#1. Neymar Jr.
No one has scored more goals than Leo Messi in 2017, so how in the hell can anyone but the great Argentine be no.1?
Because of the form Neymar Jr. is in at the moment.
The Brazilian has 8 goals in 8 at the moment but has also chipped in with a whopping 7 assists and - this is the kicker - has created a quite astounding 30 (THIRTY) chances in Ligue 1... in just 6 games!
He has played with a freedom and joy that could bring a smile to the hearts of the hardest men on the planet - nimble dancing feet, inspired vision, and deadly shooting all combining to make him the hottest ticket in world football at the moment.
His form with Brazil just accentuates this point - his performances have been pivotal to Brazil being the first, and as yet only, South American nation to qualify for the World Cup and he looks like to be the man of the tournament on the biggest stage of them all!
