@FootynewsSix matchdays into LaLiga and the Pichichi race is already stacked. Raphinha sits on 9 goals, with Lamine Yamal and Kylian Mbappé both on 7. You have to go back to 2014/15 to find a similar spread at the top: Cristiano Ronaldo on 10, Neymar on 6, Lionel Messi on 5. But what Ronaldo did that season was on another level. He hit 10 goals in just five matches, then scored a hat-trick against Athletic in his next league appearance to reach 13 after six games. That version of him didn't look like a normal footballer. It was like watching someone play career mode with the difficulty settings completely broken.
