#3 Robert Lewandowski
Poland international striker Robert Lewandowski was furious that his Bayern Munich side did not do more for him last season to finish above Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in the Bundesliga scoring charts. Nevertheless, he netted 30 times for the Bavarian giants, who will, no doubt, be German champions come the end of the season.
Such dominance for his club means that it is the 28-year-old centre forward who is a more sure fire bet of being the Bundesliga’s greatest challenger for European Golden Shoe honours.
He has scored 30 goals in each of the last two seasons and at least 20 in five of the last six.
Lewandowski, though, is handicapped by the fact that the German league only consists of 34 rounds, meaning he has to accrue more goals than anyone else in four fewer matches – probably enough to count decisively against him in such a competitive race.
