In the absence of a proper ‘9 ‘striker, Messi in the imaginary striker position is the best alternative available to Ronald Koeman.
Killian Ambape
The huge performance of the 21-year-old striker and the monstrous hat-trick in 1: 4 over Barcelona in the quarter-finals of the Champions League proved once again that this is one of the two players whose feet are entrusted with the future of world football in the coming years. Ambape has scored 16 goals in the league this season and five more in the Champions League, and rumors and reports of a possible move to Real Madrid keep popping up from every corner. Meanwhile, he seems to be doing well at the French champions, although it has experienced a less than good season so far in terms of the local league, in which it ranks third.
Harry Kane
True, lately it’s going a little harder, but the Tottenham striker is reinventing himself at the age of 27. Unlike the other strikers on the list (apart from Messi), Kane also excels in the cooking aspect, with no less than 11 of them recording this season, most of them Jung Min-sun. , With whom he enjoys a particularly fruitful collaboration. Oh, yes, of course he ranks second in the table of conquerors in the Premier League with 13 conquests that leave Tottenham, somehow, in the picture of the place in Europe.
Zlatan Ibhimovic
Unfinished – these are the pair of words that best represent Zlatan Ibrahimovic. True, the championship dream has moved significantly away after the loss to Inter, but that does not detract from the Swedish giant’s big season, which with 14 league goals and two more in all competitions, leads the Rossoneri to a season that is well beyond expectations, all at 39. Amazing.
Mohammad Salah
Liverpool’s season is far from what it was expected to look like after winning its first championship in 30 years, but amid the dire results and terrible injury blow, the Egyptian striker / wing is an island of stability in Jurgen Klopp’s lineup. With 17 league goals (leading in the Premier League) and 24 in all competitions, Salah is a bit of an assumption that Liverpool fans have this season.
