Erwin Vandenbergh

Erwin Vandenbergh is a name that deserves far more reverence than it gets outside Belgium. Born in Ramsel, he finished as top scorer of the Belgian First Division six separate times between 1979 and 1991, a record that still stands, and he did it across three different clubs in Lierse, Anderlecht and Gent. That is not luck or one hot season; that is sustained, ruthless finishing over more than a decade. I find that kind of consistency almost unreal. He later moved into coaching, but for me his goal-scoring legacy alone places him among the genuine legends of Belgian football.
