Who is red-hot in the Premier League right now? Sky Sports ranks every player over the last five matchdays…
Chelsea full-back Reece James is still the league’s most in-form player after claiming a fortunate assist for N’Golo Kante’s stunning long-range goal in a 3-0 win over Leicester – extending his tally to eight goal involvements from just seven league starts.
Trent Alexander-Arnold charged into runner-up spot with two customary assists in the 4-0 demolition over Arsenal – leapfrogging team-mate Mohamed Salah (No 3), who scored his 11th goal of the season against the Gunners.
Joao Cancelo (No 4) produced another dazzling display as Manchester City humbled Everton in a 3-0 victory, hitting a breathtaking pass with the outside of his boot from range for Raheem Sterling to break the deadlock.
Team-mates Bernardo Silva (No 6) and Rodri (No 9) also rank among the elite performers, with the former netting his fourth goal of the season and the latter scoring his second of the campaign with a rocket from distance.
