Cementing the legend status in Calcio history

By: Kamran | April 23rd, 2009

Gabriel Batistuta, Roberto Baggio, Gunner Nordahl, ring any bells? Yes, these are some of the most prolific strikers in history of Serie A. And then there is this guy, who, despite playing as a trequartista for most of his career, has broken into the list of those legends. Welcome to Francesco Totti:

Serie A Top 10 Scorers (April 19, 2009)

Another interesting phenomenon to spot in that list is that apart from Capitano’s next target — Boniperti — none of the top 10 strikers have dedicated their careers to any particular club. In fact, #5 even went as far as having a pseudo-motto of changing clubs every three seasons of his 18 in the league.

Sometimes, statistics do speak.

P.S.: To all the Pinturrichio fans: With utmost respect, goals scored in Serie B just don’t compare with the ones scored in top-flight, so it’s not even an argument.
