Premier League: 5 mid-table players who should be playing in a top-six side

5. Wilfried Zaha

Crystal Palace v AFC Bournemouth - Premier League

Zaha was hyped since his early days as he was, after all, Sir Alex Ferguson’s last-ever signing. However, after Sir Alex’s retirement, the winger was not able to impress either of the next two managers, David Moyes and Louis Van Gaal. As a result the Ivorian was sent out on loan spells at Cardiff City and Crystal Palace before finally completing a permanent move to the Selhurst Park in 2015.

Since then, the winger has played under various managers and improved season after season and now finally seems to on course to realize his potential. The 26-year-old was the talisman for the Eagles this season by contributing to 14 goals, scoring 10 and creating 4.

With his lightning-fast pace, solid strength and amazing dribbling skills, the Ivorian is ready for bigger challenges at the European stage. He can be an ideal fit in teams like Manchester United and Arsenal who are in dire need of a quality winger.
