#1 Kevin De Bruyne - Manchester City
Kevin De Bruyne is convincingly the best midfielder in the English top-tier right now. The Belgian international is the personification of how Qatar backed Manchester City's transfer tactics have turned them into one of the best teams in the land.
Bought in the summer of 2015 from Wolfsburg in Germany, the former Chelsea man leads the table in both assists (19) and key passes per game this season scoring 13 goals in the process, just showing how much influence he has on a City side that is breaking records this season. He even has the most number of assists in the English Premier League since he joined.
With his prime years still ahead of him, the blue half of Manchester has found a gem and the sky is the limit in his career now.
