#4 Declan Rice (West Ham United):
After coming through the ranks at West Ham United, Rice has become one of the integral members of Manuel Pellegrini's squad this season. The 20-year-old has made 36 appearances for the Hammers this season and has been hugely impressive in the defensive-midfield role. The tenacious midfielder is averaging 2.9 tackles and 1.6 interceptions in the middle of the park for West Ham this season. The England international is one of the nominees for the PFA Young Player of the Year following his brilliant performances for the Hammers this season.
#3 Aaron Wan Bissaka (Crystal Palace):
Aaron Wan-Bissaka has developed into one of the hottest properties across Europe this season. The 20-year-old has been one of the best right-backs in the Premier League this season and the underlying stats back our claim. He is averaging an incredible 3.8 tackles and 2.4 interceptions per game in the Premier League this season, more than any other full-back in the Premier League. His blistering pace makes it difficult for wingers to beat him in 1v1 situations. Wan Bissaka is nominated for the PFA Young Player of the Year and will be amongst the favourites to lift the prestigious award.
