abstract:The European Golden Shoe, formerly known as the European Golden Boot, is an association football award presented each season to the leading goalscorer in league matches from the top division of every European national league. From its inception in the 1967–68 season the award, originally called Soulier d'Or, which translates from French as Golden Shoe or Boot, was given by L'Équipe magazine to the top goalscorer in all European leagues that season.
I'm also expecting a decent cup run this season (for no other reason than the fact we're overdue one) and, if you're looking for a daft bet, what about Well skipper and BBC pundit Stephen Craigan to win the EuropeanGoldenShoe thanks purely to own-goals?
