Despite slipping a spot in this list Raheem Sterling has remained on great form
Despite his run of good form continuing, Manchester City’sRaheem Sterling has slipped one spot this month, moving from 5th position to 6th. Sterling’s form has hardly suffered, though – despite failing to score in his last 2 league games, he did score 2 goals in City’s 6-0 rout of Chelsea in early February, putting in a Man of the Match-level performance.

Sterling has now scored 12 goals and made 9 assists this season, meaning he averages involvement with a goal every 99 minutes he plays.
Sterling could probably move up this list by taking more shots on goal – he’s taken 52 this season, the least of any attacking player on this list, but his conversion rate of 23% is actually higher than that of Kane, Aguero or Salah!
With 54 key passes to his name, more shots and goals would arguably make him the perfect attacking force in Pep Guardiola’s side – and would probably help his team win the league title, too.
