Aguero's hattrick has placed him firmly in contention for the Golden boot

Mohammed Salah, Pierre Emerick Aubameyang, Harry Kane, Eden Hazard, Raheem Sterling, and Sergio Aguero have all been top or joint top scorers at one point or another this season.

Sergio Aguero has suddenly become the favourite for the much coveted individual award after his hattricks against rivals, Arsenal and Chelsea.

However, Aubameyang, Kane, Hazard and Sterling are only a few goals behind and cannot be written off in the race for the Golden Boot.

Kane limped off in Tottenham's loss to Manchester United at Wembley and has been unable to add to his tally since then.

However, Salah and Aubameyang have not pulled very far ahead of the Spurs man in line to make his comeback soon.

With Kane returning ahead of schedule, Aubameyang, Aguero and Salah all in red hot form, we are in for one of the most keenly contested Golden Boot races in recent memory.
