7 underrated players in the top 7 teams in the Premier League

Fernandinho Luiz Roza – Manchester City

Fernandinho

Yaya Toure again proved his worth with his powerful running and newly found free-kick technique. Sergio Aguero found his goal scoring touch he displayed in title winning campaign. David Silva and Samir Nasri created a host of chances as expected. Jesus Navas along with Alvaro Negredo produced much anticipated performances for the citizens.

But, the big money signing from Shakhtar Donetsk did his job consistently since he wore the blue jersey. He has been the quiet dictator that links the defense and midfield superbly. He not only protects the back four but also scores quality goals. E.g. He put his best performance against the league leaders at Etihad where he demonstrated skill,technique and composure excellently.

His ability and quality had got the best out of Yaya Toure. Don’t believe me? Just put either Javi Garcia or Jack Rodwell in Fernandinho’s place and think. You will get the answer.

Gary Cahill – Chelsea

Gary Cahill

Big money signing Willian slowly got recognized. John Terry consistently demonstrated the class, energy and determination he is known for. Frank Lampard proved why he is such a valuable player. Eden Hazard, 35m attacking midfielder, snatched the front and back pages of the news papers.

But it was, Gary Cahill, the former Bolton man, worked hard and produced regularity in his performances to keep David Luiz out of the starting 11. He possesses good aerial ability, good pace and reads the game well.

He compliments John Terry perfectly. Don’t believe me? Take a look at the way Chelsea conceded the goal against Crystal Palace at Stamford bridge in the absence of Gary Cahill
