European Sports Magazines have awarded the Golden Shoe based on a points system that allows players in tougher leagues to win even if they score fewer goals than a player in a weaker league. With this modification goals are ranked differently between the leagues.[3]
Leagues in which each goal receives 2 points:
Leagues in which each goal receives 1.5 points:
In all other top league, each goal receives 1 point.
Certain European leagues, such as the Russian Premier League and Tippeligaen, problematically follow calendar years rather than the usual August-May model. As a result, their 2006 calendar season is taken to be compared with the 2006–07 seasons in all other European leagues.
