#3 Michail Antonio
The Premier League's Player of the Month in August, Michail Antonio, has been in fine form this year. He has been key to the Hammers, who have been splendid under manager David Moyes.
Antonio's commitment and hunger at both sides of the pitch have earned him admiration. He has 14 goals and ten assists in the Premier League in 2021. Half of those goal contributions have come this season.
After a flying start to the campaign, Antonio was awarded the Premier League Player of the Month award. The Hammers are currently fifth in the Premier League, and face tough competition for a Champions League spot.
#2 Harry Kane
Few strikers in the Premier League can match Harry Kane's precision and deadly finishing ability. The Tottenham forward may not be the quickest, but he is a goal-machine.
Kane ended last season with 23 goals and 14 assists, which were the leading numbers in both categories in the league. The 28-year-old has consistently scored at the highest level, despite fitness and injury concerns.
Kane has 18 goals and six assists in the Premier League in 2021. He has scored just four league goals this season, which is far below his usual standards. Nevertheless, Spurs fans will hope that manager Antonio Conte can get their forward back in goalscoring form.
#1 Mohamed Salah (2020 Premier League winner)
Mohamed Salah has blazed through the Premier League this season, and is in phenomenal form. The Egyptian has had an outstanding campaign so far, and has been Liverpool's most influential player by a mile.
One of the best in Europe at the moment, Salah has been making immense contributions up front. He has 24 goals and 11 assists in the Premier League in 2021.
With 15 goals this season, he seems on track to win his third Premier League Golden Boot award. Mohamed Salah also leads the assists chart this season, with nine. Liverpool are currently third in the Premier League after 19 games, and Salah certainly deserves most of the credit for that.
