#4 Nick Pope (Burnley)
If anyone had said at the beginning of the season that Burnley would not miss Tom Heaton in the event that he gets injured, such a person would have had to be committed to a mental institution.
Such is the England international's influence in the Clarets' team that when he suffered a dislocated shoulder injury in a 1-0 win over Crystal Palace in September 2017, manager Sean Dyche rushed to sign former Manchester United goalie Anders Lindegaard.
He need not have worried, the perfect replacement for Heaton was already on the bench.
Since making his debut in the same game against Palace, Pope has made the Number One shirt his pulling off a string of impressive performances that have left Lindegaard firmly planted on the subs bench.
Agile, quick off his feet and a keen sense for organizing the defence, Pope has been a big factor in Burnley's impressive run in the league.
It would be a surprise if he remains as the backup to Heaton next season as other Premier League clubs have already begun to make inquiries about his services.
