    Who do you think will win the golden Boot?

    I've taken the top 15 choices straight from Paddy Power but am acutely aware it could easily be a player outside of the 'top 15'.

    As with the other thread the maximum options are set at 15 hence this limited figure....

    So who are YOU going to pick?

    Personally.... I think Van Persie....

    Think the stage is set for RVP.

    he's literally on the edge of his peak IMHO so I think the time is just right for him.

    I'm going for his partner in crime...Huntelaar. RVP to get most of his assists and bag a couple himself. <ok>

    Wonder if Klose will score for fun again?

    Jelavic could be a good outside bet. He's in some form at the minute.

    The Germans will no doubt do well and Klose will be involved, but just got a feeling Holland and RVP will come out on top.

    RVP has to be favourite, but even though he misses the two games, I'm going to put a flutter on Rooney, you never know he might surprise us all.

    Would normally have said Klose; Germany always tend to smash someone in the group stages and he grabs a couple which tide him over for the rest of the tournament, but in the group that they have (Portugal, Holland, Denmark) I can't see any beatings being handed out. Although he's going to get game time (Germany have only taken 3 strikers) I don't think he'll score more than 2.

    Honestly can't pick a clear top scorer. The teams you would expect to dominate weaker teams and score shedloads are in very tough groups, so no goalfests I think. Also the top scorer is usually someone obscure.

    Could be time for Torres to take centre stage I think. His form started to improve towards the end of the season and surrounded by the best players in the world I think he could get a fair few.

    That's what my head says, heart says Robbie Keane. <ok>

    I said Benzema, The lads in form at the minute and he's surrounded by creativity. I'm not convinced RVP will be playing as an out and out striker, I kind of expect him to be pushed out left with Robben on the right to allow Huntelaar to play in the center, similar to what we did to Ba.
