Add to that he has scored 7 own goals, more against Liverpool than for them! Carragher scoring an own goal against Liverpool and celebrating!
At Dynamo Kiev and Milan, Shevchenko scored 187 goals in 325 games, a ratio of 0.57. Jimmy Greaves (the leading scorer in top flight English football according to wiki) in 585 games (including internationals) scored 435 goals. Which is a ratio of 0.75. Admittedly in lower division football, Palace's record scorer Peter Simpson scored 165 goals in 195 games over 4 years. That's a ratio of 0.85, and it included 19 hat-tricks.
oh and a legend who never gets mentioned (although he may be before some of your time). Hugo Sanchez 488 goals in 694 games!!0.70 ratio
A couple more. Mario Kempes - 538 matches ~~ 291 goals .54 goals per match Could anyone find the total number of career goals Roy Makaay got ?
Cheers. His goals to game ratio in the Bundesliga and at Deportivo was better than his goal to game ratio in the Dutch League.
Yes some players seem to suit specific leagues, i knew his ratio was good but this surprised me. Many foreign strikers usually have only a few good seasons. He seems consistent and is above alot of good strikers there.
