Willian is a right back.

Off course, I am aware of Kone's contribution. But, I don't think he is anywhere as good as the other strikers or forwards in the top half of that table. Not sure why you're so miffed about this list either.
=========
But you claim you based the list off of contributions (ie assists and goals) - and Kone has contributed more than many in the list rated the same or better than him.

Either it is based on the contributions this season or it is based on your personal opinion - yet this seems a mish mash without any consistent criteria followed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Your opinion fella, I am not convinced by Kone despite having a better scoring records so far. I am not sure he can keep it up, that's what I am saying, considering three of his goals came against a poor Sunderland side

Your opinion fella,

Nope. Your criteria and facts are not my my opinion.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
TBH, Willian can play position. But his regular position is forward

You say it is based on form so far.
Form, you say, is based on contributions this season - defined by you as goals and assists.

Yet now you are saying Kone is low because of how you predict his future?

Nah, not convinced at all. Three out of his five goals came against Sunderland

Not sure how you can have players like : Wijnaldum, Willian, Mane and not players like Ozil, Eriksen, Lamela etc
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Neither of the above (well apart from Willian) are strikers or forwards
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wijnaldum Is an attacking midfielder same as Ozil & Eriksen. Mane is a wide forward same as Lamela.

Very inconsistent list

He spends most of the time in his own half defending. That's not a forward. Got good at free kicks, though. Brazilian fullbacks seen to be good at them.

Coutinho?

I gave you a valid reason, explaining why he is not in the same bracket as the other strikers and forwards ahead of him on that list. But you refused point blank to acknowlege it.

Now tell me? Why do you think his hatrick against a poor Sunderland side merits a contribution, where Everton thrashed them 6-2. What about the other 14 odd games , what was his overall contribution these matches this season ?

He is a midfielder, isn"t he ? Good player though

Willian a 4/10? Thought he was supposed to be one of Chelsea's best players?

Some of those I don't agree with. Think your top 5 is pretty accurate, but I'd add De Bruyne and give him a 9 as well.

I used your criteria!

Why are Kone's 5 goals and 3 assists worth less than Berahino's goal against Sunderland and goal at bottom of the table Villa - plus one more and no assists?

He has been, but four out of ten is fair, just shows how shiiiit they've been.

Loriks criteria:
How would you rate these Premier League strikers and forwards based on their current form this season, so far ?
========
Loriks later justification:
'I am not sure he can keep it up, that's what I am saying'

Hardly basing it on current form!

My rating is based on the contributions (i.e. assists and goals),

Sorry, but you are having a mare.

I've not seem that much of Kone this season but from what I have it's way off having him level with Depay.

Not only are the stats not in his favour, Depay's performances have been shocking.

Kone should be higher.

He has scored 5 so far this season, and 3 of his goals were scored whilst thrashing a poor Sunderland side. Which is an indication that he is not an inconsistent striker

Harry Kane scored a hattrick in a thrashing of a poor Bournemouth side.
