Unless he pulls an Alan Shearer and still is on top form in his 36

But logic dictates that Euro 2012 is probably his last National side competition.

And if that don't work, all he gotta do is pull a Roger Milla, who scored in world cup with 42.

(but I don't want to, leave that record to our own Ronaldo :) )

Well, since Germany still has one game to play, he can still snatch it away from Ronaldo if he scores two goals.

Yes, I'm kidding. I want him to score. Records are meant to be broken. And Klose deserves it for his regularity.

But villa better score too, a top scorer with 5 goals is never good in a world cup.

It's going to be an interesting duel between Villa and Sneider in the final, to see who holds the top goal scorer crown.

And if Sneider manages to do it, it may also be historic. Can anyone confirm when was the last time a midfield player won the top goal scorer crown in a WC?

Quick research and it was on 1962... but then again there were 6 top scorers with only 4 goals each.

Tough job for Sneijder. I remember Rivaldo from 2002 scoring 5 goals too, maybe that's a record for midfielders.
