Best left-back in the PL?

The former Sunderland and Bolton player had to deal with a lot of criticism when his transfer to Chelsea was announced in summer of 2016. He has never looked back since.

His performances for Antonio Conte's side have been terrific to say the least. The former Fiorentina man has scored 7 goals and provided 3 assists for the London outfit this season. He also has an eye for the occasional freekick goal.

His style suits the formation that Antonio Conte likes to play with as he gallops down the left flank and joins in attack while also completing his defensive duties as a wing back in Conte's version of the 3-4-3.

His marauding runs down the left have also enabled Eden Hazard to drift inwards and inflict damage where he can best do it from.
