In a star-studded squad like that of Manchester City, it is very difficult to be a breakout performer. However, if you have watched Bernardo Silva play this season for City, you'll know he has been an absolute joy to the eyes of fans and neutrals alike.

A versatile player with a devastating left foot, Silva can play as a winger on either flank as well as in a midfield role. He has been one of the key players in City's run to a second consecutive Premier League title, finishing the season with 7 goals and 7 assists.

However, it is not the numbers, but his personality and resilience that define him. He has been a catalyst in many of City's hard-fought wins.

Full of energy, enthusiasm and creativity, the Portuguese international has been the essence of what Guardiola and City represent: excellence with beauty.
