Mohamed Salah has climbed two spots to #7 on this list after a goal-laden April.

Salah netted four times in the Premier League to take his tally to 22. He is now the leading goalscorer in the league, overtaking Manchester City's Sergio Aguero, and well on course to winning his second consecutive Golden Boot award.

Salah has proved that he's no one season wonder, stepping up at important moments for the Reds. While he has certainly not been as consistent as last season, he has remained one of Liverpool's best players.

Salah scored in victories against Southampton, Chelsea and Huddersfield in the league, extending the Reds' win streak and helping them maintain their title challenge.

He also netted against Porto in the second leg of their Champions League quarterfinal tie. However, he is unlikely to move any further up this list considering the injury he picked up against Newcastle which could rule him out for the rest of the season.
