#5. Antoine Griezmann – 16 goals
Los Rojiblanco’s superstar-in-chief epitomizes the season that Atleti have been having. Although having started the campaign like an old scooter that had been forgotten and stored away in your garage, they’ve powered through the final stretch with some rather impressive performances in the calendar year 2017 (no, no, don’t judge them by their Champions League performances) and the Frenchman has been in hot goal scoring form.
His assists column also shows just how valuable an all-around player he is, and there is no denying that if he is arguably the most likely candidate to break the Messi-Ronaldo hegemony on the “Best Player of the Year Awards”.

It’s his poor start that looks likely to cost him a podium finish (as his woeful mins per goal ratio indicates) but he’ll be looking to make sure Atleti seal third place in the coming weeks.
