Harry Kane and Jamie Vardy top the Sky Sports Power Rankings

Power Rankings: Week 12 cover

Tottenham's Harry Kane has topped the Sky Sports Power Rankings for the first time.

Kane scored twice - his sixth and seventh goal in four Premier League games - during Spurs' 4-1 win against West Ham at White Hart Lane on Super Sunday.

Meanwhile, Leicester's Jamie Vardy - who equalled the Premier League record by scoring in his 10th consecutive game in the Foxes' 3-0 victory over Newcastle - moved up one place to second in the Power Rankings.

Team-mate Riyad Mahrez maintained his consistent presence among the league's top performers at No 5, while midfielder N'Golo Kante also represented the Foxes at No 9.

Liverpool's Philippe Coutinho fired 13 places up the charts to No 3 after the Brazilian scored and dismantled Manchester City during the Reds' 4-1 victory at the Ethiad on Saturday.
