Tottenham's Harry Kane tops the Sky Sports Power Rankings

By Adam Smith

Tottenham's Harry Kane tops the Sky Sports Power Rankings for a second successive week after scoring twice in Tottenham's 3-0 win against Bournemouth.

The England striker has scored five goals in his past three Premier League games, helping Spurs keep within five points of leaders Leicester and six points clear of London rivals Arsenal.

Team-mates Kyle Walker (No 5, up 11 places) and Danny Rose (No 8, up two places) also made the Power Rankings top 10 this week, with the former assisting Kane's first goal against the Cherries.

However, it is Leicester who dominate the rankings after the Foxes maintained their title charge with a 1-0 win at Crystal Palace. Goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel (No 2, up two places), Riyad Mahrez (No 6, up one place), Wes Morgan (No 7, up eight places), Robert Huth (No 9, down six places) and Christian Fuchs (No 10, down two places) all made the top 10.

Southampton striker Graziano Pelle fired himself 23 places up the charts to No 3 after scoring his third goal in two league games and assisting half-time substitute Sadio Mane twice to defeat Liverpool 3-2, while Saints defender Virgil van Dijk finished at No 4.
