Top 5 midfielders in Europe in 2017/18

Chelsea v Manchester City - Premier League
Is he the best midfielder this season?

#2 David Silva - Manchester City

Manchester City v Crystal Palace - Premier League
Younger than ever!

David Silva is a Spanish international who has been a part of City's squads for a long period of owner and Qatari prince Sheikh Mansour's revolution. A player who in many critics' opinions is quite underrated, he has always been the one to stay back and let his team-mates get all the appreciation.

More often playing as a central attacking midfielder, the World Cup winner has changed his game to a well rounded one under master tactician Pep Guardiola, making him a complete player rather than just someone who plays the magical passes.

The former Valencia man, along with teammate Kevin De Bruyne has been a constant in the City squad that effectively rotates a lot of the squad.

At the age of 32, Silva is in the twilight of his illustrious career, but he is performing as if he was his youngest ever self, scoring 10 goals and providing 13 assists in the process.
