Everton striker Romelu Lukaku has topped the Sky Sports Power Rankings this week.

The 23-year-old scored four goals during the Toffees' 6-3 victory over Bournemouth at Goodison Park on Saturday to become the Premier League's top goalscorer on 16 goals .

Team-mate Ross Barkley (No 2, up 11 places) assisted Lukaku's fourth and sealed victory with an injury-time goal after rounding Cherries 'keeper Artur Boruc and celebrating before slotting the ball into an empty net.

Swansea's talisman Gylfi Sigurdsson (No 3, down one place) struck a long-range equaliser against Manchester City before the Citizens' Gabriel Jesus (No 6, up 71 places) netted his second of the game to claim three points.

Chelsea defeated Arsenal 3-1 at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, with wing-back Marcos Alonso (No 4, up five places) scoring his fourth of the season and Eden Hazard continued his ascent back up the chart with a sublime solo goal.
