Real Madrid is turning Europe into a 'Los Blancos' empire. The offensive power of Carlo Ancelotti's men has conquered the continent. No other team in Europe has notched up as many goals as Real Madrid, counting both national and continental competitions. There are none that even come close to the 62 goals scored by 'BBC' (Bale, Benzema, Cristiano) and company, in the Spanish League (44) and Champions League (18).
'Los Blancos' have scored nine goals more than their closest contender in this race, 'Cholo's' amazing Atlético, which has collected 53 goals in the two competitions. The top three is completed by another Spanish side, Barça, with 52.
After the 'Azulgranas' comes Pellegrini's Manchester City, the top scorer in the Premiership, with (37). Despite the feeling that the English tournament is more spectacular and eye-catching, that quality does not translate into goals.
Arsenal, one of the sensations of the season, has only managed 35 goals, 27 in its home championship, eight in the Champions League. It falls far short of Real Madrid - even though Real has played two games less -, as does the Chelsea side under former Madrid coach José Mourinho, having scored the same number of goals as Arsenal in 18 games, to Madrid's 20.
Fourth in line behind the Spaniards is Paris Saint Germain. That is not surprising, given the quality of its impressive line-up of forwards featuring Ibrahimovic, Cavani, Lavezzi, Pastore and Menez.
Madrid scores an average of 3.1 goals per game. No-one else in Europe gets to three. Atlético is on 2.65, City 2.88, with Arsenal and Chelsea on 1.94.
