David Villa(2005-Present,94 caps ,54 goals


When you take into consideration the quality of strikers that have preceded Villa in a Spain shirt, it shows just how clinical the 32-year-old is because as it stands, no player has scored more goals for La Roja than him.
It's not just the number of goals that he has scored, but how important they have been. He contributed four as Spain won Euro 2008 and then went one better with five at the 2010 World Cup. Sadly, though, a broken leg ruled him out of adding to his major tournament tally at Euro 2012.
To add to his international medals, Villa has won almost everything that club football has to offer. During the early part of his career the frontman helped Real Zaragoza and Valencia to win the Copa del Rey in 2004 and 2008 respectively, before he went on to be a key component of Pep Guardiola's Barcelona team that swept aside all that stood before them. He was deemed surplus to requirements at the Camp Nou last summer, but has proved the doubters wrong by helping an unfancied Atletico Madrid to win La Liga and reach the final of the Champions League.
