Ben Chilwell has been getting a lot of plaudits for his performances this season. The 22-year-old, who came through the ranks at Leicester City, has established himself as one of the stand-out full-backs in the Premier League and has been a pivotal figure in Leicester City's high-flying start to this season.

The left-back has really benefitted from the attacking system Brendon Rodgers has implemented at the club, which allows him to play further up the pitch and display his attacking prowess. Chilwell is renowned for his vicious delivery into the box and his ability to take on the opposition. Moreover, his link-up play and ability to win the ball aerially remains an underrated part of his game.

Chilwell perfectly fits Manchester United's new model of recruiting young, talented players and could be the final piece in the jigsaw at the back for the Red Devils. Manchester United are in desperate need of a full-back who can heavily contribute in the final third of the pitch, and the 22-year-old seems like the perfect long-term solution to their left-back issue.
