Allsvenskan Top Scorers

The 2008 Allsvenskan golden boot went to a Kalmar FF player. Patrik Ingelsten was the main man behind Kalmar's title win scoring 23 goals in all competition during 2008. Although Viktor Elm was just a goal behind him in the Kalmar list Ingelsten remained as the threat after César Santín left in July.

Halmstads Anselmo had a good season on the scoring front with no fewer than 15 league goals. He finished joint 2nd with Kalmar's Viktor Elm and will be a major concern next season for defences if he decides to remain with Halmstads.
Hammarby's USA international Charlie Davies was influencial as ever during the 2008 season with 14 league goals. A marked improvment on 2007 were he got just 3 goals. Finishing in joint 4th was Helsingborgs Henrik Larsson. The legendary Swede had a quiet year but did enough to secure Helsingborgs with a Europa League place.

A special mention has to be reserved to Örebro's Kim Olsen. The big Dane was instrumental in Örebro's 7th place finish their highest since 1998. A hat-trick against IFK Göteborg sent him on his way to 9 league goals during what was a fantastic season for the central sweden side.
