50. Clint Dempsey

With Fulham enjoying a solid yet unspectacular season, Clint Dempsey was a constant shining light for the west London outfit last term. Enjoying his finest campaign as a professional to date, the USA international scored 23 times in all competitions from midfield – enjoying a strike rate of one in two, making him the most prolific player in his position around Europe. The 29-year-old scored crucial goals versus Liverpool and Chelsea during the season, while also enjoying a superb January where he registered two hat-tricks against Charlton in the FA Cup and Newcastle in the league. On last term’s performances, Fulham will struggle to hold on to their prized asset with Liverpool heavily linked with the free-scoring star.

Moment of the Season - Netted a superb second-half hat-trick versus Newcastle in a 5-2 victory in January to put a serious dent in Alan Pardew's men's hopes of securing Champions League football.

TOTAL	50	25	8

Editor's view - "Watching him come of age this season with a remarkable 17 league goals from midfield and at times single-handedly carrying a Fulham side that was adjusting to Martin Jol’s tenure as the Cottagers boss was a delight. Small wonder the American is attracting interest from the likes of Liverpool." - Sam Lyon - Chief editor of Goal.com UK
