1. Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid)
Shots inside penalty area: 114
League goals: 27
Cristiano Ronaldo takes more shots than anyone else in Europe’s top five leagues – both inside and outside the penalty area, with much of Real Madrid’s strategy over the last few years simply to give their Portuguese superstar the ball in the hope he will perform his magic.
With Gareth Bale on the opposite flank, Carlo Ancelotti feels his team is a more balanced Real Madrid to previous seasons – though naturally given his astonishing goalscoring record, Ronaldo is still keen to try his luck at every opportunity.
