Premier League Power Rankings: Bournemouth's Josh King top

King top, ahead of Southampton's James Ward-Prowse and Wolves duo Raul Jimenez and Diogo Jota

Last Updated: 01/02/19 6:49am

Bournemouth forward Josh King has ousted Paul Pogba atop the Power Rankings.

The Norway international scored twice and produced a deft lobbed pass to tee up David Brooks (No 30) during a 4-0 win against Chelsea on Sunday - the Blues' heaviest home defeat in 23 years.

Southampton midfielder James Ward-Prowse (No 2) maintained a rich vein of form, netting his third goal in as many league games in a 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace.

Wolves' Raul Jimenez (No 3) scored twice during a convincing 3-0 win over West Ham, with Joao Moutinho (No 8) assisting two goals and Diogo Jota (No 4) teeing up another.

Aleksander Mitrovic (No 5) charged up the chart after netting twice and a man-of-the-match display in Fulham's 4-2 win against Brighton, while team-mate Callum Chambers (No 18) fired a stunner from range.

Paul Pogba (No 6) slipped five places after spending four weeks atop the chart, despite converting a late penalty before Victor Lindelof (No 22) scored a stoppage-time leveller.in Manchester United's 2-2 draw with Burnley.
