#7 MARCUS RASHFORD, MANCHESTER UNITED
Marcus Rashford's off-the-field activities during the lockdown might have earned him plaudits from across the world, but he has been on fire in his day job as well.
The England international started the season as the man expected to burden the responsibility of carrying Manchester United's attack. With the departure of Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez, it was clear that Solksjaer was relying on Martial and Rashford to provide the goals.
Both of them have done a good job. In Rashford's case, Solskjaer has predominantly used him as a left-winger. Due to his sheer pace and trickery with the ball, Rashford has caused a myriad of problems for opposition defenders.
This season, the 22-year old has played 37 games in all competitions for the club. He has scored 21 goals and provided six assists. He leads the United squad for shots per game, as well as dribbles per game.
#6 PIERRE-EMERICK AUBAMEYANG, ARSENAL
Arguably Arsenal's best player for the last couple of seasons, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has taken over the role of talisman for the club.
The Gabon international is also the Arsenal captain, and rightly so. Capable of playing as a left-winger as well as a striker, Aubameyang has led from the front for the Gunners.
With just a year left in his contract, Arsenal should try all they can to keep the 31-year old. His pace and finishing have often made the difference between winning and losing for the club.
This season, the former Borussia Dortmund man has made 39 appearances in all competitions for the club. He has scored 23 goals and provided two assists.
#5 RAHEEM STERLING, MANCHESTER CITY
During his first season with Manchester City, it looked like Raheem Sterling had made a mistake by joining the club. However, Pep Guardiola's arrival seemingly changed the course of his career.
Sterling joined Manchester City from Liverpool in a brave move for a fee of £44 million in 2015. The winger was seen as one of the best young talents in Europe by that point, and the controversial move was met with interest.
The 25-year old struggled under then-manager Manuel Pellegrini but found his footing under Guardiola. Since then there has been no turning back. Pacy and creative with good dribbling ability, Sterling is one of the first names on the teamsheet for the Spaniard.
This season the England international has 45 appearances in all competitions, scoring 27 goals and providing three assists.
#4 HARRY KANE, TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR
Many critics of the game believe that Harry Kane has started to decline. Multiple injuries and subsequent quick recoveries have been cited as a reason for the said decline.
However, he still continues to score a good level. The 26-year old was regarded by many as the best striker in the world a couple of years ago. Jose Mourinho believes that he still is.
The England international has had some injury troubles this season as well, but has shaken it off to lead the line for Spurs. This season, he has played 31 games in all competitions, scoring 19 goals and providing two assists.
