Wilfried Zaha is a well-known, reliable and proven Premier League player. Born in Ivory Coast, the 26-year-old has showcased his skills time after time in Crystal Palace and Manchester United outfit. He came up from the Crystal Palace academy and joined Manchester United for reported £10 million, Sir Alex Ferguson's last signing before retirement at the end of the season but eventually went back to the Eagles after not getting sufficient time off the bench.

Zaha's fancy game style is often judged as showboating but it has proved effective time after time. The lack of quality strikers around him makes him look like a not-so-good winger which provides his underrated nature. He has played 28 times for the Eagles and has scored 8 times while assisting 5 times. He has a decent record of 76.5% passing average, winning 5 Man Of The Match while maintaining a 7.16 average score throughout the season.

With his skills and an eye for the attack, he will prove to be the perfect replacement for Sarri if Hazard decides to leave, providing the same balance for the club.
