Euro 2008 Top Goalscorer?

does any else think ballack to be top goalscorer at this years championship. i think this because germany are in an easy group, ballack takes frees and pens, ballacks finished the season very well, has a goal ratio of 86 caps 36 goals and always performes in the big games

Update:

I thought about Van Nistelrooy but I don't think Holland will get through the group of death and only playing three games will not be enough to secure top scorer

    I'll take Klose over Ballack. Klose is a natural finisher and will be up front more.

    Plus, look at the World Cup goals he scored.

  • Ballack has a lot of competition for goals on the German roster but you have a point about him taking PKs and FKs. I believe Klose will be Germany's top goal scorer based on his position and form.

    My initial thought for top scorer was Fernando Torres but both he and David Villa are big time scoring strikers for Spain so one could take from the others final tally in the end.

    Cristiano Ronaldo is my pick because he will score conventional goals in addition to adding to his tally by taking PKs and FKs from range (in the same fashion as Ballack). Also, I believe Portugal will advance to at least the Semis. These factors combined really give him an edge over a lot of the other scoring forwards in my opinion.

    i would say that ballack has a good shot at being the top goalscorer in the tournament. However i believe Fernando Torres, Cristiano Ronaldo, or Ruud Van Nistelrooy (sorry if spelled incorrectly) will be the leading scorer in the tournament. Ribery and Toni also have a shot. We'll have to wait and see.

    Ballack doesnt perform in big games, see all of his performances in Champ league final's.

    Look out for Anelka, Henrys got an injury, Ribery too, which makes him the target man up front.

    Current odds for him, 100/1. I put a bet on that today!!!

    I think it's got to be a striker like Klose, Torres or even David Villa.

    Ballack will probably score but not in excess.

    I'd have to pick Klose over Ballack as a top scorer

    But Ballack's still one of the players to watch this summer...
