========================================

Didn't realise that Villa was so low on the list!

Messi, Eto'o and Dinho all make the list, proving what an amazing front three they still are.

RVN also proving many of his doubters wrong

Villa contributes a lot more than Goals though

So Torres has just one less then Villa , 3 pens I think.

soldado 1 behind torres and 2 behind villa i guess that means hes with 20 million pounds

Luis wrote:Villa contributes a lot more than Goals though

You would say that

He scored 20+ the season before I seem to beleive anyhow.

True - he's like Berbatov for Spurs this season - the goal total belies th true worth he has been for the team as a whole - its still a bit surprising though

hes got 7-8 goals in his first season in spain in the segunda right? vela still has a couple more years before he makes a name for himself

And Sinamo Pongolle went for 2.5 m I think.

It's all gone a bit quiet about Villa now, it's more Teves talk, but no one will know 'till the summer, I'm more concerned about left midfield, there aren't many quality wingers on the market, only Quarsma and Simao have been mentioned, and if we cant get them there isn't anyone else really

I was joking - Vela's been playing on the left wing so its hardly comparable - not a bad tally for a winger though

Pretty much the same amount as we let go of Forlan.

Forlan >>>> Smith.

Rosina? see my thread on him in this section - he's said he wants to join your club

Villa hasn't had a particularly good season. Many fans outside of La Liga seem to think he has though.

David Silva has been Valencia's best attacking player all season, and Joaquin has also been very good over the past couple of months. They're going to have problems (good ones) next season when Vicente comes back, because he'd looked good too when he's been fit.

I imagine horseface will finish top goal scorer.

Liverpool have already bought a LW; Leto.

Don't know much about Rosina, has he got a good reputation in Italy?

Luis wrote:Don't know much about Rosina, has he got a good reputation in Italy?

Yeh, just get bluenine talking about him and you'll have to wipe your face down with a Kleenex afterwards

He says he's Italy's hottest young player - a goalscoring midfielder - got a great touch and agility too mixed in with some directness - he's like a version of Gonazales but can play on both wings, has a better touch and is a better dribbler but with about the same pace

Check out youtube: Alessandro Rosina

For me Milito with 20 for Zaragoza stands out on that list...

i said last summer we should have bought him and ditched el niño

Portilla is a goalscorer and not much else.

Vela is more of a 'forward' - great touch, technique - more of a Messi

Eto'o 11 goals in 15/16 games rate must be the one of the best striker rates in europe

As compared to 34 in 31 ?

:whistle:

Alves has had a great season lets see him do it one more year.

I like how Ze Germans were singing the praises of Gomes yet he only got 14 goals in the end after a poor second half of the season. Alves owned him in that one

Forlán's 15 is also pretty impressive considering that Víllarreal went missing for 6 months..

The ex-EPL players seem to be showing their stuff in La Liga. Do you think this may signal more La liga teams investing in EPL strikers?

no not really... RVN wouldn't have made it if it wasn't for Capello's style. Kanouté is probably a fluke... I serousily doub that he will score that much next season. Sevilla would do very well if they could sell him back to the EPL..

S America and la Segunda will continue to be the main target ground for Spanish teams.

Thats why most United fans like him even after he left, they could see he had bundles of talent he just couldn't make it in the Premier league.

Still Forlan >>> Smith.

He's a great player but just a tad too inconsistent..
