5) Loic Remy (Chelsea)

153 minutes per goal – just ahead is Chelsea striker Loic Remy, who has shown a natural instinct for poaching goals.

4) Harry Kane (Tottenham)

141 minutes per goal – a superb scorer, Harry Kane burst onto the scene with some brilliant form in front of goal last season.

3) Daniel Sturridge (Liverpool)

140 minutes per goal – despite his luck with injuries, Liverpool’s Daniel Sturridge is as good a finisher as they come, and has a great record to show for it.

2) Diego Costa (Chelsea)

113 minutes per goal – instantly one of the best centre-forwards in the country upon joining Chelsea last summer, it’s little surprise to see Diego Costa so high on this list.

1) Sergio Aguero (Manchester City)

110 minutes per goal – an amazing record, Sergio Aguero has consistently been the best striker in the league since he moved to Manchester City in 2011.
