There are a few good strikers going to the world cup this year that stand a chance of ending the tournement as top goal scorer.
Ronaldo and Adriano will be strong contenders especially as they have quite an easy group and Brazil should go all the way to the final.
Owen (or Rooney if fit) of England or Ibrahimovich of sweden have a good chance as well, this is mainly because they have Trinidad and Tobago in their group which both teams should beat by a few goals (world cup 90 so Solenko of Russia as top scorer thanks to getting 5 goals in one group game). Ibrahimovich is a very good shout for a bet at 33/1.
Klose, Podolski or Kuranyi may stand a chance as well, Germany's group is one of the easiest and they should win all three games.
Even though in a hard group, Milan Baros of Czech Rep would be a good shout, Baros ended euro 2004 as top goalscorer and could repeat that feat at the world cup.
