As much as we like to laud other aspects of the game such as defence and passing, football is mostly all about goal scoring as following the popular quip, "goals win games".

Some top attackers have managed to consolidate their mastery of the art of goal scoring and it is these kinds of players that this list seeks to celebrate.

Surprisingly, there are players that didn't make the cut this time around owing to their poor form; these include the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Barcelona's Luis Suarez.

#10 Nabil Fekir (Lyon)

Everton FC v Olympique Lyon - UEFA Europa League
Fekir has been awesome this season

Bet you didn't see this one coming right? The Frenchman has been in red-hot form this season, powering Lyon to joint 2nd place in Ligue 1 with 35 points and edging past defending champions AS Monaco on goal difference.

He has been instrumental in the team's attack this season and alongside teammates like Memphis Depay and Mariano Diaz- he has shone brightly as one of the best young attackers in football and has scored 14 goals in all competitions.

Fekir has attracted attention from clubs all over Europe like Arsenal and with his return to form, it is easy to see why.

He was fantastic in the victory over Metz with 2 goals on the day and was instrumental in the team's 5-0 demolition of St Etienne with a further 2 goals and an assist.
