#5 Dwight McNeil (Burnley)

Burnley aren't known to be a great talent producer, but with Dwight McNeil they have a player who looks set to excite fans for at least a decade. The Rochdale-born player was one of the biggest reasons why Burnley overcame a difficult start last season to secure another year of Premier League football. Sean Dyche's team picked up 28 of 40 points since December 30, which is when McNeil was promoted to the starting lineup.

McNeil, who was rejected by Manchester United at an early age, had three goals and five assists in 15 games before cooling off in the final few rounds of the season. Playing mainly on the left wing, McNeil linked up superbly with forwards Ashley Barnes and Chris Wood, who both ended up with double figures in goals.

McNeil looks capable of getting 10-plus goals himself if he manages to spend a whole season in the starting XI.
