Europe's Top Five Leagues: Most Goals in a Season by a Player

England's Premier League, Spain's La Liga, Italy's Serie A, France's Ligue 1, and Germany's Bundesliga are the five biggest leagues in Europe. The top five leagues represent the continent's best teams. The top teams have a global fanbase and the best players in European Football must have to play in the biggest and most challenging stages to prove themselves worthy all the time. Those teams produce some talents or bring some talents from other regions of the world and then nurture them to become the Ultimate Superstars of the Footballing World.

Every Goalscorer worth his salt dreams of making it big in the top five European leagues as those leagues are the most famous and challenging in the whole world. If a Striker scores goals on a regular basis in the best leagues then they must be special to be out there.

European Golden Shoe:

The European Golden Shoe (Mostly referred to as the European Golden Boot) is an award that is given to the player who finishes the season as the leading league scorer across all of Europe's top divisions. It was first introduced for the 1967-68 season by French football magazine L'Equipe - who called the award the Soulier d'Or, which translates to 'Golden Shoe'. Now it is presented on an annual basis.

Since ESM took over the running of the Golden Shoe award in 1996-97, a points system based on league strength has been utilized in order to find the top scorer. Goals scored in the continent's top five leagues are multiplied by a factor of two, those scored in the leagues 6 to 21 are multiplied by a factor of 1.5, and the remaining leagues by a factor of one. In short, the best among the best who are the top scorers of their respective leagues fight for the European Golden Boot.

Premier League: History

The Football League First Division was the top-tier football league in England from 1888. But in the post-1970s and early 1980s, the league started to reach a low point with incidents like the 1985 Heysel Stadium disaster, which banned them from UEFA Competitions for five years. 

But after England reached the 1990 FIFA World Cup semi-finals, the downward trend started to reverse. The stadium started to get filled, and the Taylor Report on stadium safety standards also helped clubs to create better standard stadiums. 

After a dispute over TV rights and maximising the club revenue, the big five clubs, Manchester United, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Everton, and Arsenal, opted to come out of the Football League First Division and create another league. 

At the close of the 1990-91 season, the FA Premier League was formed, and from 1992-93 the Premier League era started with 22 teams. Manchester United were the first Premier League champions and went on to win seven of the first nine trophies.

Who has won the most Premier League titles?

Till now, 51 teams have played in the Premier League since the tournament was rebranded in 1992. 7 teams have successfully won the Premier League title.

Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester City, Liverpool, and Tottenham are considered the 'Big Six' in the Premier League. Unfortunately, Tottenham haven't lifted any major title in their history, but still, they go toe to toe with every club and take part in the title race.

Manchester United, with 13 Premier League titles since 1992, are the most successful club in the Premier League era.

Most Premier League titles as a player (Top Five)

1. Ryan Giggs (Manchester United) | 13 titles

It's a testament to Manchester United's dominance throughout the Premier League's history that every player on this top-five list was one of Sir Alex Ferguson's former stars. Ryan Giggs comes at the top of this list with a record 13 league titles.

The Manchester United legend spent 25 years at the club and made 963 appearances. He was never a star or anything. Giggs was like someone who always gave his everything for the badge. He broke numerous records at Old Trafford, and the fact that he's lifted the Premier League trophy more than anyone else, is what sets him apart from the rest.

2. Paul Scholes (Manchester United) | 11 titles

One of the greatest central midfielders in Premier League and European football history, Paul Scholes tasted so much success at Manchester United. The Englishman spent his entire career at Old Trafford and won a remarkable 11 Premier League titles under Sir Alex Ferguson.

He was a star player and often considered the best midfielder to ever play for Manchester United and in the Premier League. The debate over whether Scholes was better than Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard is still going on to date, but if anyone judges by the numbers, then Scholes is miles ahead.

3. Gary Neville (Manchester United) | 8 titles

Gary Neville spent his entire career as a first-team figure at Old Trafford and won plenty of silverware during that time.

The former England right-back saw the most success domestically, though, winning the Premier League eight times and he was also the skipper on most occasions. Neville is often considered one of the most underrated players to ever play for Manchester United and England.

4. Denis Irwin (Manchester United) | 7 titles

Denis Irwin is another Manchester United great who won numerous silverware, including 7 Premier League titles at the club. Irwin is the joint-most successful Irish footballer in history, a record he shares with fellow Manchester United stalwart Roy Keane, having won 19 trophies in his career.

The left-back appeared in 529 games for the Red Devils and also scored 33 goals. Irwin brought the curtain down on a glittering 12 years against Charlton Athletic at Old Trafford in May 2002. He remains United’s second-most-decorated player, with 13 winners’ medals.

5. Roy Keane (Manchester United) | 7 titles

Interestingly, almost all of Roy Keane and Denis Irwin's success in the league came together, winning six of their seven titles alongside one another.

Sir Alex Ferguson labelled him the best he ever worked with, which speaks volumes. It is enough to consider Roy Keane as one of the greats of Manchester United. The way he led the team from the front, on and off the pitch, and the fact that more than 70k United and Celtic fans paid their tributes to him at his testimonial before he retired in June 2006, says everything.

He played 480 games for the Red Devils in his 12-year stay and won everything, including 7 Premier League titles.
