Tottenham's Heung-Min Son tops Sky Sports Power Rankings

TOP GRAPHIC

Tottenham's Heung-Min Son has topped the Sky Sports Power Rankings - but it was close at the top of the chart this week...

Son scored twice for the second game running during a 4-1 win at Bournemouth on Sunday, with right-back Serge Aurier (No 6, up 78 places) assisting Dele Alli's opener and netting Spurs' fourth in stoppage time.

Manchester City's David Silva almost edged Son to claim the runner-up spot after netting a match-winning double at Stoke, while team-mates Ederson, Kevin De Bruyne and Sergio Aguero retained top-10 standings.

Riyad Mahrez (No 4, up 22 places) assisted Jamie Vardy's opener and netted Leicester's second goal during a 4-1 win at rock-bottom West Brom - having scored a last-minute equaliser against Bournemouth one week earlier.

Manchester United defender Chris Smalling maintained his gradual ascent up the table, climbing three places to No 5 after a 2-1 win over rivals Liverpool in the early Saturday kick-off.

Chelsea midfielder Willian entered the top 10 with an opener against Crystal Palace, while Burnley striker Ashley Barnes scored for the third successive game with a screamer during a 3-0 win at West Ham - a game marred by crowd trouble.
