5=. Neymar (Barcelona & Brazil) – 40
The golden boy of Brazil enjoyed a quiet first season as he become accustomed to his new Spanish surroundings. After becoming the undisputed star of the 2014 World Cup scoring four goals in five games, despite a back injury cutting his competition short, he’s become a key player in Luis Enrique’s Barcelona renaissance.
Despite a penchant to be wasteful in front of goal, Neymar equals Müller and Bale’s efforts with 40 goals and assists so far this season.
