Goals Scored: 10

The Englishman's goalscoring form has taken a hit of late, but Sterling has managed to stay put in the 6th position. After scoring just one goal in December, he was expected to push on at the turn of the year and close the gap from the top.

However, even though he has contributed as a part of the team, Sterling has been poor in front of goal. He started the year by setting up Sane to score the winner against Liverpool, a game where he failed to score himself. In the following game against Wolves, he assisted Jesus to score the opening goal. City won the game 3-0, but Sterling failed to score again.

The Englishman finally found the back of the net in the game against Huddersfield, scoring his 10th goal of the season. However, he failed to score last weekend, as City were defeated by a resolute Newcastle side.

Sterling is averaging a goal every 175 minutes played so far and has scored 10 goals from 21 games in the Premier League. He has registered 29 shots so far, 22 of which have been on target.
