#1 David de Gea (Spain)
We are just running out of superlatives to describe the performances of this man for his club Manchester United. David de Gea has, time and again, delivered when it has mattered the most and his stunning saves are what keep United's flag flying high.
The 27-year old holds a stunning record of winning Manchester United’s Player of the Season award in four of the last five years and this demonstrates how important the shot-stopper is for the Red Devils.
One trophy that continued to elude him was the Premier League Golden Glove award, and sensational performances saw him finally grab hold of that award. De Gea will now have his sight firmly set on the equivalent award in the World Cup in Russia.
The Spanish side possesses one of the strongest backlines in the tournament and with the presence of David de Gea at the back, this Spanish defence might be too difficult to breach for oppositions in Russia.
Expect all eyes to be on the Spanish shot-stopper as Spain prepare for a promising World Cup run.
