Prolific striker David Villa was at it again yesterday as he powered Valencia to a 4:1 win over Villarreal in La Liga with a hat-trick. He is back as the world’s top striker in the FTBL ranking.

The Spain international now has an overall score of 219.23 points and has overtaken Bayern Munich’s Mario Gómez (216.53 points). Villa picked up approximately 33 rating points in yesterday’s game, but the high plank he face in the game reduced his take to just 13.85 points.
