You won't believe which European team has the best attack (alongside Barca)
It was also the consecration of AS Roma’s attack, one which put four past Palermo and is now the best in the league, with 23 goals scored.
Laughed off as a bidone last season, Edin Dzeko is back with a vengeance, equalling his 2016-2017 tally of four league goals and confirming that he can do a job at the Olimpico.
Even better, the Giallorossi’s attack can now be compared to some of the best in Europe: fourth among the continent’s elite leagues, it is only behind Real Madrid’s (24), Barcelona (29)... and Monaco, who have the same amount as the Blaugrana.
What a surprise the Principality’s paladins have been: having played a game more (10) than its La Liga rivals, it can hardly count on the MSN trio, preferring to share out the glory and becoming a goal co-operative.
Despite benefitting from Radamel Falcao’s return, ASM boast midfielder Fabinho (4 goals) as their top goalscorer alongside Thomas Lemar and ahead of Valere Germain (3), and five more players (including Falcao himself and Kamil Glik, a steal at €15 million) on two.
Enough to take Monaco to second place, this attack has also done well in Europe, putting two past Tottenham at Wembley. Can it now take ASM to their first title since 2000?
