5 Best Creators in this Season's Champions League

Manchester City v Huddersfield Town - Premier League
De Bruyne has played a pivotal role in City's Premier League triumph this season

#4 Ever Banega

Sevilla v FC Barcelona - La Liga
Banega has been a reliable player for Sevilla on the field

The lynchpin of the Sevilla's attack, Argentinian Centre Midfielder Ever Banega was absolutely crucial in every game.

His contribution created numerous attacks through the pitch and his awareness on the ball means that he is reliable in possession.

Contributing with an average of 3.7 key passes per 90 minutes, Banega is essentially top of the charts.

His creativity has often won rave reviews and his proficiency in dead ball situations means that he pops up with the odd goal or so despite playing most of his games as a deep-lying Playmaker.

The only factor that lets Banega down is his assists record.

It is not completely fair on Banega because of the lack of an absolute world-class strike force to play off like De Bruyne but he failed to set the world alight in earlier parts of the tournament especially in the away win against Spartak despite the team doing well and the draw against Liverpool at Anfield.

He more than made up for it later with a stunning performance against Bayern Munich and Manchester United.
