3. Sergio Aguero (Manchester City)
Games played: 15 (2)
Goals: 15
Assists: 5
Goals + assists: 20
No other striker in European football has a better goal/minute ratio than City’s Argentine, whose season would have no doubt been more impressive had injuries not forced him out for lengthy periods.
Before Christmas, his partnership up top with Spanish powerhouse Alvaro Negredo was especially impressive, and when Aguero regains fitness, the pair will hope to fire the Sky Blues to Premier League title success this term.
