#7 Richarlison (Brazil, Everton)

Goals Scored: 9
The Brazilian has climbed up the charts from 10th at the start of December to 7th at the turn of the year, by virtue of a eventful month. He started the month with the 1-0 loss at the hands of bitter rivals Liverpool, where he failed to find the back of the net. However, Richarlison redeemed himself against Newcastle, scoring the equalizer in a 1-1 draw. He scored again in the next game, a 2-2 draw against Watford.
The games against Tottenham Hotspurs and Manchester City saw him fail to find the back of the net, as Everton slumped to two back to back defeats. But Richarlison's goal drought was over in the very next game, when he came off the bench to score against Burnley. Last weekend, the Brazilian could not add to his tally as Everton lost 1-0 away to Brighton.
Richarlison has now scored 9 goals from 18 games in the Premier League this season, at an average of 0.47 goals per game. At the start of the new year, he is 7th in the race to the Premier League Golden Boot.
