4) Jamie Vardy & Riyad Mahrez (Leicester City): 8 goals
Fairy tales and miracles do not come any better than Leicester City’s campaign this season. After barely escaping relegation last season, they now top the table with a five-point lead over the Spurs with seven games to go.
While Claudio Ranieri has rightly received a lot of praise, much of their success comes down to the tireless and prolific Jamie Vardy and the previously unknown Algerian winger Riyad Mahrez. Vardy has scored 19 goals this season and also broke a record for most consecutive games scored in the EPL.
On the other hand, Mahrez looks all set to take home the PFA Player of the Year award for his 16 goals and 11 assists so far. But judging by their current position, they will be more than happy with just a winners’ medal.
