7)Nathaniel Clyne (Southampton)
Since signing from Crystal Palace last summer, Clyne has taken his opportunity in the premier league and grabbed it with both hands. He was a key part to Southampton staying up last season, playing 34 out of Southampton’s 38 Premiership matches. Clyne is exceptionally quick, which aids him in both providing runs on the overlap and tracking back. He reads the game well and is a great passer of the ball. His work rate is second-rate, making him a firm favourite with both the fans and the manager.In the 2010–11 season, Clyne was the youngest player in the Football League to play every single game of that campaign, and won the Crystal Palace’s Player of the Year award.
