#3 The evergreen Mandzukic

Mario Mandzukic put in another brilliant performance alongside Cristiano Ronaldo. The two seem to be forming quite a partnership as the Croatian international has taken his game to another level since the Portuguese's arrival from Real Madrid.

Mandzukic may be nearing 33, but his importance seems to be growing with each passing game, and he's aging like the finest of wines, making more and more telling impacts in games. The striker seems to have found a home in Turin and he is giving more and more for the fans who love singing their beloved Croat's name every time he scores a goal or puts in a challenge.

The striker must surely be offered a new deal by Juventus, given his current contract is set to expire at the end of next season. He also scored for Juventus in their narrow 1-0 win over Inter.
