2014 has been an excellent year for the star forwards in football and we have seen goals being scored in large numbers. We look at 10 top forwards in European club football and their performances in the calendar year 2014.Honourable mentions: Robert Lewandowski, Luis Suarez, Jackson Martinez, Neymar and Alexandre Lacazette. These players have either been good in the second half of last season or the first half of the current one but not in the whole of 2014.(Matches from January 1, 2014 to December 7, 2014 in competitive club football only have been considered.

#10 Carlos Tevez (Juventus)
21 goals and 9 assists from 44 appearances
After a successful but controversy-filled stint in England with 3 different clubs, Tevez seems to have found stability in Italy with Juventus. The Argentine was named the club’s Player of the Year for 2013-14 season as his performances helped the club win the Serie A title.
Tevez has been in good goalscoring form this season too and is currently the leading goalscorer in the Italian league with 9 goals.
