1) RIYAD MAHREZ (LEICESTER) – 7.81

A remarkable season for Mahrez and his Leicester side got even better this weekend as the Algerian scored a hat-trick in the Foxes’ 3-0 win over Swansea.

Mahrez’s heroics at the Liberty Stadium on Saturday saw Leicester shoot to the top of the Premier League.

At this rate, there is no reason why Mahrez and his teammates shouldn’t be dreaming big.

2) AARON RAMSEY (ARSENAL) – 7.75

The Welshman scored one and made one in Arsenal’s 3-1 win over Sunderland on Saturday.

With Manchester City slipping up at Stoke, it meant Arsenal moved into second place in the Premier League table, two points behind Leicester.

It was a welcome return to form for Ramsey who has been struggling for form and fitness this season.

3) MARKO ARNAUTOVIC (STOKE CITY) – 7.21 

Austrain international Arnautovic scored both goals in Stoke’s surprise 2-0 win over Man City, in a game that the hosts dominated in fine fashion.

Arnautovic was clinical early on but could have easily had a hat-trick after passing up a couple of golden opportunities in both halfs after his brace.

One player who didn’t enjoy Arnautovic’s performance was Bacary Sagna, the City right-back all at sea when confronted with his opposite number.

4) ROMELU LUKAKU (EVERTON) – 7.70

The big Belgian just cannot stop scoring at the minute.

Lukakau made it six goals in as many games with his 50th Everton goal in his 100th appearance for the club to salvage a late point for his side against Crystal Palace.

In this kind of form, Lukaku is unstoppable.

5) XHERDAN SHAQIRI (STOKE CITY) – 7.70

The architect to City’s downfall, Shaqiri was imperious at the Britannia Stadium in their convincing win over the start of the weekend Premier League leaders.

Shaqiri provided both Arnautovic with both goals in a man of the match performance.

He could have even had a goal himself had he not completely missed the ball from five yards out in front of an open goal.
