Manchester United’s Jesse Lingard tops ’ Power Rankings

Show/hide article…

Manchester United’s Jesse Lingard has topped the Sky Sports Power Rankings after a scintillating run of form during the festive schedule.

Lingard scored with the match-winner at West Brom in mid-December, assisted Juan Mata at Leicester, netted twice to salvage a point against Burnley on Boxing Day and scored his seventh this term at Everton on New Year’s Day.

Chelsea wing-back Marcos Alonso has also hit form in front of goal, scoring in three of his last five games - including a decisive free-kick against Southampton.

Manchester City’s top scorer Raheem Sterling scored five and claimed one assist from four starts, while City stopper Ederson kept three clean sheets during the festive schedule.

West Ham’s Marko Arnautovic soared up the chart with four goals and one assist since mid-December, but missed the 1-1 draw at Tottenham through illness.

Meanwhile, Dele Alli hit form with two goals and four assists during the festive schedule, while, Riyad Mahrez maintained his purple patch with two goals and three assists from the four games.

Crystal Palace midfielder Luka Milivojevic netted his fourth goal of the season with a late winner at Southampton, while Roberto Firmino represented Liverpool among the top 10.

Philippe Coutinho ended his Liverpool career at No 10 in the chart, having joined Barcelona for £146m on Monday.

The Power Rankings methodology reflects a player’s performance over the last five matchdays by awarding points to players for 32 different stats.

Below, we present this week’s Power Rankings, your club’s top points scorer and the accumulative season rankings.

The Sky Sports Power Rankings will be updated every week during the season, so be sure to keep an eye on the big movers…
