Second top striker behind Emilio Butragueño.
The difference? Emilio played in Real Madrid with two strikers and attacking style, and Aldo in Real Sociedad. At the time what was fashionable in here was a defensive 4-5-1. Sometimes you could even see a sweeper, which you can't see any more.
So being second on the scoring table just shows he was a straight away success.
