2. Diego Costa – Chelsea
Had it not have been for injury in the second-half of the season, the former Atletico Madrid star would no doubt have seriously challenged Aguero for the Golden Boot.
Next season could once again be defined by the goalscoring form of the duo, and with Radamel Falcao to compete with at Stamford Bridge, Costa may be even more fired up to perform for the Premier League champions.
1. Sergio Aguero – Manchester City
It’s quite unbelievable that the Argentina forward didn’t make into the PFA Team of the Year – but Aguero doesn’t appear to be a player driven by personal accolades – making his stunning form since arriving in Manchester four years ago all the more impressive.
Manuel Pellegrini’s men simply weren’t good enough to challenge Chelsea for the title last season, but it mustn’t be forgotten that the Chile manager was without his star forward for eight games over the crucial festive period.
Aguero vs. Costa could be one of the most exciting battles next season.
