#2 Kevin de Bruyne (Manchester City) 14 assists in 30 games

Manchester City v Leicester City - Premier League
De Bruyne has been the central figure this season at City

Another Manchester City star makes the cut and this time it's none other than Kevin de Bruyne. The ex-Chelsea player leads the Premier League to assist chart with 14 assists and is in second place in Europe's top 5 leagues.

The Belgian has been at the heart of everything good about City this season and Pep Guardiola is playing to his strengths.

He has two wingers in Raheem Sterling and Leroy Sane who stay wide and use their pace to beat their man and connect with de Bruyne's through balls. He is also City's designated set-piece taker.

His crossing and passing abilities have drawn comparisons with the legendary David Beckham as well.

There is no doubt that City will be banking on him as they look to seal the league title in a few week's time and progress into the semi-finals of the Champions League.
