It's not always easy to judge a player over the course of an entire campaign, but there have been plenty of candidates throughout the term, including this current crop of names, as DAZN News counts down the Premier League's current most in-form stars. 

Benjamin Sesko (Manchester United)

Old Trafford is the home to a plethora of bang-in-form names, including Bruno Fernandes, Kobbie Mainoo and Senne Lemmans, but the club's matchwinner is becoming their big man up top. 

Since Michael Carrick has come in, Sesko has become the go-to guy for the interim boss, having doubled his goals tally for the season. 

The Slovenian's goals from the bench against Fulham, West Ham and Everton saw United accrue seven points, and it was rewarded with a start on Sunday, where he again netted the winner. 

No one seems to have latched on to Carrick's feel-good factor more than the striker, who's suddenly become the focal point in the Red Devils' attack they'd be looking for.

Antoine Semenyo (Manchester City) 

Already looking like one of the great January window buys, Semenyo has carried on the form we'd seen at Bournemouth and made a seamless transition into Pep Guardiola's side. 

Starting with a goal on his debut in the FA Cup drubbing of Exeter, the Ghanaian international has netted six goals in all competitions, as well as racking up two assists in his short time in Manchester. 

His ability to be as effective with both feet and adaptation into the City fold has made him one of the most dangerous attackers in the league, and he is surely a shoo-in for team of the season. 

It also looks like City have finally found a player who gives them the same speed and directness that Raheem Sterling did, having been so undervalued until he left The Etihad.

Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool) 

Liverpool seem to be finally finding some rhythm at the right stage of the season following a title defence that went up in flames pretty quickly in 2025. 

The win over West Ham was a third on the bounce, and while it feels like some of their attacking talent are hitting all the right notes, it's at the back where they've looked more like themselves. 

Ibrahima Konate has found his way out of his rough patch, but alongside him, Van Djik has also regained that aura that has surrounded a player who's been compared to some of the best-ever in his position. 

Leading by example both at the back, as well as at the other end too, where he scored a winner at Sunderland and followed that with another goal against the Hammers.

Harry Wilson (Fulham)

It's been a season of a lifetime for the former Liverpool academy star, who's used the current campaign as a season-long advert to show why the club should give him a new contract this summer. 

The Welsh winger has hit double figures in goals across all competitions for the first time in his top-flight career, including four goals and three assists since the turn of the year. 

His goals have not only been of high quality, too, but have also meant that Fulham have benefited from them in points. Only one of Wilson's nine goals has been in a Cottagers defeat. 

The 28-year-old's latest showing against Spurs, when he scored and assisted, is the exact reason why his contract situation is being monitored by several clubs.

Joao Pedro (Chelsea) 

The Brazilian's impact has gone somewhat under the radar in his first season at Stamford Bridge, but he's been one of Chelsea's best players in 2025-26 - particularly since the turn of the year. 

Pedro has nine goal involvements in the Premier League across January and February, with Sunday the first time he hadn't scored or assisted in a league game since the start of the year. 

Used in several attacking positions by Chelsea this season, his effectiveness has been key to their attack and as erratic as the West London's appear to be at times, the forward continues to contribute. 

He'll play a massive part in the club's bid for a Champions League place for the remainder of the campaign.
