Arsenal?
I'd have Aubameyang about 5 places higher up on that list. He'd probably have double his current goal tally if his game wasn't so one-dimensional.
Lacazette's placement seems fair. So does Ramsey's.
Can't really make a case for anyone else in the squad.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So Aub should be higher based on the idea that he should have scored more goals if he wasn't that limited?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He warrants a higher spot cause of his goal tally, and the fact that he's stayed comparatively efficient despite having the first touch of a baby elephant.
His obvious shortcomings, coupled with those of the squad he plays in, just make his season that much more remarkable.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Having more limitations should mean you're lower down the list, not higher. Very bizzare logic you're using here.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm just trying to make a case for a list purely based on individual player stats this season.
Otherwise we may just as well settle for a Top 20 made up of the usual charismatic names like De Bruyne and Hazard.

No De Bruyne in the whole list??
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He's missed many games through injury

It should just be on performances though surely?

Sorry, 49 players have been better than Sissoko this season ?? not saying top 10 or anything, but come on, he has been good all season, and immense in several matches.
Who compiled this list ? oh yeah a scouser.

Actually the magazine 442 did so your little Scouser jibe is looking a bit stupid now.

He has played some games this season. But in any event it's a daft, though fun, idea, that you can rank fifty players in order
