Manchester City's Sergio Aguero has topped the Sky Sports Power Rankings after scoring five goals in three games.

The Argentine scored a hat-trick in City's 3-0 win over Chelsea, netted against Newcastle and converted a penalty in City's 4-0 win over Stoke. 

Matchdays 34 and 35 were combined for the latest Power Rankings, which saw league leaders Leicester maintain their seven-point advantage over Tottenham with three games remaining.

Arsenal's Alexis Sanchez scored in the Gunners' 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace and hit a double against West Brom to rise five places to No 2.

Tottenham's Harry Kane netted twice against Stoke to keep his No 3 spot, while team-mate Dele Alli (No 6, up 15 places) also scored twice against the Potters.

Andy Carroll's consistent form since his hat-trick heroics for West Ham against Arsenal saw him enter the top 10 for the first time this season at No 4 after scoring against Leicester and Watford.

Leicester's Jamie Vardy dropped out of the top 10 this week and slipped to No 3 in the season rankings behind Kane (No 2) and team-mate Riyad Mahrez (No 1). 

Vardy received a second yellow card for simulation against West Ham and missed the Foxes' 4-0 win against Swansea on Super Sunday through suspension - in which Vardy's replacement, Leonardo Ulloa (No 10, up 59 places), scored twice.

The Power Rankings methodology reflects a player's performance over the previous five weeks, with each preceding week worth fewer points. This means the Power Rankings reflect the in-form players of the moment.

The Sky Sports Power Rankings will be updated each week during the season, so be sure to keep an eye on the big movers...
