Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is aiming for the Golden Boot this season.
The Gabon striker is second alongside Harry Kane, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane with 17 goals for the season.
These four players are just one of the players behind leader Sergio Aguero with eight games to play.
The golden boot race should prove to be one of five, or even Raheem Sterling – currently 15 goals – which should make him lose his trophy at the end of the season.
But it is not only the number of goals scored that deserve to be examined, but also the importance of these goals for their side.
And in this respect, the Arsenal striker Aubameyang is more important than the rest.

According to sportingbet, the 29-year-old Borussia Dortmund's former leader has had the biggest impact on his team this season: he has a lot more influence than the other players looking for the Golden Boot.
Without Aubameyang, the Gunners would be much worse.
Aubameyang's goals have allowed Arsenal to win more points than any other goalscorer this season. His 17 goals were directly responsible for the Gunners' victory by 14 points more than they would have done without him.
The only other Premier League player to have had this kind of impact is Newcastle's Salomon Rondon, without which the Magpies would have 12 points less.
