The Spaniard is way ahead of the other Spanish players to have graced the Premier League, mostly due to his free scoring time at Liverpool. The 30-year-old is rivalled for the accolade by Arsenal and Manchester United players in the top six…

6) Michu, Swansea City, 20 goals 

The attacking midfielder had a brilliant start at the Swans, but struggled in his second season and was sent out on loan to Napoli.

5) David Silva, Manchester City, 27 goals

The 28-year-old is key to the Citizens chances of silverware in any competition, and although one of the few criticisms against him is the fact that he should score more goals he still has enough to feature here.

4) Juan Mata, Chelsea/Manchester United, 29 goals

Signed for the Red Devils from their Premier League rivals last January, Mata has continued to score fairly regularly.

3) Cesc Fabregas, Arsenal/Chelsea, 37 goals

The midfielder also had a period of time at Barcelona, but has had the most personal success while in the Premier League. He is now driving the Blues forward in the title race.

2) Mikel Arteta, Everton/Arsenal, 41 goals

The former Toffee scored most of his goals while at Goodison Park, where he was chief set piece taker. He has since been playing a deeper role at the Gunners, but still chips in with the odd penalty.

1) Fernando Torres, Liverpool/Chelsea, 85 goals

Now moving back to where it all began at Atletico Madrid, Torres was amazingly prolific while playing at Anfield. His time at Chelsea was mostly memorable for the wrong reasons, but was still part of the team that won the Champions League.
