Top 5 players in the Premier League this season

#1 Kevin de Bruyne

Kevin de Bruyne is the most important player at Manchester City

Manchester City has won the admiration of the whole world thanks to the beautiful team-football that they have been showing throughout the course of this campaign. And there is no doubt that Kevin de Bruyne is the brain of the league leaders, as he makes the difference for them in almost every high-profile fixture.

De Bruyne is the complete footballer, capable of playing at almost any position in midfield and in the attack, thanks to his impeccable technique, elegant first touch, and sensational vision. He always manages to play the right pass, to the right player, at the right time.

The Belgium international has found the net on 11 different occasions this season, in addition to 18 assists, which is almost beyond imagination. De Bruyne can do it all, and he is rightfully the best player in England as well as the best midfielder in the world at the moment.

Manchester City winning the EPL this season is a matter of when rather than if, but the biggest challenge remains the UEFA Champions League. With De Bruyne orchestrating their midfield and Pep Guardiola organizing their tactical-scheme, they are certainly one of the main candidates.
