Best Goalscorers

[Fapuccino]

I think the best estimation for a goalscorer's ability that we have so far is goals (no penalties)/minute of play.

The rank of strikers (no penalties) based on this figure

The main error with this calculation is obviously difference in service. Nevertheless it is a good indicator of quality.

Serie A

Rossi - 154.5 goals/min (9 total)
Tevez - 147.6 (12)
Higuain - 207.5 (8)
Berardi - 201.4 (7)
Luca Toni - 161.5 (11)
Vidal - 202.3 (9)
Palacio - 193.2 (10)
Balotelli - 201.1 (7)
Llorente - 155.2 (9)

Anyhow the list goes on, but in Serie A using this criteria

1. Tevez
2. Rossi
3. Llorente


EPL

Suarez 81.8 (23)
Sturridge 88.4 (16)
Aguero 79.2 (15)
RVP 136.4 (9)

1. Aguero
2. Suarez
3. Sturridge

Bliga

Ramos 146.1 (12)
Lewandowski 173.3 (10)
Mandzukic 108.9 (12)
Aubameyang 121.1 (12)
Kiessling 185.3 (9)

1. Mandzukic
2. Aubameyang
3. Ramos

La Liga

CR7 108.1 (17)
D. Costa 116.5 (16)
Alexis 103.8 (14)
Messi 129.4

1. Alexis
2. CR7
3. D. Costa

Ligue 1

Ibra 164.8 (12)
Cavani 143.9 (11)
Falcao 198.4 (7)

Cavani best finisher in France even though he's playing in the wing to Ibra. No surprise since Zlatan has a lot more penalties.


Last season it was Messi, Ronaldo, Ibra that were in top 3.
