What a signing! Bruno Fernandes' £47 million move from Sporting Lisbon to Manchester United this January has changed the fortunes of the Red Devils.

Fernandes has added much-needed creativity and confidence from midfield, taking over the role of talisman for the club. The Portugal international's blossoming midfield partnership with Paul Pogba has also been much talked about.

Fernandes is yet to lose a game in the Premier League. The 25-year old has made 11 appearances in the league, scoring seven goals and providing seven assists. He leads the Manchester United squad for shots per game as well as key passes per game.


#2 JORDAN HENDERSON, LIVERPOOL

Jordan Henderson has captained Liverpool to a Premier League triumph, something which even the legendary Steven Gerrard couldn't do.

The 30-year old joined Liverpool from Sunderland in 2011 for a fee of £20 million. Nearly leaving the club after a poor first season, Henderson buckled down and worked hard. He has flourished in subsequent years, especially under Jurgen Klopp. While his name was linked with the PFA Player of the Year for some time, that seems to have died down.

The England international has made 30 appearances in the league this season, scoring four goals and providing five assists.


#1 KEVIN DE BRUYNE, MANCHESTER CITY

What a player! Many scoffed when Manchester City paid £54 million to Wolfsburg for Kevin de Bruyne in 2015. Now, the 29-year old is regarded as one of the best players in the world.

Arguably the best player in the Premier League right now, De Bruyne has been in fine form for Manchester City this season. A creative powerhouse, the Belgium international's passing and vision have stood out, once again.

The former Chelsea man has played 33 games in the league this season, scoring 11 goals and providing 18 assists. He leads the Manchester City squad for key passes per game, as well as crosses per game.
