In modern football, the division of responsibilities between the front, middle and back is becoming more and more blurred. Forwards need to be more involved in defense, defenders are also more involved in offense, and the burden of goals on the midfield has also increased a lot. Recently, the German transfer market network has counted the number of goals scored by midfielders in the 21st century, and many familiar names are on the list.
The top two are the two England midfielders who have been bright. Chelsea star Lampard scored 261 goals in 843 games and ranked first, while Liverpool star Gerrard scored 794 games. Scored 206 goals in the game and ranked second. The gap between the two is not small, but considering that Lampard is the fifth scorer in the history of the Premier League and the most scoring goal in the history of the Premier League, this huge lead is not surprising.
The third or fourth place is two Bundesliga stars. The former Dutch genius Van der Vaart scored 194 goals in 623 games and ranked third, while the current Dortmund captain Royce scored in 451 games. Ranked fourth with 187 goals. Both are unfortunate geniuses. If Van der Vaart was not dragged to the end of the offside line in the 2010 World Cup, he might not have let Iniesta score a lore. And Royce is even more regrettable. He would get injured every time he was in a big game, and he failed to follow Germany to the World Cup.
The two ranked fifth and sixth also have a lot of intersections. Ronaldinho scored 169 goals in 458 games, and the sixth-place Barack scored 169 goals in 458 games. He also scored 169 goals, but he used 565 games. The two played against each other in the 2002 World Cup final. Ronaldinho’s Brazil defeated Ballack’s German team 2-0 to win the championship, and Ballack became the fourth Asian king of the season (Bundesliga, Germany). Cup, Champions League, World Cup).
The ninth player is the current Super League player.The Slovak international Hamsik, currently playing for the Chinese Super League Dalian Club, scored 147 goals in 645 games. The Naples flag once became the top scorer in the history of Naples, only to be his teammate last year. Mertens came in second place. After coming to the Super League, his performance is far worse than scoring 5 goals in 45 games in Serie A. He was once questioned about his lack of active running. He may leave the Super League this season.
As the most demanding position on the court, it is not easy for midfielders to contribute a stable number of goals. This is why the players on the list are world-class.
