5 dark horses for the Premier League Golden Boot

Liverpool v Burnley - Premier League
Mohammed Salah has started on fire for Liverpool!

#4. Raheem Sterling

Manchester City v A.F.C. Bournemouth - Premier League
*

The 22-year-old English international has found the back of the net five times in as many appearances for City this season. Pep Guardiola’s side has been unstoppable in the last couple of games, becoming the first side in the Premier League era to hit five goals past three teams in consecutive games.

Sterling has found himself playing a vital part in the process, improving his work-rate and running off-the-ball and converting more chances than he’s done all career long .He has taken his time to adapt to Manchester City and his start to this season has taken everybody by surprise. England will be hoping for more of the same from the former Liverpool player throughout the course of the season leading into the WC in Russia next year.

A candidate for the golden boot this season given his superb start, Sterling will only continue to get better this term as City and Guardiola are aiming to be crowned Premier League champions.
