Hi, everyone, Recently I was interested in whether we could try to retroactively reward the world's top scorers, European Golden Shoe style. As you know, the European Golden Shoe started in 1968, rewarding the top scorers from the European continent, considered the "best" continent and home to the best players on the planet. The 1990s saw the introduction of coefficients, categorizing the different leagues into minor and major, so to speak. Here's the current list of European Golden Boot winners: 2023 36 Erling Haaland Manchester City England Premier League 2022 35 Robert Lewandowski (2) Bayern Munich Germany Bundesliga 2021 41 Robert Lewandowski Bayern Munich Germany Bundesliga 2020 36 Ciro Immobile Lazio Italy Serie A 2019 36 Lionel Messi (6) Barcelona Spain La Liga 2018 34 Lionel Messi (5) Barcelona Spain La Liga 2017 37 Lionel Messi (4) Barcelona Spain La Liga 2016 40 Luis Suárez (2) Barcelona Spain La Liga 2015 48 Cristiano Ronaldo (4) Real Madrid Spain La Liga 2014 31 Luis Suárez Liverpool England Premier League 2014 31 Cristiano Ronaldo (3) Real Madrid Spain La Liga 2013 46 Lionel Messi (3) Barcelona Spain La Liga 2012 50 Lionel Messi (2) Barcelona Spain La Liga 2011 40 Cristiano Ronaldo (2) Real Madrid Spain La Liga 2010 34 Lionel Messi Barcelona Spain La Liga 2009 32 Diego Forlán (2) Atlético Madrid Spain La Liga 2008 31 Cristiano Ronaldo Manchester United England Premier League 2007 26 Francesco Totti Roma Italy Serie A 2006 31 Luca Toni Fiorentina Italy Serie A 2005 25 Thierry Henry (2) Arsenal England Premier League 2005 25 Diego Forlán Villarreal Spain La Liga 2004 30 Thierry Henry Arsenal England Premier League 2003 29 Roy Makaay Deportivo La Coruña Spain La Liga 2002 42 Mário Jardel (2) Sporting CP Portugal Primeira Liga 2001 35 Henrik Larsson Celtic Scottish Premier League 2000 30 Kevin Phillips Sunderland England Premier League 1999 36 Mário Jardel Porto Portugal Primeira Liga 1998 34 Nikos Machlas Vitesse Netherlands Eredivisie 1997 34 Ronaldo Barcelona Spain La Liga 1996 40 Zviad Endeladze Margveti Georgia (country) Umaglesi Liga 1995 39 Arsen Avetisyan Homenetmen Armenia Armenian Premier League 1994 43 David Taylor Porthmadog Wales League of Wales 1993 34 Ally McCoist (2) Rangers Scottish Premier Division 1992 34 Ally McCoist Rangers Scottish Premier Division 1991 34 Darko Pančev Red Star Belgrade Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia Yugoslav First League 1990 38 Hugo Sánchez Real Madrid Spain La Liga 1990 38 Hristo Stoichkov CSKA Sofia Bulgaria A PFG 1989 43 Dorin Mateuț Dinamo București Romania Liga I 1988 39 Tanju Çolak Galatasaray Turkey Süper Lig 1987 39 Toni Polster[a] Austria Wien Austrian Bundesliga 1986 37 Marco van Basten Ajax Netherlands Eredivisie 1985 39 Fernando Gomes (2) Porto Portugal Primeira Liga 1984 32 Ian Rush Liverpool England First Division 1983 36 Fernando Gomes Porto Portugal Primeira Liga 1982 32 Wim Kieft Ajax Netherlands Eredivisie 1981 31 Georgi Slavkov Botev Plovdiv Bulgaria Parva Liga 1980 39 Erwin Vandenbergh Lierse Belgium Belgian First Division 1979 34 Kees Kist AZ Netherlands Eredivisie 1978 41 Hans Krankl Rapid Wien Austria Austrian Bundesliga 1977 47 Dudu Georgescu (2) Dinamo București Romania Liga I 1976 39 Sotiris Kaiafas Omonia Nicosia Cyprus Cypriot First Division 1975 33 Dudu Georgescu Dinamo București Romania Liga I 1974 46 Héctor Yazalde Sporting CP Portugal Primeira Liga 1973 40 Eusébio (2) Benfica Portugal Primeira Liga 1972 40 Gerd Müller (2) Bayern Munich Germany Bundesliga 1971 44 Josip Skoblar Marseille France Ligue 1 1970 38 Gerd Müller Bayern Munich Germany Bundesliga 1969 36 Petar Zhekov CSKA Sofia Bulgaria Parva Liga 1968 42 Eusébio Benfica Portugal Primeira Liga I wanted to know how Pele would have fared in the Golden Shoe era, if we considered the Brazilian leagues on the same level as the European ones (which doesn't seem to be totally crazy). With the help of a user on Twitter, we came to the conclusion that Pelé would have had 5 Golden Shoe (1958, 1959, 1961, 1962, 1965). During this pre-1968 period: 1957- Coen Dillen (43) 1958- Pelé (58) 1959- Pelé (44) 1960- Joe Baker (42) 1961- Pelé (47) 1962- Pelé (37) 1963- Oktay Metin (38) 1964- J. Greaves (35) 1965- Pelé (49) 1966- P. Gondet (36) 1967- Ron Davies (37) After that, I wondered if it would be interesting to trace the history of this trophy, from the beginning of soccer history (1870s) to the present day. Indeed, it's quite difficult for me to know which leagues in the world were the best at the time, although I suppose the 1910s, 1920s, it was in South America. I'd love to have @Trachta10 , @peterhrt @elegos7 's knowledge on this, so that we can really trace the world's best goal scorers (only considering the world's best leagues for each period), in order to make a "Worldwide Golden Shoe" ranking. I hope you like the idea! Cheers, IceBlood34.
It would be interesting, but let's remember that in Pelé's time the state championships were played in a league format and the national championships were played in a cup format, So if we were to count Pelé's goals only in the Brazilian championship, he probably wouldn't win any golden boots.In fact, only the champions of each state played in the Brazilian championship, so there were several editions in which Pelé did not even qualify. To be fair, I think we should consider state championships instead of national championships in Brazil until 2002, unless I'm mistaken, which was when the Brasileirão started to be based on straight points.
https://www.rsssf.org/miscellaneous/worldtops.html RSSSF list from first league season 1888-89. Amendments 1889-1919: 1890: Should be Nick Ross (Everton) 24. Original sources confused Ross brothers. 1902: Jimmy Settle (Everton)18 was leader in top division. 1905: Arthur Brown (Sheffield United) 22 was leader in top division. 1906: Remove Maxwell who was not in top division. 1907: Sandy Young not Alf. 1910: Jack Parkinson (Liverpool) 30 was leader in top division. 1915: Should be Bobby Parker (Everton) 35. Ohaco scored 31 in Argentina, the most in a season in South America during this period.
Another amendment to the RSSSF list. Jonny Campbell (Sunderland) 1892, 1893, 1895 was a different player from John Campbell (Aston Villa) 1896.
Yes, you're right, and that's why the numbers I'm announcing are only for Paulista, as it's the league that most closely resembles what might be considered the Brazilian championship. That's why Pele's 5 victories are based solely on the Paulista championship. Thanks for the link and comments! However RSSSF uses the Worlwide Season TopScorer, using no coefficients. No offense to some players but the winner of this title who scored 45 goals in Armenia in 2004, should not be considered more deserving than Thierry Henry this season there... It's like considering that the player with the most trophies in his career is Lee Casciaro with... 57 trophies in Gibraltar, even though the league is semi-professional and Gibraltar was only recognized by UEFA in 2014... It's all a question of coefficients, and that's why with a collective effort we could try to find the Worldwide Golden Shoe, considering only the best championships of each era.
https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/better-leagues-through-football-history.2080739/ @msioux75 can help us! He made a very great job on this thread!
There shouldn't be a need for coefficients before 1920. Unless you replace Schlosser's Hungarian titles. I would keep them. British football was in decline between 1911 and 1914 and was then of course further affected by the war. Schaffer should certainly keep his titles in 1918 and 1919. A lot of money had been poured into MTK by then and they would have held their own in the diluted Scottish league. @msioux75 , as you say, will be able to help going forward.
For information, leading British scorers during seasons when Hungarians had most goals. 1911: Willie Reid (Rangers) 38 1912: Willie Reid (Rangers) 33 1913: James Reid (Airdrie) 31 1914: George Elliott (Middlesbrough) 31 1918: Hugh Ferguson (Motherwell) 38 1919: David McLean (Rangers) 29
I therefore propose the following Worldwide Golden Shoe winners for the period 1889 - 1919: 1889 John Goodall Preston North End (England) 21 1890 Nick Ross Preston (England) 24 1891 Jack Southworth Blackburn Rovers (England) 26 1892 Jonny Campbell Sunderland FC (England) 32 1893 Jonny Campbell (2) Sunderland FC (England) 31 1894 Jack Southworth (2) Everton Liverpool (England) 27 1895 Jonny Campbell (3) Sunderland FC (England) 22 1896 Stephen Bloomer Derby County (England) 20 John M. Campbell Aston Villa Birmingham (England) 20 1897 Stephen Bloomer (2) Derby County (England) 22 1898 Georghe F. Wheldon Aston Villa Birmingham (England) 21 1899 Robert C. Hamilton Glasgow Rangers (Scotland) 25 1900 William Garraty Aston Villa Birmingham (England) 27 1901 Stephen Bloomer (3) Derby County (England) 24 1902 Jimmy Settle Everton (England) 18 1903 Alec Reybould Liverpool FC (England) 31 1904 Robert C. Hamilton (2) Glasgow Rangers (Scotland) 28 1905 Arthur Brown Sheffield United 22 1906 Albert Shepherd Bolton Wanderers FC (England) 26 William Jones Birmingham City FC (England) 26 1907 Sandy Young Everton Liverpool (England) 30 1908 John (Jock) Simpson Falkirk FC (Scotland) 32 1909 Bert Freeman Everton Liverpool (England) 38 1910 Jack Parkinson Liverpool (England) 30 1911 Imre Schlosser Ferencvárosi TC (Hungary) 42 1912 Imre Schlosser (2) Ferencvárosi TC (Hungary) 40 1913 Imre Schlosser (3) Ferencvárosi TC (Hungary) 42 1914 Imre Schlosser (4) Ferencvárosi TC (Hungary) 36 1915 Bobby Parker Everton (England) 35 1916 James McColl Celtic Glasgow (Scotland) 34 1917 Bert Yarnall Airdrieonians FC (Scotland) 39 1918 Alfréd Schaffer MTK Budapest (Hungary) 42 1919 Alfréd Schaffer (2) MTK Budapest (Hungary) 41 Players with more than one win for the Worldwide Golden Shoe: - Imre Schlosser (4) - Jonny Campbell (3) - Stephen Bloomer (3, one shared in 1896) - Jack Southworth (2) - Robert C. Hamilton (2) - Alfred Schaffer (2)
In case it helps you, I'll copy the top scorers in Europe from 1889-1967: https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bota_de_Oro#Máximos_goleadores_antes_de_la_instauración_del_trofeo And I also copied from a link from the rsssf the biggest scorers per year in South America from 1931-2003: https://www.rsssf.org/miscellaneous/samgboot.html In South America it is evident that goals in state championships are not counted because Pelé is not on the list.
Based on the @msioux75 survey, we can classify each period as 1st Tier, 2nd Tier, 3rd Tier or 4Tier. In view of these classifications, I propose to allocate coefficients between the categories, as at present, with a coefficient of 2 for the 1st Tier, 1.5 for the 2nd Tier, 1 for the 3Tier, 0.5 for the 4Tier, and 0,25 for 5Tier. The introduction of the coefficients concerning the league level systems was determined from 1996-1997 onwards, and I assume that the current winners of the European Golden Shoe "logically" correspond to the winner of the Worldwide Golden Shoe, as the best championships in the world have since been in Europe, and more particularly in Western Europe. This would give us for the period 1920-1996: 1920-24: 1st Tier: England. (x2) 2nd Tier: Scotland, Argentina, Uruguay, Czechoslovakia, Hungary (x1,5) 3rd Tier: Austria, La Liga. (x1) 4th Tier: Serie-A, Carioca, Paulista, Wales, Belgium, Sweden, Denmark, Switzerland, Netherlands, Region South (x0,5) 1925-29: 1st Tier: England.

If you think it would be better to merge 1st Tier and 2ndTier within the same coefficient (x2), in order to include the 5 biggest championships in the world, please let me know.
Thank you mate. Here's my update for the last 25 years in european leagues. https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/b...football-history.2080739/page-3#post-41881756
I think it's necessary top leagues, have more weight, but it's also real that before mid 90s, world talent was more widespread and difference between elite and top leagues was small decades ago
Do you think it's better to use these coefficients? 1st Tier (x2) 2nd Tier (x1,5) 3rd Tier (x1) 4Tier (x0.5) Or this system: 1st Tier & 2nd Tier (x2) 3rd Tier (x1,5) 4th Tier (x1) or other?
Then, let's try this coefficients! 1st Tier (x2) 2nd Tier (x1,75) 3rd Tier (x1,5) 4Tier (x1,25) 5Tier (x1)
