Watford FC v Manchester United - Premier League
Paul Pogba

Though some hardcore Manchester United fans may not agree to his inclusion on the list, the Frenchman is certainly one of the best in his position at the moment. It was clearly evident in the 2018 World Cup when Didier Deschamps gave him the freedom to play his natural game. Pogba was one of France’s best performers in the tournament with 2.2 tackles, 1.5 key passes, and 1.3 successful dribbles per game.

Pogba is a versatile midfielder, but extremely effective on the left side of a three-man midfield. A powerful midfielder, Pogba is physically strong and unbelievably good with the ball at his feet. He possesses brilliant technique, is excellent at dribbling, and almost unbeatable in the air. Pogba has started 2018-19 in stunning fashion with 4 goals and an assist in just 6 games for Manchester United.
