Another extremely talented player who struggles for consistency, Leroy Fer thrilled and frustrated fans in equal measure this season which was one of the major reasons for the Swansea's struggle in the league this season.

The former QPR and Norwich midfielder makes the Swans tick with his incisive passing and box-to-box running and was instrumental in home wins over Arsenal and Liverpool this season.

If not for Fer's season-ending injury, Swansea might have stayed up this season. Such was his importance to this Swans side who are devoid of creativity without him.

Stats

Despite playing only 20 games due to various injuries, Fer has been Swansea's best midfielder this season which shows how much they missed him in his absence.

Leroy Fer had a high pass completion rate of 81% and created 10 chances while making 9 key passes, providing 1 assist and scoring a single goal this season.

But his importance to Swans side goes beyond goals and assists as he has attempted the most passes among his teammate.

He has won 55% of his attempted duels and a league-high 65% of his aerial duels while making 4 blocks and 12 interceptions showcasing his all-round importance to the team.
